thank you i dont know what to do so rough estimates please.
 
does he hack out alone in company?
come with tack?

im no good at this but 2500? as a srab in the dark!

he's very handsome by the way :)
 
Do you mean two years? Not two hours??

Hard to say without knowing his breeding or his potential - what are his paces like and how scopey is he? Nice allrounder type or serious affiliated ability?

Looks like a nice enough boy from the pics - so depending on his potential he is prob worth anything from £3500 - £6500 or so. However if she has loaned him for two years and taken him from just backed to the horse he is now, then I would give her mates rates - so probably 1-2k less than you would sell for on the open market.
 
with tack and rugs then i'd say 4k tops. he is stunning but he hasn't done that much.

plus mates rates and all that!!
 
i think to your loaner it has to be mates rates as she has appeared to have done most of the producing, to some else i would be higher, so i would say 2.5 ish or try 3.5 ish open market
 
How long has she loaned him?
How much of his training and experience to date is a result of her work?
Are you wanting to sell him and get max money, or is she asking to buy him and would you like to be fair to her?
 
Just a thought....... If you had sent him to someone on selling livery, you would have paid his keep, and then the agent would have got around 10% of ultimate selling price on top. Perhaps, then, an open market valuation, then minus 20% ish?
 
If you don't really want to sell him then don't.

You have no obligation, amazing bond or not. If you are happy as things are then leave them as they are, or if you want him back well that is an option too and the downside of loaning as the loanee but not your downside.

If he is treated kindly and fairly handled daily by the same person he will form that amazing bond again.
 
As above really, if you dont want to sell him then dont because you'll regret it in the long run... Why not offer a permanent/long term loan. so she is basically your loaners horse, but at the end of the day he'll remain in your name. At least then you'll have the piece of mind that if anything was to happen to your loaner he'll come back to you rather then being sold!
