is there a market for the smaller tb types?

say, tbx but fine boned, 14.2-15hh produced to riding club/ponyclub level, but with potential to either low level event or sj. Very nice friendly horse, easy to do & nice looking. Around 5 or 6 years old, but seen a fair bit of life.

If so, for how much? Just pondering really.... Perhaps with ulterior motives in mind......

Victoria sponge for all!

Yes. I'd buy a 15hh no lower. I like my TB's, but have to admit sometimes I am over horsed with my lad, rarely but sometimes.

My friend is looking for a smaller type horse and because she is a petite build would prefer a TB type. I have noticed that they do not seem to fetch much, two advertised recently in Staffs area for about £450 each but personally I would have thought they do have a place in the market place for smaller adults or children to big for ponies.

15hh-15.2 is very sellable I would have thought

Hmmm interesting, I was expecting some 'meat money' remarks.


Hmmmmm.

Definitley. He sounds very similar to my Andy and people would bite my hand off to buy him. If they're a nice animal than you shouldn't have a problem selling.

If you could get him. her down to 148 I think you'd sell even easier as there's always a market for these ponies.

He he, Koko, he is a she, she'd make a lovely girlfriend for Andy too

Although I prefer TB's to be 15.2hh - 16.1hh if I only weighed 8 1/2 stone I would be very happy to ride smaller ones.

If you want a horse that likes variety, and can do a multitude of disciplines and learn quickly I would recommend a TB every time!

Up to 14.2hh= racing pony!! Big market for them, and decent money.
