A few weeks ago I asked for advice as to why I was having difficulty selling my horse thanks to all that replied with tips I have now got her on horse deals and she will be in next months magazine opinions on the new add.

Thanks in advance
 
I think selling horses is a bit like selling a house, for many buyers there is the aspirational aspect, so for the close up I would have been tempted to pretty her up a bit, and put her in a nice bridle or show halter. Having said that she looks very sweet and hopefully you will have some interest this time round
 
Thanks I cleaned her all up yesterday and have some lovley pics of her now plaited and in a bridle just trying to work out how I change the advert pics I would have waited to place the add but I didnt realise I would have the time to do it all yesterday
 
She is missing quiet a bit of her breeding. Sonny Steel is/was he a QH? And what was Bodie's breeding? It does help if you are mentioning the breeding to have at least 3 gens. It is a shame you could not have had a 3rd photo of her stood up, so her conformation could be seen. Is she rising 3yrs? Also has she been shown at all, if so that may have been something to mention. Good luck with selling her.
 
No need to answer, course she is rising 3 she is a 2005 foal. As for being expensive, that is why I mentioned the missing pedigree, because even for a coloured she may be overpriced in this market. People are not going to have the disposable incomes, not this year anyway, so I think horse prices along with houses, cars etc will suffer.
