I think she's probably fairly priced whereas a lot of others on the market are overpriced. She hasn't got the best conformation but for what you want temprement would be of higher importance so certainly worth a look.
Please take an experienced instructor with you and make sure you get a vet certificate, just to make sure she is the age advertised and that she doesn't have any medical problems.
 
Doesn't really say much about her though does it. I wonder if she has actually done anything at all, looks pretty unfit to me?

Definitely worth a phone call though as she looks a nice sort.

There is alot missing off the ad, farrier, clipping, hacking out etc?! Lots of questions to be asked....

also ask if papered, had a foal, why for sale
 
Not the best ad but worth a look as its not too far for you to travel, looks fairly priced to me but bare in mind they may have missed something off which is why its cheaper. Its only 5min drive from me!! Unfortunatly have not head of the seller so cant be of any help.
 
It looks a bit long in the back and seems to have quite an odd confo in the pictures- but it could just be the way they are taken. Seems cheap and the fact they missed out most of the important things would worry me!
 
I think its probably just a nice mare with a genuine temperament. Its not going to get to the top in any field which they realise (some other people still con themselves!), but it would prob do local level competing quite well. It hasn't got fantastic comformation and it is not stunning, but looks very safe and kind. I would check its teeth, its looks possibly older than 10? It looks like it hasn't done a lot of work which could be good, at least its not damaged! It does say it has a genuine reason for sale, see what it is. Perhaps it cannot be used as a broodmare or cannot jump? Plus it is only 15.2hh, a lot of people want something a bit bigger or a bit smaller so they could have had trouble selling it?
Looks a nice horse to me to do a bit of everything on and have fun with!
 
It looks a nice sort, and a good price, but does look a wee bit long in the back. It could just be the picture but look at the dust kicked up behind - maybe the action through its hind legs isn't great - also tail held a little high for my liking. But who can tell from a picture - well worth a look to find out

looks like she's built quite downhill, may account for the dragging toes ( dust kicked up). May be worth looking at but get her vet checked as may be a problem with her hocks due to conformation.
other than that she looks sweet.
 
Not keen to be honest, not the best confirmation and not very well schooled by the looks of it. Very down hill, not tracking up etc. Would prob be a nice 'project' but would def need work before competing!!
