Which one should I get?

Okay, I have a beautiful Medicine Hat Paint gelding at home. My dad told me to start looking for another horse that could be a potential riding horse for company, family, etc. Well I trained my horse from the beginning but unfortunately I dont have the time to do it again so I'm looking for a green broke horse. I love paints and thats all I'm looking for. So which one do you guys think I should get?

For the two that dont have a picture, I emailed the owner for pictures and when they email me back with pictures I will post them up here.

Well, I'd obviously remove the last one from your list as she's just a broodmare. The first one is green broke, not suitable for just any rider, so I'd skip on her too. There's plenty of broke horses for the same price or cheaper that would be safer for less knowledgeable and experienced riders. Out of what you posted, the middle horse is the best, but that's not saying much. Expand your search to other sites. Try your local craigslist.

I'd keep looking. Because the first and last ones are both just broods. Plus the last one has AWFUL conformation and likely has back problems from the looks of her.

Keep looking.

Well, unfortunately, I cant get any of them. I talked to the owners about the last one, they said she wasnt broke, so I skipped that. I was set on the paint mare that was for 300 dollars, but they sold her a few days ago sad ... oh well I'm going to keep looking, I really want another paint gelding but they are hard to find around here.

Don't go for mares or flashy looks. Go and try the horses out, green-broke or not, before you buy them and DEFINATELY get a Pre-Purchase Exam. It's better to learn if the horse you're interested in has any medical problems BEFORE you buy them, even if they're less than a thousand dollars. Paints tend to have medical issues... I know from experience.
