Please PM or post any suggestions that you may have that will fit into the following criteria:
Thanks to those who have already :)

~ Between 15.2 - 16.3
~ 5 - 10 years old
~ Basic schooling in place (trainable attitude essential)
~ Able to pop a jump with scope to progress to low level Affil and possibly BE80/90 when we are ready.
~ Enjoys going out to beach, long hacks, being groomed for hours etc :D
~ Ideally some competiton exp.

I am not fussy on breed, colour or sex. But will not take any piggy rearers/chronic nappers or broken ponies :)

Happy for a challenge in terms of bringing on but I wouldnt want another unbroken 4 yo TB mare :)

I have a budget of £2000 unless the pony is coming with a saddle in which case I will be able to stretch a bit more. It will be a home for ever with competent and kind rider who wants to have fun.
 
Basically you want what everyone else wants! Almost every 'horse wanted' thread on this forum is for a 15.2 - 16.2, 5-10 years old sane and reasonably schooled all-rounder who is good to hack, easy to do and with competition experience! Obviously, if something is in high demand then the price is likely to be high too, so you need to think about what you will compromise on. An ex-racer is one good option, because a lot of people don't want pure TBs/ex-racers.

Blimey!

I was going to come back and say, that you'll have to have a bigger budget than £2000 as I would be expecting to pay up to £4000 for a genuine little horse like you have described.

But, on seeing the coloured you have just found advertised, it does seem like they are out there:eek:
