Opinions wanted on them please.
Do either have any potential?

the second link just shows a list of horses... Which one was it? The first one looks nice. But I wouldn't bank on it growing too much more. What are you looking for?

Yeah sorry it does work if you highlight all of it not click on the link.

Looking for anything preferably over 14.2, fairly young, sane and easy on the eyes with good feet.
I am wanting something I can keep for a few years to bring on and hopefully compete in a little of everything before selling it on.
Unfortunatly I am very limited to what I can buy due to lack of funds.

PM'd you with a thought. I think she may grow a little too.

Also how much weight do you think the arab x will be capable of carrying? (roughly)

I think they both look fine, although I dont think the Connie will much bigger. TBH I wouldnt pay that price for them, Id pay max £800/£1k for each.

Hi
Have you thought about a standard-bred, alot of these have worked hard on the roads and are very traffic proof, if they retire sound from harness raceing they usually stay sound. also they tend to have realy nice temperaments. there are a few on the horse exchange site for £1-£2 thousend.
Good luck

TBH I have never thought about a standardbred as I have never actually seen one in the flesh, ridden one or known anyone who has had them. What are they like to ride?
