Has anyone heard of this stud or dealt with this dealer? They have some horses for sale and I was thinking of going to see one but wanted some feedback on them before I went as I have not heard/dealt with them before.

Thanks
 
There have been many posts about Ricky Gradley, do a search of the forum and you'll find them.
Sorry, I can't remember what the verdict was.
 
I have a feeling the general consensus on here was a rather loud "no!" ........ but I could be wrong.
However that Horsemart ad would make me stay away...
 
Erm well from personal experience & from others experiences the phrase "wouldnt touch with a barge pole" springs to mind
 
im on horsemart this minute and saw that advert about 10 minutes ago..
ive never heard of them before as not an experienced buyer but the ad deffo put me off!! xx
 
well i bought a tb mare off them last year, she was advertised as kathryn, a 15.2 warmblood mare, when her passport was actually tequilla, 16.2 tb mare! but on the whole i was quite pleased with her, although i dont think they do much research on the horses they buy in, as they said she was just broken, but in fact she was broken as a 3 yr old and had jumped and everything. maybe they didnt know this, maybe they did, but she was a nice mare, at a good price, and they seemed homest enough on what they did know about her.

i like that mare thats advertised ive been tempted myself, as im after something about the same but a little younger.
 
I doubt that you'll get many positive responses to this...
