They're all the fashion, and I am interested.
My boy:

16.3hh 13 yr old tb x.
Good bits: Evented up to Novice, very succesful at pre-novice. Been on all PC team this year. Not a novice ride, very forward going although I ride him in a snaffle. He has SJ very nicely round a 1.10m course at the PC open eventing. Very honest. Good hack, but forward going and lively. Good in stable etc. Good manners. Fantastic flatwork even with me! Hunted.

Bad bits (oops, think there's more of them!):
weaves a little at feed times, Bumpy legs. Hates vets. Hates his mane being pulled. Ok to clip, but funny about the back legs, do-able w/out sedation.
Has a dippy back and not wonderful conformation

He gets excited at competitions, but wouldn't know how to buck or rear! He gets tense in dressage, which is all that's holding us back at the moment.

Any suggestions? Here's his record before I got him:

id say around £4k - he looks and sounds nice - put his age is against him im afraid, he also on has 1 BE point (from what i can tell), and if you wanted to sell him as an eventer at that age he'd need to have more. Also his conformation and lumps/weaving might let him down slightly. If he was a 6/7yo then id say around £6k. Also people want a horse thats good with the vets, clipping isnt too much of a problem as you can always give them sedeeze if they're not too bad (which he dosent sound like he is).
