A how much (sorry)

[Serephin]

how much for a 15.2 irish skewbald gelding, 8 years old, light to medium weight. Hasn't done much for the past year, just gentle hacking on the roads - previously hunted, xc schooling bit of sj and dressage (knows flying changes) - has no topline or muscle now though. Pretty sensible laid back chap.

any suggestions?

thanks!

Around 3k ish.

Mmm, difficult one. Sounds like a nice little horse and I know people will pay more simply because of the colour.

If it were say bay then I would say around the 1.5k mark as it is out of work/in very light work and has no competition record etc. People will not be able to see what the horse is really capable of.

Then add the fact that its skewbald, I think you can perhaps add another 1.5k on top of that. Purely because it is something people want.

If it were me, I would put it up for a slightly higher price than you would be happy with.

3.5-4k. He sounds like a lovely lad. IMO lack of muscle shouldn't matter in the price if he is healthy as anyone looking at him should be seeing what he could be not what he currently is.

because he is coloured about 4k

As he is coloured around 3K, I agree that lack of topline shouldn't really affect price if healthy in every other way

I'd pay about £2500- £3K max

Around 3k I would think.
