Default What is a good age to start breaking a youngen?

Well most of you know about Lacey (yearling) our new Riding Pony, I just wanted to pick people's brain on when is a good time/age to start training/educating her, wither it be under saddle, lunging, mouthing, anything really. Nothing hard, just nice & easy stuff, as Britney wants to do some of it with her & I don't know what to start her off with, she is doing lots of leading, brushing, picking feet up, tying her up, etc etc.

No!! I am not going out to start riding her, I just wanted to know how much we can do with her without hurting her & what is best to start off with 1st?. She will be Britney's riding pony in the future, hopefully she will get to 12.2hh's, finger crossed. How can I tell what height she may reach?

Thanks for all your help.
