this is just for fun as i'm bored and want to avoid doing housework

the challenge is......find me a horse suitable for a novice (who can walk, trot, canter, do a tiny jump but is nervous and not entirely balanced)
that can carry 16 stone.
will mostly be used as a happy hacker, maybe le trec and a wee bit dressage in the future.
the le trec and dressage are not high priority tho

breed, colour, sex not important.
the budget is £1800.

the reason i picked this is due to a friend wanting the above, and me coming up blank, as the bargains tend to be those for very good reasons. she's had 2 from a dealer (not my doing, that were very unsuitable and the 1st went back, and the 2nd went to be schooled on then sold)
doesn't matter about the area the horse is in, as i said it's really just for fun, but any in scotland might get looked at

Best horse found wins £100 in monopoly money

I would have thought sparkle would fit this bill,...... you could always sell her very cheaply just to win the money!!! <img src="http://horseandhound.co.uk/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Oh wow.... he never features in the favourite hho lists

He would be up for all of it, but not the weight.... my physio said he can only carry 10stone.....

I think that is a little low, as I am sure he could 'carry' more, but with his manky fetlock, perhaps she is right!!

Also he is worth far more than £1800......

to me.

but not to anyone else as he is partially broken (fetlock)
