Pippa Funnel loses another ride.....

[Bossanova]

Matter of Opinion, on Horsequest under int/adv eventers.
Seems very, very cheap to me and if I had anything near that amount of money, I'd certainly beg borrow or steal the rest to buy him!!

 

[madgirl]

bloody hell that cheap!!!!
Guess pip doesnt want to keep riding him or the owners dont.

blimy wonder why he is so cheap!!!

 

[Ferdinase514]

OMG that's cheap. Do you think they missed a zero off?!

 

[sillygillyhorse]

Wonder what the story is behind this sale. Agree not a huge sum of money for what he has done so far, makes plenty others look incredibly expensive!

 

[LEC]

She must have decided he does not have the X factor to go much further. Seems odd as his results look ok especially as he has not done very much and is only 7yo. Wow does seem cheap!

 

[I_A_P]

yer i saw that ealier, not the best photo is it really i didnt hink, i know thats no the most important thing, but with that and the price i did wonder if it was "real" but maybe im being suspicious

 

[CastleMouse]

My god, seems very cheap! Surely a misprint???

 

[lisaward]

Unless they've fallen out and the owners wont let her ride it/buy it off her.
Merely speculating

 

[Bossanova]

Maybe it's tricky to ride. I know the girl that bought the other Matter horse off her and that proved to be not an easy ride, most of the ones she loses dont do well with other people...

 

[madgirl]

yer look at conerman from his record this year you wouldnt think he lead the dressage at burghley for a bit!

and i wonder if it is pregnacy too?? hmmm

 

[CastleMouse]

There has been quite a lot of talking about Pippa wanting to have children...

 

[Tufty]

maybe the showjumping lets it down a bit l- but still seems cheap for a 7 year old at that level, shall I buy it for you Bossanova for Xmas (only joking !) if I win the lottery !!!!

 

[Irishcobs]

It says sadly no rider, so either Pippa's decided to stop riding him, could be any reason or the owners have taken him away and now can't find a rider for him.

Shall find out tommorow for you girls.

 

[S_N]

Link to add please! I'm thick and I canna find it!!

 

[Bossanova]

www.horsequest.co.uk select eventers, int/adv et voila!!

 

[madgirl]

at the very top of int/advanced eventers for sale page

 

[teapot]

What a naff photo for a start.

Hmm wonder why he's for sale - she's not got that many now has she really?

 

[madgirl]

yer i thorhg it was a bad pic too

 

[monica123]

oo...will have a look now!

 

[monica123]

god.....not a very good pic...but thats not all, not much about him either..

 

[amage]

maybe he's not 100% sound...only speculating but very suspicious price for what he is supposed to be.

 

[LauraBR]

This should link right to it... http://www.horsequest.co.uk/EventersInAdvnc.htm

 

[S_N]

HA - thank you Boss and lzt! My goodness that IS cheap!! Wonder what his SJ is like - wrong colour I know, but WEEZY????

 

[madgirl]

lol his sj ain great had 20 pens at le lion i the SJ but only 4faults at punchestown!

 

[MillionDollar]

OMG if i was looking for an eventer i would do a bit of research and snap him up!!!! Very quickly, i can't believe how cheap he is!!!!

And hes only 7

 

[poggio]

there has got to be a pretty good reason why he is so cheap. Is a nice horse as far as Im aware... probably soundness issues. Tis the usual reason for these type of horses coming up for sale... and being cheap!

 

[Super_Kat]

Is that all they're asking, christ!
Wonder whats wrong with it

 

[Stella]

I'd love to know more, very intriguing

 

[Irishcobs]

Shall find out tomorrow. I no someone that will no.
