We only tend to sell the foals we breed and anyone who has bought them have had their heart,lungs and eyes checked and if a colt to see if their testicles are there.

Ours had a 2 stage vetting at 8 months - eyes lungs heart conformation check and trot up. Cost a tad over £100 all in - reputable equine vet in Oxford area. I specifically asked her to check conformation as I am no expert - she gave a written report and a more indepth verbal report.
