I like the second one, the third one, and the last one. You are SO lucky that you can get a horse that expensive. My parents are devorced so I can't have one unless my dad pays half which won't happen! PLEASE let me have 10,000! I will be sooo thankful! That means I can get a horse! Please? Let me know.

If you are into show jumping I would go with either 4 or 6, but you would need to see pictures of them so you can see their conformation. They might be good jumping pictures, but if they have bad conformation, then their more likely to come up lame, or not have as long of a career as one with good conformation.

Well, if I were in your shoes, I'd try to find an eventing horse. So that you'd have the best of both worlds. My reasoning is simple, all of these horses that you've picked are either excellent jumpers or dressage horses, but not both. It just doesn't make any sense to spend all that money for a horse who can't do both, ya know?

Besides, from the sounds of it, you seem more interested in jumping. It'd be a waste to buy a dressage horse just to find out that they're not a wonderful jumper.

Okay. First of all, never buy a horse strictly based on the fact that it's "prettier". You'll only end up with a horse that you can't handle or is just a bad match for you overall. Are you buying a pasture ornament or a companion and partner that you can work and grow with? Secondly, this is an ENORMOUS budget for a 13 year old girl on her SECOND horse. Thirdly, what do you need a Grand Prix horse with Olympic prospects in their future for? You can't even go to the Olympics for at least 5 years. And that's if you're this freakishly amazing prodigy.
