The horse i ride is for sale at a decent price but the more i do with her the more i think maybe i am being overcharged. So how much would you guys pay for...
Welsh Cob Mare, Black with no white at all
4 years old. 14.3hh
Broken but no one rode her until i came along. She seems to be a fast learner, is beautiful in hand (Never charges off or barges) but can be a bit spooky when ridden, although she is getting better. She has thrown my friend off once (Bucked and reared although was in season at the time) but she seems to realise she's not going to get me off just yet. She can be a bit nappy when leaving the yard for a hack but we are both working on this and she is making great progress.
I hope this doesnt make her seem horrible but i want to be honest about her quirks, I know she is a little bugger but i love her to death and think it would be a shame if i lost out on her. Basically she is a just a baby who hasnt done anything ridden until she met me, i dont want to pay over the odds for her. Sorry if this has come out as babble lol. Hope you all understand this and thanks in advance.

I agree with Clipertyplop, £1500, max £2000 prehaps if she's very pretty or moves particulalry well, as you say she has done very little, does she only hack or has she done any schooling or jumping? She sounds nice but certainly be a project as still lots to learn.
 
I'd say £1200, as she is young, very green and you seem to be doing all the schooling / riding anyways. However if she is registered with good breeding then she could be worth a lot more due to breeding prospects.
 
Sorry forgot to say that she is registered. Yes she is pretty and she moves beautifully in hand. She hasnt done any kind of schooling, never even seen a jump, all we do at the moment is hacking. I agree she is a massive project because she does have a lot to learn but i dont mind that because i'm enjoying teaching her new things (She's starting to show signs of bonding with me i think). She was bred by her owner and i've heard that he always breeds "good" horses. I was also told that she'll sell because of her colouring. Thanks for the help!!
