Looking through for sale adverts for safe PC types, and they are all very much alike, with little to set them apart.

Sellers have started going above and beyond the norm trying to make the pony stand out,

I have a project pony to bring on and sell over the summer, and we usually do some sort of bomb-proofing exercise before we advertise as a kids pony, here is a video that I took yesterday

If you were looking for a safe PC type, would seeing this video ,along with traditional advert pictures, and probably another video showing a mix of hacking, jumping, schooling, attract you to the pony, or would you see it as "pointless" or even be put off by it

All opinions welcome

Agree with Ffion, its a working progress atm (a very good one too) but i would put one on the sales advert that shows no reactions what so ever.
 
I also would want some footage of a child on him - I'm sure we all know a pony where butter wouldn't melt with an adult on board, but not quite so innocent with a child!
 
Yes , Couldn't agree more, going to offer my friends little boy to take him round some jumping classes at a local show, once I have taken him myself for the first time, he has already hacked him, so suppose I should get some pics of that x
 
Sorry but that would put me off. It reminds me of the pictures of a child standing on pony which some advertisers put in. I would expect a pony club pony to be ok with things like that so by highlighting it would make me suspicous that the pony is somehow lacking in other areas.
 
I think it's a good idea but as others have said, needs some tweaking. Would prefer to see the same type of distractions against a field background not in a yard.
Can't see why it would put people off.

But I think the most important point is, have a child on top as Broke said.
