Opinions please :)

They both look nice, but slightly different purposes- top one is younger, less experienced and has only really done SJ. Bottom one is more of an allrounder. I like the coloured quite a lot, he looks like a sweetie.
 
Both nice from pic and descriptions. I'd prefer the first horse for more scope and being a pretty blank canvas. 2nd horse looks very solid and has more experience. Neither seems too expensive for what they are. Depends what you're looking for really.

yeah im a sucker for a coloured!!
 
If you are looking for a sj then go for the bay...

If you want a hunter/allrounder go for the coloured.....

Or alternatively just get both, then all the boxes are ticked!!!
 
Just noticed the coloured is on with a dealer - have nothing against reputable dealers, but if you look at their ad for the grey, the wording is nearly identical, which would make me question how much they really know the horse....
 
Ditto above: the coloured's ad reads "in his last home". I would just check how long ago he was out and about competing, why he was sold to a dealer (could be a genuine P/Ex) and if the old owners are happy to be contacted to discuss him history (always a positive sign). Again, there are genuine dealers out there, but I would def check out his past with people who know the horse inside out.

Having said that, I really like the look of that youngster and think that would be top of my list if I had time for 2. Happy horse hunting, there are a lot of good quality horses about right now.xxx
 
I prefer the bay simply because he's a pretty blank canvas and obviously has scope and doesn't have to stick to showjumping, plus he doesn't have white legs so less upkeep required!! (always a bonus, says the owner of a white pony!!)
 
yep, I'd go for the bay too - and I don't even like bays!

loads more scope - looks like a really talented youngster, realistically priced! The coloured looks as though he doesnt have much scope to go above what he's currently doing. just my opinion, please keep us posted if you view!
 
I had noticed the coloured was with a dealer so am a little wary on that one! Im going to run the ads past my mum and see what she thinks neither are terribly far from me so will keep u updated if i view anything!!! Thanks for the opinions :)
 
I like that bay horse, it looks like it should have good potential. I hope it is as good in the flesh when you go and see it :) Good luck.
