Which someone on this forum needs to make so we can see how he develops ????

Yes but nearly half price and as someone said he was cheap at the original price, similar are going for so much more unseen. My first thought was has he just failed a vetting.

I take the point, but only £1700 reduction versus £5k and he's open to another vetting.
I don't think £3.5k for an unbroken 3 year old was cheap. He's not got spectacular breeding or it would be mentioned. Mum probably even pulled a cart

If you google the number and name, you get some text off another advert that ends 'Please no time wasters or tyre kickers this is a really tough decision'...
Also has a Clydie for sale on DD too

Though ad is in Penzance not Dorset and no longer exists and possibly looks like a fairly typical Google mixup?

Not sure, this is what I got, literal copy and paste:
Annie, 14.3hh Riding Mare - Horse for sale in Penzance
Please no time wasters or tyre kickers this is a really tough decision. Price: £4,000 £3,500 ono. Location: Dorset. Contact: Rhiannan. Phone: 07904 038434.-'
May not mean anything, but it's a seller moving through horses and I'm a cynical old bat.

It's a bigger % of the overall price.
There are some very ordinary horses going for that sort of money and more atm, the ones with breeding are silly money. And he was apparently backed at the breeders, alot would sell as broken.
However at price, worth a shot if he would pass a vetting,, an old splint wouldn't be a fail as long as the vet thought it wasn't likely to cause a problem.

Was looking at the IDx ad, caught sight of the hackney, and had to click off before I did something I’d regret. Stunning lad.

She must have been very attractive, though.

Re the price I actually spoke to a lady the other day that said she refused to charge covid prices for her horses, a decent home was more important to her than making money. I hope she was genuine!
Also possible they are desperately short of cash and just need him gone x

The clydie she's selling is still going up for a fair price at over 6k though.

He’s a great project .
But I would be leaving my rose tinted specs in the car when I viewed him .

Been on the market at an even higher price for over 2 months on preloved. Very unusual not to sell in that time frame in today's market.

I liked that one as well its quite addictive scrolling through horse adverts especially when your not even looking.

Yes, that's suspicious and I didn't know that. But there is a very limited market for unbroken 3 year olds.

I can always go look at him for someone.
I've done a bit of FB stalking - the owner was looking for livery for 2 horses not far from me in oct. She is also having a 'clear out' and has lots of rugs and odd and ends for sale. Sold her olympia tickets. Her other horse she has at livery is a 17.2hh 4yr old clydesdale - she is currently advertising for a sharer for him. He is just backed.
I think she has 1 or 2 youngsters (yearlings) too but looks like they are turned out somewhere.
She seems quite young (just an observation)

Aaarrrggghhh, now I want him! I have the room and nothing to ride as all mine have something wrong with them or are Shetlands… I would have the money too if I wasn’t about to pay for a new manege grader…

I’d saved his details too! Lovely kind face. I’m not up to a youngster though. Not right time for me either but I did see his kind eye. Hope he’s healthy. Good luck to however gets him.

I'm local and apparently in the market for another horse but can't (won't!) afford these high prices atm.
Snow Falcon, are you serious about him for your son? I'm only looking for something to play with into next summer.

Nice type.
I don't care to speculate about him. I'm sure a phone call and vetting if someone were really interested would sort things out.
So...who's going to do it?
