14.2 rising 4year old evenly coloured native type gelding - good to handle, shoe, catch. Very trainable character, picks up new things very quickly and thrives on being your best friend. lives in or out, alone or in company. Chilled out temparment, excellent in traffic, never spooky, goes in front or behind. Nothing really bothers this gentleman!
Show - placed 1st on first time out in hand, ALWAYS in the top three! Qualified ponies UK, CHAPS champs, and Royal London in 09, very well behaved on the show ground.
Backed and schooling beautifully- brought on slowly just introducing canter work and lateral work now and hes picking it up really well. Popped over the odd XC fence and small jump in the school which hes shown he has good scope for. Loves having a purpose in life! Been long reined with harness, excellent driving prospect.

Extremely heartbreaking sad sale... same home since yearling.
 
Hi,
He sounds lovely, not very knowledgable about market for this type, but i would hazard a guess at aound £4000 , maybe £4, 500.oo
Dont think your have any prob selling, him either!!

Wildwest - I paid close to £1000 as a scabby, wormy, underweight, and un-handled yearling.

Yes I agree too cheap!

I would say £3k to £3.5k if not £4k if you leave it at the right time of the year to sell.
 
We spent ages last year price and pony watching. Depends when you're selling him. I'd think as he's done so little ridden work a little less than £4K now, say advertise at £3500 and be prepared to accept an offer - he looks the sort that may sell well, however I've seen some coloureds that started last October at £2950 down to £1500. Once the spring shows signs of arriving and with a little more to demonstrate of his ridden work I think you'll get more. Problem is he's not 4 yet so can't compete in ridden classes.

You have got to be joking, something like him, unbacked you would be lucky to find for that! I reckon £3500 at least.

Edited to say we sold a 5 year old version of him a few years back for £4000!
This is him!
