if you are willing to travel to minnesota by duluth... than i know a beauitiful horse that would be cheap. the only bad thing is that he is old and could pass at any time. he is in good health but old.

Here is a link to one. He is a great horse and beautiful. The lady were I keep my horse is selling him because her son is moving on to something that is more of a challenge. But I have first hand experience with this horse. He loads and clips and stands for the farrier.

Good Luck in your search.
