Hi all who are interested

Thanks so much to Clipcloppop for the heads up about the Suffolk. We had always planned to find my wifes horse first....

but instead found the perfect horse for me.

We drove the seven hour journey today (there and back) in almost 6 as there was no traffic anywhere it was fantastic.

The owners are completely gutted to sell as they have owned her for a long time (infact i used to trim one of her daughters and a number of granddaughters up north). They are moving to Canada and she is just too old to go with them. They think the journey would be too much for her

She is a kind, honest and gorgeous horse. She has not been ridden for six months so has little muscle tone but her legs were free and loose. She is as sound as a pound with very low mileage. Perfect for me as i just want a quiet safe horse to hack with my wife on the weekends.

If we get injured who would shoe and trim your horses for you

I am also a fairly novice rider as have not ridden much since i was a child so I dont have any pictures of her ridden as my wife went with me on foot while i tried her out.

She is ACE. We have paid them half already and will go and collect her the week after next. More photos then i guess

sorry these are not the best my phone was on the verge of dying and we took them at the end of the viewing in a bit of a rush. better photos to come

Oooh so so jealous. If you ever decide to sell let me know!

Congratulations, hope you have lots of happy years ahead with her!
 
So very very pleased for you! she looks wonderful and what a lucky find for you. She will be worth her weight in gold for you...... now dont get too smug - your poor wife must be feeling a little left out so take that grin off your face and start looking for her perfect match.

By the way - will you have to build a stable extension?
 
Yay, I have been following your posts about her and I'm soooo glad you are buying her!
She looks like she will be a complete sweetheart for you
