I;m planning on buying a hourse!

Question
Well my ex land-lord has a bunch of horses, and she would like to sell some of them. She has a 5 year old Mustang mare, that has a young filly, and id pregnant with another. The horse is halter broken, but has never been rode. I would like to know how hard it would be to break her to ride, since she is that old already.

Thanks,
Ashley

Answer
5 is not that old she is still considered young. You might want to go to a professional and find out what they would think. If you are up to it, and she is not totally wild you may have a good shot. It depends if you are an experireced rider, if not you might want someone to train her. Good luck adn let me know how it goes.
