Hello,
A rare visit as still no working home pooter. I know everyone is sick of the how much thing, so sorry, but this is a genuine query.
13.2hh full up gelding NF X no papers. Absolute confidence giver, 100% heaviest traffic, the first pony my daughter has hacked out alone on the appalling roads in our locality.
Always placed/wins at local level, Riding class, P.C. pony jumping etc. Has never refused in the time we've had him and daughter had never really jumped until we got him - she now loves it & it is all down to him!
He has done 3 WHP pony classes this season and won all 3 & was reserve champion at the only show that had a WHP Championship.
He's no show pony but jumps with such nice style that he'd prob get placed county level novice - but bad height & splints would stop him going any further.
He has hunted 5 seasons & is apparently a fantastic hunter - we're looking forward to finding that out this season! Has also won hunter trials & is super X Country.
3FT is about his limit & he's no speed merchant - he has to be ridden forward but is totally unspooky & will jump anything. We will prob sell bout end next yr when he will be 12/13 - so how much do you reckon?
Now second part of my query - a friend of mine (not a close friend) expressed an interest in him a few months ago - on behalf of a friend of hers. The home sounds as though it would be a good home for him BUT I know they are looking to knock the price down. My friend seems to think they are in some kind of '1st refusal' position - I've never implied this AT ALL & while it is vital he gets a 5* home (it'll break my heart when he goes as he really is one in a million) I obviously have to buy my daughter a new, bigger pony so I do need the money. Where I go from here kind of depends on your responses as I'm really not sure what he's worth...
Sorry for long post & thanks for making it this far!
