Event horses for sale- where to look? Recommened dealers?

[charlie76]

We have just sold our event horse as we were offered a price to good to turn down so we are on the hunt for a new horse.
Can anyone recommend any good dealers/websites(have tried horsequest/horse select etc).
We are looking for a horse that is a minimum of 16.3hh but pref bigger , which limits the choice. We are either looking for a younger horse who is being well placed at pre novice/novice or an older schoolmaster type. Happy to look at both.
The horse will need to be straightforward , more so in the dressage as rider is a gutsy jumper.
We have a decent budget.
If anyone has any ideas then please let me know as we want to crack on an find something.

Try Mark and Tanya Kyle (http://www.queenholme.com) They've always got some good horses and not all of them are listed on the website as the good ones usually get competed for a while before selling.

I had a look there last night but nothing large enough! This is for a tall male rider.

There are a lot of good horses for sale privately.You will always pay more from a dealer. If a horse is any good the vendors won't have had to sell or part exchange through a dealer.
