Good luck with your search. Have you been to see any yet?

I was looking for an event horse a few months ago - promised myself I would buy one with experience as I've always wanted to event but never had the time / money. Ended up falling in love with a showjumper that had only been xc schooled once (useless me and my non-existent will power!!) but there were not many around for me to look at, though I was more restricted with location as I couldn't really travel for more than 2 hrs max.

I was looking for something similar recently and found mine on horsequest. I think they are the best for Novice and above and most are private sellers (I wanted a private sale as I wanted to know history etc). I found a lovely gelding, when looking I just didn't find much else on the other websites, good luck with your search!

If you ever want to try a younger one let me know, I'm on the Devon/Cornwall border. Got one by Tinsley Faerie Legend (Ben Faerie x Welton Louis/Elektra spiritus) & another by Catherston Dazzler. First one calm, gentle & bold, a genuine lovely person. Second gentle & friendly, but much more wow than her sister. Both out of our Kiltealy Spring (Sky Boy) ISH mare.

Have you tried Exmoor Eventing?

or the lady at Stockland Lovell

At least they'll have fab facilities to try a horse out.
