What do you think....

[KatB]

to this ad? Not my horse so not advertising! Just interested in CC please

And what would you pay for this horse?

Thank you!

 

[H-J]

Looks lovely but slightly over priced, would say more £5,500 or something

 

[Morrigan_Lady]

Looks nice, wouldnt pay 7k for it though!

 

[firstOverture]

Although certainly scopey, I don't like his head or untidy front legs over those jumps. Where are his winnings for £7k?

 

[Jellicle]

Hmm, what struck me was 'if he is jumping 1.20, why are there only pictures of him jumping about 2 foot 6?'

I think over-priced

 

[KatB]

My thoughts exactly on price. His winnings are in Poland unfortunately.... What dont you like about his head

 

[KatB]

Fair point. The first oxer is 1.05m. But agree, still not 1.20m

 

[ihatework]

7 K for a horse jumping 2'6" (and not jumping it that well anyway) - they are having a laugh

Looks like he's got a very short standing martingle on, there's no difference in his head postion in all three photos

Ah, did the owner tell you his winnings are in Poland, as it doesn't say so in the advert?

It seems that he's looking down at the jump with his head behind the vertical, which seems to indicate a lack of experience. Having said all that, its pretty much impossible to tell from a photo, even three photos! Ignore me

 

[Mrs_Wishkabibble]

I looked at that advert too. It looks a bit green over a fence considering it has jumped up to 1.20m. Doesnt look my type to jump and cetainly wouldnt pay £7k for it.

 

[KatB]

Yep, previous draw rein use I think... he has only got a loose running on in each

What would be a more realistic price?

 

[KatB]

The owner brought the horse in Poland and imported it and knew the person who competed it, but doesnt know exact figures...hence why not mentioned in ad..was jumped by a 13yr old girl apparently....
ETS the horse was brought for the guy whose selling it and not to sell on, hence why winnings etc werent overly important....

I reckon about 5k maybe.

 

[SSM]

Wrong colour and breed

 

[AmyMay]

Looks like a very green jump to me.......

 

[KatB]

Lol!!

 

[Mbronze]

I like it, seems like a nice type

 

[icestationzebra]

Firstly I think you ride it better.
Secondly I'm afraid I don't think he is worth anywhere near that much

 

[Nic]

I like it but then it's black so I would!

Price wise half what it's in at I'm afraid. But that is with no knowledge of it.

 

[KatB]

Thank you

And

 

[Thistle]

my first thought was it was green, then saw the age. It seems alot of money for a horse that hasn't reall done anything else.

Dressage 'potential', seen ditches hacking but no XC?

 

[LouHardwick]

if i am honest when i saw the pics i thought- hmmm not bad for a baby- to me looks babyish with his front end, then i saw 10- know i no nothing of SJ but would think a horse valued at that price would be a bit tidier?

 

[Baggybreeches]

Yes IT is jumping in a very green way, and tbh there are horses imported all the time with a few quid on their card, I would say its really only worth £5k max, but all in all not my cup of tea!

 

[MagicMelon]

Overpriced. Id say £4k max.

 

[Bossanova]

Decent ad but he looks green in his jump and she certainly wont get that money.
I'd have though 4.5k was about his value

 

[Butterbean]

Is that you jumping it in the first pic?
I saw it on Horsemart & thought first pic looked like you!

 

[KatB]

Yep is me jumping it in that first pic...have nothing to do with the sale though, other than writing the ad....first time I knew the price was when i saw the ad!

 

[KatB]

Agree Boss....
