Oh I just love Chris Hickey, he is super nice!

Oh Mars bars is for sale

I would honestly pay no more then 8,000 dollars. The only think that really sticks out like a sore thumb to me is his hocks. I would love to see them with more shape.

Honestly, yearlings are by far one of the most difficult age group to sell. Even the REALLY nice ones look... well... really darn ugly! Best of luck selling him.

I agree. And then I would start ground driving (Straight lines, walk mostly, minimal stress) and a little longing so that that can go in his favor. Just no riding LOL

If you can, also, pony him on light trail rides, this seems to add money in the training department. It's a good experiance too. Nothing like a nice, sane, show stud.

Not for sale, just curious.

He is my DREAM horse. He would be the LAST to go if I ever had to sell my horses.

He leads off of Fiona when she was home. Walks calmly on trails and loves to play in water.

Pivots pretty nice, backs well.

But he's not for sale. My baby, my project. I worked hard for him and he's a once in a lifetime opportunity.

WEll all the better then!

Give him a few years of growing and training and his price will be much higher. He definetly is a quality horse. Even if he's suffering from the baby blues.

He's not that uckly-duckling-ish... LOL

These pictures are atleast 2 months old and older. Not making an excuse though LOL

I'll hopefully have much better pictures this Sunday when he goes to his first show (second if you count the inspection as a show LOL).

I can not WAIT to get this guy started under saddle...I wanna ride his trot so bad!!!
