Horse does look a little, err, raised

He doesen't appear to have much in the way of fore legs in the 1st jumping pic.... certainly wouldn't have much worry of him knocking a pole with dangling fores tho...
 
I am sorry but even if it cribed and jumped like that it would still be worth a lot of money something is deffinatly wrong with this!! Sorry bit of a pesamistic (SP?!) when it comes to these things the phrase something for nothing comes to mind
 
Pic does look a bit photoshopped to me I have to say - horse doesn't look like its really "over" the jump. If its real though its very impressive - must be something a bit wrong with it for that price.

I agree, it's way to cheap to be believable and tbh, you sure as hell wouldn't try and sell it with that rider on board! I mean, aside from the riding, what the hell is the guy wearing?! I's teer well clear!
 
i think photos are fake most wings are about 5ft that horse looks like it is jumping aout 8 or 9 foot the world record is only 7 some thing!
 
I agree that there is something very dodgy about the price, but I don't think those pics are Photoshopped - looks like they are taken with a phone camera so they wouldn't be high enough resolution to alter convincingly - when you click on them, they are also very small, which supports this argument. Unless the seller is a very proficient retoucher indeed, which seems unlikely indeed as you'd make more money doing that than selling horses! Lovely jump though.
 
I agree doesnt look real - but if it is, if that poor ponio knocks the front pole (highly unlikely with that technique!

) it could hit to floodlight and not fall causing the horse to fall or something

Does look VV cheap with that ability

If he was nearer I'd take a look!!

The wings are 1.20m as the multijump is 3ft high and 12" on its side.

So that little chap is clearing 1.40m which is not an impossible jump.
 
I agree Benjamin - and looking at the cut-out of the horse at the homepage of his website, it doesn't strike me as him having access to amazing retouchers... I work in that industry and the going rate for a job like that (this is providing the image exists as a very high-res file) would could half of what he is selling the horse for!

I agree that it all seems dodgy, but the pics are not retouched in my opinion.
 
I guess it just seems very very cheap in this age of overpriced horses with "potential". I suppose maybe he shouldn't be more really - he has proven nothing, he is young, small and cribs. Must admit that if I could buy a horse I'd be very tempted to go and have a look...

I can't see how or why people think its dodgy?
Is it because he is cheap?

i believe it is dodgy as i know the seller.
he has also been the the talk of many threads on this forum with countless people ending up with broken horses and no comeback.

TRUST ME when i say that if this horse was as fantastic as it looks he would keep it himself to jump - or at least be selling it for a decent amount of money.

indeed you are very right vikki_crystal!

whether its photoshopped or not if its that good he'd almost deffo keep it for himself!
 
If you went to view him, you would ask to see him loose jump, and then you would know if the pics were real.

Aside from that, if you had a website for advertising your business selling horses, would you use pictures of you riding in jeans and trainers!!!???
