i have a question though...like im not trying to sound mean or anything. But...if someone were to buy a horse like this for their child, a child jumper....they wouldnt pay 30,000 would they? cause like...When i got EJ (proven child jumper) we got him for $2,000 and he got me to 3 feet then nikita took me past EJs level. If anyone were to spend 30,000 on ahorse, wouldnt they be like...getting one that is very very highly trained? i mean....Nikita can jump 5 ft no problem....2nd level dressage...she was 10,000. Im just curious as to why she is priced so high? Maybe horses in your area are more expensive i dont know. but a horse like her in my area (a child jumper, 8 yrs old) could MAYBE go for 10,000 depending on the dressage skills ... I mentioned this before but i would deffinatly look into taking her if you can really convince me why she should be priced so high cause i can easily find a horse like her within a hour away from me that is 10,000 or less. Not trying to be mean, i just want to know if its cause of the area you live in is why she is priced so high or of she has some VERY VERY high training with a PROFESSIONAL trainer and if she did...who was it with?!? chances are if we really are looking into getting another horse...i would contact him or her.

haha yeah here...for 2,000 u could get a decent jumper/dressage horse. I mean like they wouldnt be all fancy shmancy but they would be good for competitions around here. not a big horse country here. if i were to buy one for 30,000 here.....they would be grand prix level lol. thats y i was like WHAT? 30,000???

i dont know...it just seems so weird that a horse like that is so expensive...like seriously here, she would be worth about $6,000...im not dissing her in anyway! but a horse here for $6,000 is pretty damn good. If i were to buy a $30,000 horse here....it would be like showin in Pony club, A rated, dressage, eventer(intermediate to advanced), awesome conformation, great bloodlines. And when i talked eventer intermediate to advancd...im not talking about intermediate potential or whatever...im talking about one that has already done intermediate to advanced...you RARLEY find a horse that good around here anyway....but there are a few.
