Ridecamp: [RC] Horse Buying - Which sounds best?

Hello again,

The search for the perfect horse continues...

I have 3 prospects in mind, all the same price:

Faline - three year old 1/2 Arab 1/2 QH buckskin mare, unregistered. So pretty! 
Sounds like she has lots of ground work, not yet backed. Free lunges, knows 
commands. Saddled, bridled, yields to bit from ground. Nice solid legs and big 
feet, QH hindquarters with Arab face and elegance. Up to date on all health 
care, foot care and shots. Sounds like she has a nice temperment. Will supply 
coggins for free.

Rain - three year old pure Arab mare, papered. Also very pretty. Very light 
bone, small feet, little hindquarters. She has a nice temperment. Splint on 
right fore. Up to date on farrier, shots and deworming. Halter broke but no 
ground work whatsoever. Doesn't even know how to tie. My initial thought was 
that she is too light for heavy work.

Walt Disney - yearling Anglo-Arab gelding. Owner says he has scar on left fore 
and warts right now. Halter broke but little or no handling. Dewormed, 
irregular foot care. Dam was competitive trail horse and TB sire was a sport 
horse sire. His dad was 17 hh so this guy will be big. No pics yet so that's 
all I have to go on.

Which sounds to you like the best bet for endurance mount. Email privately for 
pics. I could really use some expert guidance on this one.

Thanks ridecamp, you guys are awesome.

Tam
