Really sorry, but How Much?

For a 15.1hh very elegant and pretty bay TB gelding, who is 16yrs old? Ideal RC horse - been on PC Area teams (eventing I think) as a youngster and schooled to medium level dressage - though not been ridden at that level (even schooling) for over 2yrs, as current rider is a novice. He's fun and very capable, very forward going, but easily managed. LOVES jumping!!!

Not the best pic - was riders first ever dressage test!! Rider not ridden for about 2 decades!!

I would guess around £2500-£3000 if horse is totally sound and healthy, and able to compete up to that level again.

God I would never pay that much money for a 16yo. You say been schooled to medium and that was 2 years ago. I would value at £1000 maybe £1250 if feeling really generous. Age is such a negative for me as issues over costs of care, insurance etc Also the fact he is forward going means not maybe ideal for a novice/nervous rider who would be its main market.

£2,000?

 

[meandmyself]

I agree- about £1500-2000

There are quite a few for sale that are similar to yours - this one for example

I would say £2000 - 2500 would be a fair price for yours as well.

I hear you! Though I have to say that he has taught his current NOVICE/NERVOUS rider to jump!!!

I agree with LEC.

It's what I though too, tbh - I'm not going to be popular when I pass this on ..... ho hum

i recently sold my 17yo to his loan home he did area eventing, sj and dressage with me and i sold him for £2500 after my instuctor said to sell him at that and he was 17 so id say around the £2500 region.

 

[vieshot]

£1500, because of his age

2-2.5k...lower end at this time of year.
