for a 7 year old Irish TB, papered and not off the track, Gelding, not done much but works well in an outline and jumps like a stag (and enjoys it!) Good confirmation and will box, shoe etc without a problem. Basically a very easy horse to do and just needs a bit of bringing on but has a very sensible head.

I know it's a bit vague! Andy ideas?

2.5 K if it wasn't too small and had a bit of bone and generally good conformation

Think he's about 16.2 - lovely looking horse. Any more for any more?

1.8 - 2.2k...............

Really? Even for a horse who's willing and will pretty much tackle anything headon? jumps really well too.....

Given that he came thru with a clear vetting I'd be happy to go to 2.8 if I thought it was the right one and would want a trial first.

If he could perhaps turn his hoof to a prelim dressage test, and really definitely is unphased by everything, I'd go up to £3.5, if he's balanced, and you can have this proven, that he will go out and do something like maybe coloured poles, traffic etc without a prob.

yep...he'd be in the market with 1k's of others.....
 
I know of a horse of unknown origins but full of potential went for 10k asa 5 year old in London area. I was flummoxed by price.
 
Yes it goes a lot on breeding and quality of movement/paces, I mean, how about those warmbloods at the sales going for around 100K unbroken? and of course...who is selling...
 
thanks for the replies! 110% out hacking - don't think he's seen much traffic as he was 'interested' but just gave a little shiver when a massive double decker put on it's air brakes!

coloured poles fine - not sure about fillers but would guess he's fine.

canters behind and infront - doesn't pull and really doesn't spook - nothing seems to phase him.

As I mentioned, nice to do in the stable too and shoe.....
