Looking for a project to bring on over the spring/summer to do a bit of BSJA. Saw this and thought he looked nice....any thoughts? Do you think this is a good price? Thanks

Looks and sounds a lovely sort but always slightly wary of ads without a proper side on confo shot on level ground. But I'd second another poster - if you're nearby seems worth a look

If you are wanting to do BSJA I would look carefully at his jump technique if you go and see him as he is a bit too dangly in front for my liking.

Looks a really nice riding club sort.

It may be a lot to do with how he may have been presented at the fence though looks as if he may have been rushed as he's quite flat - and the rider certainly hasn't helped....
 
I googled the mobile number and it brought back 3 different horses for sale. Granted two of the ads were no longer running but it might be a dealer even though it says private. Exercise caution.
 
When I was looking I googled everything, name, number, postcode, address etc. It was amazing what I found out. People who were dealers, people who claimed to know little about horses but were on local BHS committees.

Its very informative.
 
I think he looks a nice sort but perhaps not going as well on flat as main pic suggests (if you look at pic with lady in yellow jacket riding - diving out thro shoulder. Perhaps I'm tight but I would be looking for lower price than he is on for. That should be 'I am tight'! Worth a look definitely
