A 14 stone person (Which equals 196 pounds) Needs a horse that is very sturdy in build and not over 16 hands high. Shorter horses are better able to carry heavier weights than taller horses. The horse should have at least 7 inches of bone below the knee and broad loins. A horse that is fit and weighing about 1200 to 1300 pounds should be able to carry a heavier rider.
