Just read this about a legal battle over a horse sale. Something tells me only the lawyers were the winners in this one. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-34982843
If the pony was a nutcase it still managed to be placed at scope in 2013 with Elise Walton, I cannot believe they won the case with that evidence
If the pony was a nutcase it still managed to be placed at scope in 2013 with Elise Walton, I cannot believe they won the case with that evidence, there may be more to it but to go to court when the child is obviously out competing seems to be in conflict to the claims being made, I guess they sold him on in 2013/14 so should have recouped some of the purchase price and I would have thought made going to court pointless, it just goes to show anyone who sells a horse or pony is at risk of being sued.

They didn't. The judge found in favour of the vendor.
I think the woman who bought the pony bust have been the raving lunatic - not the pony!
Poor pony I hope it's found a safe home .
Principle , every time a lawyer hears a client use that word they book a holiday .

Seeing as the claimant bought the pony in 2011 and this video was in 2014 (with a different rider) I think it has. Though that raises questions about why you would sell a pony if you were in court trying to get the vendor to take it back and give you a refund..... If they sold it, I suppose someone else could just be riding it.

A little more detail.
It's all reminding me of a couple of the more dogmatic posters on here who have to have the last word and get more and more involved with a completely pointless argument in their quest to be on the highest moral ground.
that one was certainly a for sale video, if not sold to them previous and 'teamhewitt' were just selling it for the owner then I dont see why it wouldnt have sold but no proof without looking up record a bit more.
Yes I did get what you meant, thanks photo-jo. seems they did have a break after buying him but hard to say that's not a good/18k pony with the record.
So definitely sold on as owner not a walton..
