Does anybody...

[Rosiefan]

... know anything about the horses or people at Exmoor Eventing? PM me if you prefer.

Some good some bad horses like any dealer. But some rather 'generous' price tags. Check out the BE records which are all available and if appropriate talk to previous owner/riders. Which personally would do with any horse....

ALWAYS be careful with BE records.I know someone who competes her experienced horse under the name of horses she has for sale just so it looks like they are brilliant. Does anyone ever check the horse against its passport.NO!

 

[Bossanova]

Over-priced

 

[eventergirl87]

id highly recommend mark and tanya kyle at queenholme

i also know of a horse that will make a good JRN horse for sale from my work PM if you want details

 

[Rosiefan]

We're not really talking JRN (Rosie just sold hers), more a possible junior euro or YR horse as a sponsor may be interested in buying one for her if her Mum and Dad can find a good one that doesn't cost the earth . Thanks for all the info everyone - very helpful

I think (but I might be totally wrong here) that HenryHorn sold their Monty to them last year...might be worth a PM to get an view from the other side, so to speak.

 

[MissDeMeena]

Hornby, you're right she did..

Rosiefan, whatever you like there, offer them half the asking price, it's prob. what they payed for it only a couple of weeks earlier.

 

[Rosiefan]

The horse they're interested in has been there for a while but I'm fairly sure they'll be making an offer below the asking price - it's what they do!

Friend said she was looking for something to do YR atc maybe on.
Looking at the horses for sale I would say lots are over priced.

Really? That's awful! Perhaps I'm naive but it would never have occurred to me. Perhaps the same could be true of the other affiliated disciplines. What can you rely on these days when it comes to horses? Buying is a nightmare! And good luck Rosiefan.

 

[Weezy]

Personally I would look elsewhere...

 

[madgirl]

BTW has she riddenfor this sponsor person before?

 

[Rosiefan]

SJing ponies at HOYS etc I think but I'm not sure

 

[madgirl]
