Good photo to put in an ad or not?

[Annagain]

I've been window shopping again and can't decide if the jumping photo in this ad is a good one to use or not. It shows he must be a very good boy if he jumps with the rider doing that to him, but I'd be concerned that if the owner thinks that's a good photo, what else has the poor thing had to put up with! Thoughts?

i have to agree that i doesnt show the horse to be bad, infact he looks very honest but i would be very wary about mistakes the owner may have made him his training but i suppose u can get that with any unknown horse

Not the ideal picture, but if the owner is honest in their experience an then you shouldnt have too many probems, or atleast will know what to expect in terms of his level of schooling.

Must be something to do with the horse! We have a brother of his for sale at the moment and he also jumps very like that, unless your very balanced its hard to stay with. In fact see pic here http://www.ntequine.co.uk/horses-for-sale/forsale4.php and you'll see what I mean!
