RE: [RC] [RC] Buying and Selling Horses/Prices - Juli JakubDepends on where you are I guess. In western Mass. you see the stock trailers most often, but it is mostly club and collegiate polo...not high level polo. There is a big difference. I dabbled in the polo world and most of the people I knew and rode and worked with had off track TB's retrained for polo...not big fancy expensive horses. But if you are serious you can spend a bucket load importing an Argentinian TB!<html><DIV> <P>Juli Jakub</P> <P>The Air of Heaven is that which blows between a horse's ears.</P> <P>~ arabian proverb</P></DIV></html> <BLOCKQUOTE style='PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #A0C6E5 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px'><font style='FONT-SIZE:11px;FONT-FAMILY:tahoma,sans-serif'><hr color=#A0C6E5 size=1> From: <i>Carolyn Burgess <carolyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx></i><br>Reply-To: <i>carolyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</i><br>To: <i>Kristen A Fisher <kskf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, carolyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx</i><br>Subject: <i>RE: [RC] Buying and Selling Horses/Prices</i><br>Date: <i>Thu, 27 Oct 2005 16:09:01 -0700 (PDT)</i><br>>Not where I'm from.
