Quite apart from this particular horse, which I know nothing about, that's not exactly crazy money if the horse is indeed a "proper" upper level schoolmaster. It's not an unexpected amount if the horse is a potential serious GP prospect either, my point is only that one would expect to pay that at least for a horse capable of taking a relatively inexperienced rider up the ranks quickly. I know a couple of people who have paid far more than that for older horses to do that job, even ones with soundness issues or which lacked the quality to win at the top end but could and would be good teachers.

Whether one "should" pay that money is academic. People do. And real schoolmasters (not just nice older horses that can do a bit of this and that) are in short supply so tend to have price tags that reflect their rarity.
 
QR- have to say guys what aload of judgemental bloody tosh some fo you are spouting.

How many members on here buy horses better than their riding ability?I have seen so may posts on here where people have bought horses they dont click with or cant cope with.
Where are you all jumping on those people,no you dont because they dont deserve it do they its plain nasty.
Granted im very much team kids never mind her or pete its those kids side im on,i find alot of you very snipey and pathetic towards her.

Maybe she enjoys a challenge not something which is push button,did anyone think of that.How on earth is this horse going to get ruined with a top rider and trainer overseeing its progress and hers.
I have seen more regular people go from from horse to horse that they cant stay on let alone control or ride to any level,and i have seen good horses come and go backwards to how they were trained.
She is not the first semi novice person to buy a horse that possibly is a little over her head,who knows lets just see shall we before we judge.As far as i can see nobody on here knows squat about this horse and nobody has seen her ride yet either.
Give her a break FFS she has not affected any of you personally so why you feel its ok to jump on her everytime she goes out,holiday,gets a new boyfriend,buys a new horse its beyond me.
She is not here to defend herself which is why its so easy for you all to have a good KP bashing.
If you dont like her as a person although you dont know her,dont like her clothes,books,perfumes and all the other stuff,think she is a crap rider or whatever then its simple dont read about her or even think about her at all.
If she is not hurting you or changing the course of your life then leave it be.

She is raising the profile of riding which i think can only be a good thing,about time we had some down to earth people instead of groups of over opinionated,up their own ar$e toffs.

Oh what utter tosh. She is raising the profile of Katie Price who sells stuff with her name on. The horses are purely peripheral, they are all just part of the marketing strategy.

I can think of many down to earth riders and KP certainly isn't one of them. Nothing about her or her approach to riding is down to earth...
