With the drought in my area, many nice minis are being given away or sold for pennies. Horses are running through the auctions like water. We all know where most of them will end up
I am considering purchasing one or two minis with nice conformation with the intent to train them to drive and resell. They would most likely be young, grade horses. While I have no doubt that I would be able to find many minis with resell potential, I'm unsure of the market for driving horses now? I hate that there are so many quality miniatures being sold for peanuts, when with only a little training they would be amazing drivers.
Is there a market for young, grade, well trained CDE/driving miniatures? Mainly my question is for the CDE and trail driving people, as obviously you can't show a grade horse in AMHA/AMHR shows. Also, what would you say is the average price for a well trained CDE horse?
Thanks.
