So - we have a fantastic horse that needs a new home. Not tooo worried about talking about him on here because he's advertised on H&H?
Diffilculty is that we've rehabbed him from an SI injury. He's 100% now and fully fit - ready for anything. He's an eventer that has gone up to 2* and that we bought for JRN. Daughter is now in the throes of A levels and vet school applications and we need to move him on, but he's done nothing since the event last summer that he pulled up at because of the SI injury.
We've spent 7 months rehabbing him and he's great now but we have no time to get him out competing again. We've advertised him as a riding horse at 3K and had a few people come to try him - not one of them could ride him so this is obviously not the way to go.
We don't want to make money on him (we're obviously losing heaps at anything less than 5 figures) but just wondered whether if we put the price up we'd get better riders?
Are there people out there ready to take on horses that have heaps of talent but are 13yrs old and needing a bit of consideration too? People that mybe would like to compete at BE90 & 100 without going to Grassroots (horse has too many points)?
