1. Bates Advanta

The Bates Advanta saddle is specially designed to provide both the horse and the rider with an advantage and therefore, this saddle is in high demand in 2021. The desirable saddle is crafted from Luxe leather and provides unrivalled contact with your horse – an element that is particularly favoured by event riders.

3. Equipe synergy

If you’re looking for a much lighter saddle, the Equipe Synergy could be the one for you!

5. Kent and Masters S Series

The popular Kent and Masters S Series saddle has been designed so that the rider can dynamically adjust their centre of balance when jumping. Suitable for a wide range of horse compilations, this Kent and Masters saddle is perfect for jumping and cross country riding, with forward cut-flaps and moveable blocks combining to provide solid support for the riders legs in a short jumping position.

6. Arena Jump
