Is 80000 on a broke 5 yr old arabian gelding with egyptian blood lines a good price2007-11-24 21:17:49Answers:

First of all...there are alot of horses out there with "good bloodlines" that are not necessarily show quality horses. You want to make sure that this horse not only has the bloodlines, but is also of the quality that you are looking for. Second, being "broke" can mean alot of things. I know a girl who took a Quarter Horse mare, put the saddle on her a few times, jumped on her back and rode her around the round pen and then advertised her as "broke"...so, I would make sure that this horse is at least versed in all his gaits. Third...and most important...the price sounds good if (and ONLY if), you have the ability and the know how to handle a young and green horse and to further his training.

As a side note, Arabs with Egyptian blood are usually very typey, but are on the more "hot" side and tend to be bred a little more "fragile" (this is not the old school Egyptian breeding, rather what it has become in the United States in recent years).

YES!! you haven't bought him, yet!?!!

---

that's an excellent price!

---

Yes. Just because of his training, then his papers add a little kick!! For the people saying he is too cheap for a reason, the horse selling market is down. that might have some thing to do with his price.

It sounds too good to be true. Ask questions, bring an experieinced horse person with you to have a look see...and try this horse out before buying. There must be a reason that this horse is on the auction block at that price. Just do your homework before jumping in and buying.

Can you get a copy of his bloodlines and post them so I can look at them? And a picture? I personally stay AWAY from the Egyptian bloodlines in the Arabians. And I stay as far away as possible.
