16.2hh rising three chestnut tbx backed and riding away, good strong type mid to heavyweight, nice uphill paces safe but forward going would make nice dressage or event horse
PICT0022.jpg
 
I would say he was lightweight too. Prob not the most flattering pic TBH but I am sure he will grow into a very nice horse- has a very kind face.
I would say £1000- £1500 but with a better pic, trimmed, groomed, tidy with white boots etc you might get a different response.
 
Judging on that picture I wouldn't pay over £1,000 for him.
He does look a nice person but the picture isn't a good picture to advertise him with.
 
Totally agree. I would also be put off buying a 2 year old that can be described as backed and ridden away. I don't like them done so early and to have been done that age he was either done really quickly or really young.
 
I agree with the others re price - somewhere in the region of £1000. I'm sure he will turn into a nice sort if allowed to mature and put condition on. I'd say he looks more light to middle weight. I'm not keen on rushing youngsters - especially big ones. I have a 17hh rising 3yr old and she has done nothing close to backing! She has been shown in hand so has been bitted and well handled but I wanted her joints etc, to mature before she starts any "serious" training.
 
Looks as if it could mature in to a lovely sort. Definately not MW or HW, not sure what you are judging that on. At the moment I wouldn't be looking at paying a penny more than £1k - and would probably offer considerably less.

However, after some spring grass, and a bit of grub you could perhaps double if not trebble your money. The horse is looking a little immature and weedy at the moment, and your picture doesn't do him/her any favours.

Really nice horse - you just need to put some work in to its condition.
 
I am so sorry, but that is the most horrid photo. There is no way I would like to make a judgment based on that photo. Again sorry to offend, but if you have a better picture then it would make it easier to judge the poor fellow.
