I'm hopeless on youngstock prices as I tend to go all gooey over the cutesy baby horsey but if it's a help, 5-6K ish? I don't know enough about the breeding on her dam's side to be more specific - obviously if the WB breeding is good then you might be able to get more as people will pay for potential, espeically with a dressage baby. She does look very lovely!
 
I find it really difficult to put numbers on youngsters.

If she were very, very correct and special - and had been winning at county level then possibly quite a bit.

But I have to say that whilst she is lovely, she doesn't (to me) have a real wow factor. Mum is very nice - don't know anything about the sire. So I would hesitatingly say around £3-4k perhaps, but I think that may be a tad high.....

hmm I find it hard also. I was sort of thinking £3k absolute maximum tbh.

She isn't world beating and I didn't breed her as such (or I would have chosen a bigger 'name' as a stallion). It is a shame I have nothing that shows her movement because that IS lovely. She will be going to BEF Futurity this year as I want to get some professional comment on her.

Mare has Lucky Boy & Nearco in her pedigree - is actually a jumper (ex Grade A) - stallion is an eventer but with dressage lines (wanted a bit more blood). His sire was a racehorse that eventually did Grand Prix

but I chose him because he complemented the mare very very well.

I think that would certainly price her to sell.
 
I would think you are spot on at £3k if you want to sell her. BTW her mum is absolutely gorgeous - a beautiful kind face and lovely big ears - I really like her alot

ah - thanks for all your nice comments folks.

The mare is an absolute star, and the first ever horse I purchased myself years ago.

Looks like 3.5k might be about right then
