I'd say around £2500/3000. Depends on breeding though really which you haven't said apart from idxtb.
 
I really like him so please don't think I am being mean at the price I am going to say here....but if I was buying him I would be looking at paying somewhere around £1,000....£1,500 max.
 
These always make me laugh, I welcome anybody to try and find me a nice all rounder with potential to event for £2000 with no lameness issues or quirks. TBH I am struggling to find something half decent for under £7000 at the moment!!!!

Id say £2800.

lillie07 - You can get horses quite cheaply (and not loads of crap either!), you just have to look in the right places

My current BSJA / BE horse cost me £2600 (having done nothing competition-wise, like this horse).
