6yo 16.3hh Chestnut. Very good eventing breeding mother is a 4* horse in top 200 mares of all time. Green but willing. I jumped him tonight and he was fine. Sweet natured good to do everything as you can tell his mane got pulled tonight.

Not the best photos

Think could do with some TLC, looks heaps better just after a mane pull!! I reckon 3K. That's how much we paid for ours a year ago, same age, green but not the same type of breeding?
 
It really would be impossible to say without some pictures to show movement. As he stands there 3K to 3.5K but if he has done anything at all (just to show he can go out and cope with parties) it would start to go up, I think. Those pictures do him no favours
 
Not very much at all!
Hes Green and done nothing. Just because his mother jumps doesnt mean to say he will do well.
tbh i wouldnt pay more than about £1500/£2000
 
photos really do not do him justice,if i was to go on photos supplied not a great deal,however if you can get some action shots and shots of him stood squarely you can get better idea of conformation etc!!

Who is his sire? Has he not done much if he is still green at 6? Looks a nice sort and having a nice temperment helps. Sorry no idea on price though - around 4k?
 
Not sure if his neck looks far too long for his body or is that just the camera and lack of muscle?
I like him- he has good limbs, confo looks very good, ( aside from the neck) and in one pic he looks like he's got a really powerfull hindquarter, and most of all he has such a genuine face.
Hard to comment on price until I've seen what his natural athleticsm and balance is like!
 
He was bought for £850 so not worth much more than that. Proves if you look you do not have to pay stupid prices. There is nothing wrong with him either except being green and lacking muscle. He was bought 2 weeks ago.

Just proves that these ridiculous prices are just that. This horse will probably come to me in March so will take some updated photos as he needs all the basics working on and I have not got the time to do that so the owners can.

That was an exceptionally lucky buy, effectively meat money for a untouched young horse that is very well bred. I think that everyone would agree that the new owners are very lucky indeed!
