Selling a yearling

[Tempi]

What would you expect a yearling to be doing if you were looking to buy one?

So far I have:
Used to being tied up (in and out of stable)
All feet picked up
Good with farrier and vet
Good to be groomed
Used to the hose/being bathed
Good to lead
Loading in and out of lorry
Easy to catch and generally good to handle
Good in the stable

Not sure what else I can do with her for good selling points? Obviously shes vaccinated, microchipped and passported.

She is going to be advertised for sale at the end of this month and I am going to do Futurity with her if shes not sold by then.

Everybody will have their own ideas.Personally I would say your list is a lot more than I would expect from a yearling .I like mine to have a life as horses as they grow up so they really get left alone to get on with it there is plenty of time for all that and I have seen so many screwed up by over handling as babies.

If I was buying a yearling - out of your list, this is all I would prefer

Good with farrier and vet
Good to lead
Easy to catch and generally good to handle

Great thank you both just to add she lives out in the field with my other youngster and some other horses. She only comes in to be handled properly once a week. Otherwise she just ga her rugs changed and fed daily in the field.

You need to add "OK to rug" to your list then!
