I like the TB although he looks a bit grumpy in that stable pic. The second not enough to go on, spose it depends what you want the horse for? worth asking for more photos and info on the second one though i would have thought.

Also this one..........

Hunterjumper - good points about both. Im after a horse to do rc sj on, maybe BSJA BN.

 

[naza]

would a 15.2hh be too small?

 

[silverstar]

Naza - Yes it would really. Im tall (5'10) and prefer a 16hh.

Bump

To be honest I think they are all quite over priced and you could get something that has done more for a similar amount.

Thanks tabithakat. The search continues altho I like the look of the chestnut mare.

 

[tabithakat64]

I'd be tempted to take a look at the chestnut if it's close by.

 

[silverstar]

Yes she is not that far away from me. I will ring up.

Not 'sold' on the TB personally, don't like the ad for the WB... there is not much to go on for a £3000 advert, not even a decent photo, and I am not keen on the head carriage of the ID or the 'parelli trained' aspect of the advert. If that is your cup of tea then have a look although I would say that there are a lot of parelli followers who will only sell to other 'parelli/NH' people. They all look overpriced to me.

Where are you and what exactly are you looking for, perhaps we can do some window shopping for you X

P.S. Sorry to be so negative

I have to agree with this.

If the horse has been trained parelli, and you haven't, you will probably have serious problems with it.

Queenbee is right about parelli/NH followers only selling to others of the same mind, the reason being, it's not fair to confuse the horse by selling to a person who uses traditional horsemanship methods, and it's not fair to the purchaser who will have some bad reactions from the horse.

Otherwise, yes , a bit over priced, especially in todays market.

The 1st one needs some pictures taken with a better rider. The xc jump looks awkward because the rider is balancing with the reins

The ones on horse mart do nothing for me I'm afraid! The TB looks uncomfortable over a fence and the other one looks like a hairy yak, no conformation shot or at least idea on what the rest if its like is a big no no for me. I do however like both of the two on horsedeals, both look like very nice sorts and and the chestnut is very nicely bred (chair lift horses are really nice laid back types, we got one here and he's a star).
