About how much?

I was just wondering how much a 15hh, gelded, Morgan horse could sell for? He is fairly experienced in barrel racing, pole bending, %26 trail riding %26 is a Jumper prospect. He has alot of experience in 4-H shows. He could use any type of rider. He loads %26 clips with ease. The farrier says he has excellent hooves. He also has healthy teeth. Here are some pictures:

I'd say $5000, maybe more, it depends on how much horse sare in your area.
Hope I helped!
oh my god he is georgeous! id like to no in gbp 拢 how much he will be selling for, good luck x get back to me with a price nofearnatsere@aol.com cheers xx
It really depends on his disposition, pedigree, and how well he showed. You could probably get around $10000 for him. If you are going to sell him make sure to keep him in shape and well groomed (they sell higher this way). I would start around $15000 and go from there.
Can you provide more details on his barrel and pole accomplishments. What type of times does he run/ where would he typically place. Is he quiet and calm in the arena or is a lot of horse, does he get excited at the gate. etc, etc
He is VERY pretty. It seems like he is a good horse. I would go maybe.... $15,000. (Always price high and decrease the price if no one buys.)
start at 15,000 and the price will probably go up. He's gorgous!
Its very hard to place a price on a horse that I have never actually gotten my hands on. There are many different factors that you need to consider on determining a price. Is he registered? Does he have any breed association points or awards? How much did you pay for him when you purchased him? How long have you had him? How old is he? etc. Depending on the area that you are in %26 what the economy is like around you, the price may vary alot. If you are in a high level economy where people generally pay more for things then you can get away with putting a higher price on him. If you are in an average to low economical area like most of us then you need to put a reasonable price on him. Without knowing alot more information I can't give you my honest opinion of a good starting price but I would guess that somewhere in the ballpark of $3,000 would be a reasonable place to start. Put a price out there that you are comfortable with %26 go with it. Don't shut yourself down to offers though..you don't have to accept what someone puts down on the table but its very helpful to see where other people are placing your horses price %26 it will help you get a better feel for how "desired" he is. Give everyone the chance to come out %26 atleast look %26 offer you something...you never know what you may run into. Good luck %26 happy selling!
Try putting an ad in the Chronicle of the Horse's classified section-and I would ask at least 10K for him, perhaps even 15. He's worth that much, at least. If he's registered, he may be worth even more. The other writers are right, he is gorgeous ! You can also try listing an ad on dreamhorse.com and see if that brings any results. Don't forget to include photos in both places! Good luck !!
It's hard to tell with out knowing what his movement is like, what his conformation is like (your pictures were too small to tell anything really), what his disposition like, what times he has run, where you live, etc... I would say because he is only 15 hands and only done 4-H from the sound of it that he would be worth around 3,000 dollars in the mid west. He sounds like a nice horse, and he would be worth more then 3000 if he has breed association points, is a great movement, or has very fast times in barrels. The people saying he is worth 10-15k are being very unrealistic, a morgan will only go for that if it is breed show proven, or exceptionally talented.
My mother has bred %26 raised Morgans befor I was born, I am 31 yrs. They really are great horses! I have done all that on my Morgans! He should be around 3000.00$ What are they asking?? What are his lines?? He is very good looking. What is his age?? I would say that he could be a good start for you!
