It does say trade advertiser on the second advert rather then private advertiser. I would imagine the fact that he's a stallion has made him difficult to sell on. Shame to see him being passed around though.

My dream horse, unfortunatly im not able to have anotherone at the moment.
I sold a grass green mare for £800 (i diddnt know she was a dodgey dealer) they clipped, shod and re sold five weeks later as a schoolmistress suitable for a nervouse novice who the dealer had had for a year and done all sorts with, only she was £2500 by then!!!! I detest people who lie to sell horses.

I was told a pack of lies when I bought my arab. He was sold to me as a lightly backed 6 year old and was advertised as an ideal childs ride for pony club activities. There was no tack available for me to try him in and I was put under pressure to buy him as they said there was a lot of interest in him. Gullible me fell for it and I wrote the cheque out there and then! They told me he was unregistered and his passport was in the post (which never arrived!), however I traced his history and discovered he was actually an unbroken, unrideable 10 year old who had only been gelded at nine. I'm glad to say a year on I have started riding him but it could have been a different story and I dread to think what would have happened if he had been bought for a child.
It's clear to me now that they were desperate to be shot of him but how people can lie like that and potentially put others in danger is beyond me. They clearly have no conscience.

Yes he looks the same one to me. You think that is bad my pony was advertised privately by somebody before they took her as the advert was posted before theft, she was then bought by an unknowing dealer then sold again and then I found her, I had the best time ever on her then we went to have her microchipped and we found she was not perfect after all

Yeah i think its the same horse too! and WHY do people do the BIG NO NO when it comes to stallions? i own a stallion that is the sweetest, nicest, horse i have ever owned. we have 5 mares and 3 geldings on the yard and my stallion is no problem at all. i even hack him out with mares and you would never no that he was a stallion unless you looked between his legs! but maybe i am one of they lucky ones
