I had a post up here recently regarding buying cob youngsters - unfortunately the sale fell through! I was looking to buy two 3 year olds - a 14.1 chunky coblet and a 14.3 welsh d x. They said they'd accept 1100 for the pair, and then pulled out as some helpful person said they'd get 900 each at least come spring - unbroken and unhandled - slightly unrealistic but oh well! I'm a bit gutted as one of them is the half brother to my horse, and I'd love to have another one. I'm looking to break in and keep, with one of my liveries and my mum in mind for future owners/loaners.
A dealer contact brings cobs over from Ireland and can get them for 600 each for 15hh 3 yr olds, but I'm a bit wary as the history is usually unknown! The ones I was hoping to buy are lovely and just left to grow for their first 3 yrs, plus I have one of them already who is a hero.
So...I'm passively looking for replacements. If anyone wants to help search, that would be lovely..! The requirements are....
Age: 2 - 5 (must be unbroken)
Sex: Gelding
Height: 14.2+
Breed: anything really, no TBs or WBs but would consider crosses, sports cobs and welsh d crosses would be ideal!
Location: I'm in Kent, so anywhere in Kent or not too far from here...
Price: up to 600 each
Look forward to seeing if anyone can come up with anything!
