Hi all
I am currently contemplating buying an unbroked youngster, possibly a foal, as a long term project. However having never owned a foal before I was hoping for some advice on what to look for in a youngster, best places to look for one, potential pitfalls etc etc - basically any advice/experiences!
I am wanting something that will most importantly be a good allrounder but ideally to event (nothing to serious, prob just intro & PN). Temperament is very important and I want something that has personality but is trainable and reasonably sensible. Also, I dont want to pay too much - not bothered about a top pedigree, just something with a bit of potential.
Am I totally mad/wanting the impossible?!
Also, if anyone can point me in the direction of anything that would be great!
Thanks
