I will be using the name daisy as the lady we bought him off! this isn't her name but its easier if i use a name of some sort .
I bought a pony around 3 years ago from daisy that used to own the yard where we keep him, We knew that he had problems hacking alone and other riding issues when we bought him but we loved him so decided to to buy him anyway .Daisy went on to selling all but 1 of her horses as she decided that she wanted a new career and was selling the yard . Anyway that was 2/3 years ago and my daughter has worked really hard and now glad to say he's improved 100%.But now im getting to the point of writing this.
We bought the pony for £1500 We received his passport and changed vets/farrier ECT there was NO agreement written just sold as seen.Soon after buying him daisy was kicked off from the yard as she had become very volatile to others about silly things and made so many people cry it was an awful period untill she left.
My daughter has progress as far as she can with her jumping pony and we have made the decision to sell him as a dressage pony as he is turning 16 he loves his work but can take life at a slower pace. This was all well and he was advertised for £3500 As hes progressed so well in these past few years untill yesterday when the new yard owner received a phone call and we had messages from daisy friends infoming us that she has the right to buy him back for £1500 and I will received a solicitors letter this Tuesday! She has got a friend who apparently was there when we bought him (which she wasn't by the way) that prepared to write a statement to confirm that daisy said to me she could have first refusal to buy him back if we sell him. I have to add that if I thought she was suitable to buy him back I would but the things she has done to the pony whilst she owned him( cropped him over 40 times because he wouldn't ride out alone, chucking brooms at him when he was kicking stable door are not what I'm looking for in his new home. Daisy has alot of money and can afford solicitors where I'm not in a position to do so.Does anyone know where I stand please that can advise me thankyou in advance
