I am having a bit of trouble finding something new for my MiL.. She has a horse at the moment but is completely overhorsed and needs something new. All she wants to do is hack around the countryside both alone and in company and be able to take it in the school. She may pop a few jumps (max is only ever going to be 2'3 ish) but really all she wants is to have come fun and get her confidence back. Age / colour / looks really doesn't matter but temprement is key - she goes into a total panic if the horse dares to look at anything unusual so cannot be anything of a nervous temprement that needs confidence from rider - and needs to stand up to a couple of hours gentle hacking at the weekend.

Does anyone know where on earth can i find one of these?!
 
They are out there I've just sold my mare (went very quickly for full asking price)_who is a fun forwarding going hack, none spooky who is exc in traffic. Perhaps try a wanted ad or otherwise be prepared to spend a lot of time trawling the web.
 
How big does it have to be? I have a totally BOMBPROOF anglo arab, but he is 14.3hh. xx
 
My advice would be to look for one localy. Stick up wanted signs in the local tack shops and feed merchants and ask local instructors, farriers and vets to keep an eye out. That way you can try it out several times and be able to find out it's true temprement and history from the locals before buying it.
 
Have you asked around your local riding schools ours just sold a bombproof RDA horse as a happy hack as well as several other happy hacks :)
 
Thanks for all your help guys, and for all the PMs. I will pass them onto MiL and see what she thinks :)
