I will take some pictures this evening, but she's 15.3, 7, short-coupled lovely little ball of fun. A very boring bay, scabby and scurfy at the moment, not the prettiest head but actually very well put together. I found her near Swindon, and I hope I'll be able to sell her towards the end of November and go back and buy another mare the guy had there - right up my street she was! Oh, and the new one has the best name ever.... she's called Betsy!
 
Wow

Well she's not done a lot at all, so I'm hoping to do some unaff dr, maybe a hunter trial or 2, and I'll affiliate her BSJA and do some BN and disco's, then probably around the £5k mark. Unless she does really well! I think she'd be a brilliant teenager's horse (or young-at-heart's horse

), but I've had her less than 24hrs so she might not be what I think she is! There is,however, a book running at the yard already, given my prowess at selling things I buy to sell

, I think it's odds on she never gets sold!

Well the way I justify my current situation with Liberty is that I'll never buy a cheaper horse, and I could sell him now for lots of money and go out and spend lots of that profit on something supposedly established and wonderful and find it never wins anything! Because he's been a very good rosette machine this year. And William's difficult to sell because he's last of the line etc. And I can't sell Deco because she's having babies (even if it is at her own pace), and she owes me nothing. And I can't sell Missy, or at least not until Deco's popped out a newer shinier model. And even if she does I might have to wait until both offspring are broken so I can decide which is better.... and so the list goes on!

But this one's definately going to be for sale....

You are about as good as me when it comes to selling.
Why O why do you have to be working this week? i could have come down and ridden out *sulk*
 
T_E - the only reason i asked was because I remembered you saying something about one of yours being up for sale and am on search with friend for something for her but this one doesn't sound like it fits the bill. She looks like a sweetie though
