Sorry its a how much!
I'm selling a 10 year old TB cross ID mare and want to know what price range I should aim for.
She is a full up 16.3hh, big and built hunter/jumper. She has quite unique colouring, mostly white with brown and pink!
Has been in the same home since 4. She will showjump and hunt a dream. She jumps anything and is extreamly bold and brave, jumps 5 bar gates without a care in the world. Would jump Discovery/Newcommers bsja easily but not yet registered (may do this soon).
Good out hacking and well schooled, but jumping is her 'thing'. Will hunt all day long, will jump anything and I mean anything!
Not a novice ride as needs to be kept working hard, not suitable for someone who only rides weekends. She is a big strong mare, so not really a novice horse despite being lovely, she needs a firm hand as can be bargy in the stable/take advantage if she can get away with it.
What do you think? I know the market is a bit odd at the moment so I'm a bit lost and would love some advice!
 
Would say around the £3500 - £4000. I think to ask any more, however capable she is, people would expect a proven comp record/winnings especially at 10yrs old.
Good luck in finding her a good home....
 
would agree with above but probably 3-4k and be prepared to take 3. Its all very well saying that she would jump up to newcomers but without any record to prove it that is just speculation, at age 10 as well a comp record is important! and the fact you say she lacks manners in the stable and is not a novice ride
 
If you aim her at the hunter market (and have decent references to prove her worth) then you could ask a bit more but she would have to be a decent proven hunter for that. If she's tough, sound and strong, she sounds an ideal candidate for hunt service too.
