In the market for a new horse

[casey]

Im on the lookout for a new horse and wondered if you could keep your eyes open as what im after is specific.
16.0-16.2hh
6/7 year old Mare
Well bred
Good bsja record
Not spooky, seen ditches water etc
Good to hack/shoe/load etc
Bold and clever.
Substantial price paid.

I have seen a couple on horse deals, one is a grade C one a grade B.

Alternatively, if you know any GOOD dealers that deals with this kind of horse let me know.

Thanks in advance

EDIT; to add, absolutly no stoppers.

Not BSJA records as they are irish horses, so they have ISJA points, a brilliant place is http://www.prestwoodequine.com it's in Gatwick and has some superb Irish horses.

Some nice nedleys on there, Ross and Misty Times for me please

[shaka]

Misty Times or Vistamar for me Must say Boris and Vinnie are very nice to! Bit out of my price range though

It's an excellent place, I bought my pony, Charlie from there, and he is a great little showjumper. They are very friendly and helpful, they let you ride in a field if you want,s ee the horse loaded, present for vet check etc etc. They are all really friendly and helpful. If you dont see one you like, they will take your details and keep an eye out for you when they go to Ireland, which is often.

No Sadly I couldn't afford him either. I would be divorced if I bought him. Im off to Aylesbury to look at a Selle Francais mare in the morning. We'll see how it goes.

Ooh good luck! Let us know how it goes

Well I went to see her, and although she was lovely to look at, performed well and was bold/careful etc...She didn't have the x factor.

Other reasons to be put off, she was in a gag (at 7 years old)
Owner kept changing story on why she was for sale....1st excuse....she's out of Newcomers and the 1.40 spread on the foxhunters is too big for owner.. 2nd was to pay childrens school fee's.

Poorly schooled, (how do these people get around these big classes, i'll never know)

Very strong to a fence and not off the leg on the flat.

Oh well, at least youre one horse closer to 'the one' now

[casey]
