Finally

 - If you have won the bidding, you have the right to have a veterinarian perform a limited post purchase exam. Be sure to read condition number 6 of the Terms of Sale. 

Here are the basics.

Buyer has the right to have a veterinarian perform a limited post-purchase examination, at Buyer's expense, to determine if any of the issues in Condition 8 were not disclosed.  The examination must be done within five (5) business days from the end of the auction and before the horse leaves the Seller's facility. This examination will be limited to moving the horse for soundness on riding horses or show horses of any type, and checking the reproductive tract on breeding horses. Positive reaction to flexion tests and hoof testers does not constitute unsoundness, if the horse is moving sound.
