Anything over £4k, I would be very happy with after it all. I don't mind, though, I'll have lots of fun on the way! I presume there would be more of a market for ID hunters or what sort of direction do you think to go with him?
I would try and turn him into a proper allrounder, well educated on the flat so he can do a decent prelim, at least, jumping round a coloured course at whatever level he is confident at the time and some xc experience, if he is also a mannerly hunter and hack then the market will be there when he is ready to sell, if you try and be too specific and he is not good enough you will miss out if he has not had an allround education, if he shows real talent for one job along the way that's great but start with an open mind, I like the look of him and feel he will be the type to sell easily if all goes well.
