Personally I wouldn't pay anything over $500 for her. Firstly because you didn't specify what she shows. Shes a solid paint, don't have anything against them, just not for me, and if I'm getting a paint, I'm getting color. Also her conformation isn't the greatest, needs more muscle. And she looks like a choppy mover.

To me? In my opinion a top horse has wonderful conformation, awesome coloring and bloodlines and knows how to show it too. Phenomenal show horse. Moves beautifully. But thats a top horse.

And when I said your horse moved choppy I think you misunderstood me. I didn't say she looked unsmooth, choppy horses can be smooth, but what I'm saying is her strides aren't great for me.

And also the bloodlines are fine and all with her, but they're Thoroughbred bloodlines and you either want good paint bloodlines or good Quarter Horse bloodlines. But thats all my opinion.

But either way I wouldn't pay any more.

I hate that. I don't care what people think. If I get looked down at I'll just out ride there gay fugly Tabiano on the eventing coarse! :lol:
I'm going to be training with a girl who has a stables in Ohio and she does Dressage and Eventing. She rode with Karen O Conor which is pretty cool. :)

Impressive is known for hypp. It can be a fatal disease. here is a wonderful website about it http://www.bringinglighttohypp.org/

My horse also has impressive in her blood lines, so i got her tested and she came back positive. I forgot what website i used, but i paid $45 or $55 and had to send hair samples from her mane (with the root) and thats how they tested it.

Ever since i knew about hypp, i stay away from those horses, even if they are negative. That's just my personal preference tho. Except for my girl. I could never let her go.


I don't want to scare you, i'm just informing you.

You jumping her already? At the age of 3? Personally. I think 500 is a good price, now that you said that your jumping her. Maybe even lower. She may be a /smooth/ mover. But she doesn't look like she has she shoulders for it nore does it look like she is moving smooth in the pictures. Plus it looks like she has a bit of a goose rump. And small feet

I highly doubt you have any right to call a horse ugly that you haven't even seen nor even beaten. Also not all paints are tobianos anyways.

also, in my opinion, i think i really nice top doller horse does not have to have this really nice personality to get him by. He needs to be an excellent mover, and have a show exprience. No show expirence, nothing over 15,000. In the top level show world, most good ones that are going to get you to the top are over 45,000. I bought a three year old that is going to be able to get to zones fo 30,000 if that gives you an idea. Just because No one would go over 500 doesnt mean she/he is not a great horse. She/he could be an awesome lesson horse or pleasure horse you can throw a saddle on and do anything. And honestly and truthfully, if you put him/her into training, the price probably wont go up that much higher than 5,000. Not a top doller horse. Sorry. And in english, paints are not good choices to make alot of money or get into a high level
