Im selling a horse on behalf of a friend and I cant help but think the price they want to put him up for is too much.
So what do you all think.....
5 years old, turning 6 next week
ISH Bay Gelding, 15.1 and a bit!
Not really done much, was bought as a first horse, but is not suitable.
He does need brining on and schooling and he is being schooled at the moment, but will need an experienced home to continue his education.
Good to catch, shoe, clip, hack alone and in company, although can bit abit spooky but nothing uncontrollable for an experienced rider.
Does load, but preferes a lorry although will go in a trailer with patience!
Sorry if Ive missed anything, im rushing coz baby wants food!!!!
 
Horses are cheap at the minute arent they :/ Im in a similar friend whos been advertising and not had any interest! I would say between 2k-3k for this horse. Its hard to say without seeing pictures, knowing breeding, seeing him work etc etc!!
 
I dont really want to post pics, as he's not mine, but he is very handsome and can move nicely, but does need work!!
Ive been schooling him for them and he is coming on well, but its gonna take time.
We dont know anything about his breeding other than he's ISH.
 
What are they wanting for him? Maybe go around the 3k mark then? Advertise ONO as that always seems to get more people in! I wouldnt personally pay more than 3k for a green horse, of that height, with no great breeding or experience to his name. I think for over that youre looking at competition horses, with a bit of experience. My mare was £3250, shes 16.2, King of Diamonds bloodlines and was slightly green in the school, But she did work in a nice outline and had a beautiful jump. She wa advertised for 4000.

At the end of the day a horse is only worth what someone will pay :) Maybe try £3250 if 3k is too low lol!!!! ;)
