Common questions

What is Horse Scouts?

Horse Scouts is independent buy-side research for sport-horse purchasers, powered by Showjumping World. We verify public show records against the listing, place the ask in market context, and document open questions in one shareable report.

What do I need to submit?

Horse name and listing details are enough — ad text, seller notes, or a link. USEF login is optional for deeper U.S. round history.

How long does a report take?

Most buyer reports are ready in about 10 minutes. You can wait on the page or receive an email when research finishes.

Is this a pre-purchase exam or vet opinion?

No. Horse Scouts is automated research from public records — show results, pedigree sources, and comparable listings. It is not a veterinary exam, guarantee of seller claims, or substitute for a trial.
