Anyone seen a nice cob type?

[Glitter's fun]

Have you spoken to Gee Gee Equestrian in Carlisle?
(Doesn't have many in at a time but reputation good, if she happens to have something you like.)

Thanks all sorry for slow response thought id found one but sold the viewing before me (on first viewing). I might have to start considering from ireland but like to sit on them first!

Set up a few then get a cheap flight?

I recently purchased from MPF horse talent (advertised via facebook) and, don't want to tempt fate by saying too much, but am very happy.
I tried one at Smart Performance Horses which was a good experience but horse didn’t suit me so didn’t buy.
Chris Dyson, Sovereign horses and ponies, usually has quite a few and is very honest. Very much worth a look on his fb page. He's at Newark, or may have moved now to Warwickshire.

After another duff and feeling a bit depleted, thought Id see if anyone fancies helping me find a nice cob type north england / south scotland. Hack alone in company, tolerates the school for an odd intro test and not half ugly to look at? 14.1-15.2

Yes saw one today, will try and find ad.

Was just coming on here to say Christina has some very nice cobs in.

Just heard that Solway Sports Horses (Wigton, Cumbria) has a nice steady 14.2 gelding in. Piebald, 5yo.
(No personal experience of them)

I've looked everywhere but I can't see him. It was a lovely 5 year old bay with a white blaze. I thought if he'd have been a hand bigger I'd have been interested. Gorgeous boy. I must have seen it on FB as I wouldn't have been sent the ad by friends as he was too small for me.

This is Dex's half brother (sire side) and he is in the North West... Dex has the best brain ever so I am totally biased.
Only 2 inches too big, which is nothing really haha

He is cheap if he is straight.

That’s a good Irish draughty cob type! Not going to set world alight over a fence but a good sort.

A friend has just shared a pic of a nice one.

Have a look at NB Equine

Natacha does get some very lovely cobs in and was my first thought but if she was any further from North England / South Scotland, she'd be in sea! If you're prepared to travel to near Portsmouth, OP her horses would be worth a look, they're usually young but lovely. She has a smashing buckskin in at the moment.

Thanks but I don't think I could drive that far!

Paul is a farrier working in the Preston area so I assume it's that sort of location

I thought that might be the case.

She’s Farnham based now.

She’s less than an hour from Heathrow if you fancied a trip south!

When I don’t think viewings could get much worse after a near miss being kicked last week (to which they responded of course oh they’ve never done that before!) .

My latest viewing has definitely outshone, so thought I’d share incase anyone can find a funny side. following my usual checks including dodgey dealers on fb and on ground assessment picking feet up etc. we went for a little stroll with another rider on first. Seemed a little looky but nothing extreme so agreed to hop on board. At which point the horse leapt forward broncoing me off the back and galloping off into the nearby housing estate which we spent the next 20 minutes looking for. Topped off by a 2 hour drive home in a snowstorm.

At this point going to wait for something to come by word of mouth

I don't know the horse, but I do know that Faye has a good reputation and makes sure of a good match.
