How very sad, 28 yr old Lambton Rose to go through York sales.

Just a thought, but anyone thinking of bidding for her should declare their interest here so as HHO members don't bid against each other and raise her price, so rewarding A Lady for this disgrace with a nice fat payout.

Was thinking this myself, it certainly needs to be as pre-arranged as possible to avoid anyone paying over the odds for her because several people are trying to help her and bidding against each other.
 
hey wh bentley lives two mins up road from me! when is the sale i can go up and ask the eccles if they would go buy her xx
just on the off chance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
dont know if my post sent but wh bentley lives just up road from me!! i shall tell the owner john eccles if someone can tell me when sale is x
 
My concern is that if she gets pulled from the sale what will become of her then? If her owner is unscrupulous enough to put her through the sales what's to stop them dumping her or selling her on to a novice as a riding pony?

I have a printed copy from NED stating Rose's date of birth, sire, dam and registration in Dales stud book. I will be showing this to the auctioner first thing Friday.

Good for you WhoopsiiD - maybe see if others will sign a petition? Or print off this thread and show them the bad press they are getting as auctioneers!

They may be prepared to sell their granny but we are not prepared to buy her!

If you know them could you see if they have contact details for James Grant, he bred WH Bentley and owned Lambton Rose. Mr Grant may know where she is now!
 
Just to be clear I am unable to attend on friday.

as for showing the auctioneer im not sure thats a good idea - what if they do reject the mares entry and she goes back to the evil cow of an owner and they send her to the meatman?

good luck xx

Would be amazing if they did. I know 'd have to buy her back if she'd been mine. Which bit of the country are you in?

Evil cow can try!

If the EC is prepared to drag Rose to the sales in the first place I'm pretty sure that they are not going to want to take her back and let her see out the rest of her days.
My hope is that a few politley chosen words and being made aware that 'US' having Rose will be better and cheaper for her in the long run.
 
I live in forestmill scotland john hannah and joanne live in farm just up road from me!! i will pop in when i am feeding cattle tommorow morning and tell them x
 
I frequent York sales regularly and have been asked by a good and honest acquaintance to buy this mare for her. She will either have a home for life (if physically sound) or be PTS if not.

I cant take another oldie on. However I am on leave this week. If you let me know what is happening I dont mind taking the trailer over to York on Friday. I can deliver her anywhere in Leeds

I am supposed to be decorating my new house but some things are more important.

LOL Sue, I've offered livery until she can be collected by another HHOer, if you are willing to go over then Martin says he will go and bid for her.
