I have an older broodmare I want to find a good home for and need suggestions on getting her more marketable

She is 17 years old and only halter broke, she came from a ranch for $500 as they were quick selling everything. My grandma thought we could breed her to her stallion so she would have a foal she could train up for her retirement. The plans fell through and I want to find a good home for her but we financially can not afford to keep a horse we don't ride (we board) my plan is to try to start her under saddle and work on getting her nicer for the vet/ferrier in order to give her the best possible future. She has great breeding and isn't a bad looking mare at all but I don't want to market her as a broodmare despite that being the only job she's ever had. Any other suggestions and does anyone think I'm on the right track? I do love this mare but I'm helping my family prioritize horses right now and she's going to be the most tricky one to sell with the most work needing to be done.
