Hi guys,
I am potentially thinking of selling my pony due to change in circumstances and life getting in the way. However I have no idea on price, so was hoping to pick your knowledgable brains.
He’s 8years old, warmblood x cob 15.3hh.
Has manners to die for;clips without even needing to be tied up, good with cattle and general farm stock, loads in anything (including a cattle wagon if needed), completely bombproof out hacking but will have a bit of a snort if a tractor has big machinery behind it but does nothing more than a snort and a look, will live out or stabled and happy on his own, will also happily stay in the trailer at shows on his own if his mate has left him.
Ridden wise we have done plenty of showing, always first or second at local level and then we have done a handful of county shows and hoys qualifiers where we have had 3rd to 6ths (if I’m honest it’s my riding that lets him down at the bigger shows due to nerves). We show as light weight cob or coloured classes
He does also take side saddle very well and we have competed up to prelim dressage on the wonk, I’ve not shown side saddle yet due to time. We have hunted sideways a couple of times.
He has been driven but only driven a few time on the road (my partner did it and then lost interest so not actually been driven for almost 12 months )
Dressage wise we regularly get high 60s at Elementary but I’ve never completed higher than that. Schools well at home in snaffle or double bridle.
Hunting is his passion. He will hunt all day, hedges, ditches etc not a problem. Never strong and happy to be up from, at the back or anywhere in between. I’ve also led ponies from him ( children the optional extra ) and he has been used by the “whip-in”. He also loves pleasure rides too.
Showjumping wise we have had clears at 80cm however it is not something I have facilities for or I enjoy so he’s not that experienced.
He does have a scar on his leg due to a field accident but easily covered for showing and has not been mentioned or marked down by a judge.
I am at a complete loss to what sort of price he’d be worth, and not in a hurry to sell him (nor have I made my mind up complete yet as I know he will be a very hard to replace if circumstances change in the future) as he is part unicorn (in my eyes) so know I may regret it
