Desperate for a horse, please? :(

[Grey_Eventer]

Im looking for a horse to loan or buy (must be cheap) that will basically be a replicate of my current horse who is out of action for the foreseeable future. :'(
So, 15.2hh+ and not older than 10
Im looking for something to team chase (must) , hunt (must), show jump and event, or any of these really... just desperate for a horse!
Must not have any injuries/dodgy legs and if buying will need to be open to a full vetting. I don't mind if the horse is a little bit difficult or has some quirks but it does need to be honest with a good jump. A TB would be ideal or TB x, maybe something just out of racing.
Please?

(ps I don't know these just mooching on the net)

have you tried any local racing trainers? would you be willing to travel at all?

 

[Grey_Eventer]

oo thank you, i really like that bay thats just out of racing (the one you like) and the chestnut, thank you!

 

[leflynn]

no probs, the one wildcard gave a link to on the other thread I've seen recommended by the lady I bought my 2 off, so might be worth a look if you don't mind the travel

I'll keep mooching

Do you have any contacts in the p2p world? I was looking for a sensible hunter hunter last season and asked a girl who rode out for several p2p trainers and was offered an 8 yr old ex pointer for free, cracking hunter and would jump anything and no previous leg problems or unsoundness. It seems to be fairly norm round here to give away p2p'ers to hunting homes, 3 of the horses I looked after were given to the hunt to use as hunt horses.

Hi,

we have a 15.2 mare, ID X TB, Very bold, loves to jump and is very quick across the ground, can be strong at times but thats because she likes to be out in front. Going at a very reasonable £1250. only down side is she is 13/14

We are based just north of Shrewsbury

Well I'd say you aren't asking much, for so called cheap horseIf there is a paragon out there that fits the bill, now doubt there will be umpteen others after the same animal.

Hi

I know someone with a 10 year old TB gelding needing rehoming

Out of racing last year and has had a year off so a bit of a blank canvas but said by trainer to be quite laid back.

PM me if your interested
