... a new horse to love!

I’m looking for a:
black or grey
mare
16-17hh
4-7 years old
light to middleweight

[You may ask why I’m so particular but I’ve owned two horses in my life, one for 12 years (a bay 15.2hh gelding) and the other for 7 years (a chestnut 17.2hh gelding). I kept them both until it was their time and it would break my heart to have a new horse who reminded me of either of them]

I don’t mind a horse with behavioural problems or who needs work. The price would need to reflect this though so I can pay for help to train/retrain.

I don’t feel as though I could take on any major health problems as spent years nursing my two boys (which I don’t resent doing) but I do feel it is my time now to go out and enjoy riding and competing.

I adore having a horse to look after and offer tlc to the highest level! I am also very experienced and have worked with racehorses so can handle most situations whether it be mounted or on the ground.

I can afford up to £3,000 (only just started a new job and moved house otherwise I would like to pay more) but would be looking to pay less obviously if it’s more of a project horse.

Please anyone, let me know if you think you know of anything I would like!

Loving, knowledgeable, forever home offered
 
Shame you don't want a bay mare, I have one for sale at the moment for far less than your budget.

She's 7, raced as a 3 yo, very pretty, fairly healthy, quirky but not unmanageable. She could be a good competition horse, certainly has the scope and paces for it, but she can be quite difficult to manage at a competition, I think this could be addressed, she just needs a strong leader, someone she can rely on. We love her to bits and just want her to be with someone who understands and appreciates her. But as I say, she is bay, kind of a bright bay during summer.
 
Project horses have some "interesting" horses , also Thoroughbred rehab are always looking for good homes , I think you give them a donation but the horse is always theirs ( and could go back if your circumstances changed ) .
 
Darley rehoming ? very nice people but I would have a vetting with xrays before bringing one home. Just to ensure you know what your getting.
