I think he looks like a lovely genuine horse - his rider looks extremely comfortable and happy, nice type and good price by the look of it.

looks a nice horse, if you just want him for hacking and fun!

and very nicely priced esp as includes tack and rugs!

 

[jenh166]

go for it - polo ponies are often really easy to look after - used to being tied up for hours and shouldn't be a kicker or anything. may well be forward going on hacks esp on grass!

 

[zebadee321]

Thanks i think i will, i only want one for hacking and to have fun, troy is a showjumper and he is not good hacking, he is weird because he will do everything else perfecly

expensive if 16 years old. unless his tack is worth 900 pounds!!!!

QR Looks like (troll)ble to me

 

[FanyDuChamp]

jump at it ,
Good luck

Nice type, bit dear in my book for a horse edging towards retirement....

 

[millitiger]

i think he looks lovely and a v.good price if he is safe and sensible.

 

[Suzie86]

why is he edging towards retirement?! 16 is not old OP could still have 10+ years of fun with that horse (in theory of course

) I think it looks like a suitable horse for what you are looking for def worth a look anyway

The horse could have many years in him yet, the only time I've ever had a go at polo I rode a lovely grey, galloping around, canter changes and sliding stops and the pony was forward going and loving it. Only afterwards was I told he was 27, I wouldn't have said he was over 10 he looked amazing! Polo ponies generally have quite low 'milage' and are sturdy littkle things, I think the OP should go look at him, worth a look definatly

If he's as genuine, safe and willing to give it a go as the ad makes out then it seems to me that, given the numbers of "where have all the safe sensible 15hh gone" posts that have been appearing over the past few months, he is very well priced.

I'd get him vetted to make sure there's nothing nasty lurking but he seems a nice sort.

I wouldn't pay that much for that horse, but it looks nice.

I assume the ad should have said he has good manners and not that he has a lot of big houses in the country!

Seriously though I am a big fan of ex-polo ponies (except for one of ours who is a git).

Even with his age I still think he is sensibly priced . He really seems like a genuine chap
