Condition Score: 3.5 /5
This used saddle is in very good condition with the usual flap wear and surface scratches you would expect to see on a second-hand saddle.Condition Rating
5.0 = New Saddle with Tags
4.5 = Ex-demo Saddle, has been used for fittings.
4.0 = Excellent Condition, has been used and ridden in.
3.5 = Very Good Condition
3.0 = Good Condition
2.0 = Fair ConditionThis Fairfax World Class Dressage is one of the brand's flagship dressage saddles, built for riders who want a close, balance-focused seat and the flexibility to fine-tune the fit themselves as their horse changes over a season. It's a saddle that rewards a rider who already has a settled position, rather than one still finding their seat.
Fit & feel
- Changeable Gullet system with R-Bar gullet bars, adjustable across a wide range of widths without needing to send the saddle away
- Adjustable shoulder blocks, available in three thicknesses and removable individually, so fit can be tailored asymmetrically if one side needs it
- Wool-flocked Performance Panel with Prolite lining, designed to be re-flocked and rebalanced by a fitter over time
- Three-billet girthing, with the second and third billets as the usual starting point before fine-tuning
- Monoflap design for close contact with the horse's side and minimal bulk under the leg
- Seat built around Fairfax's balance-focused design, aimed at improving symmetry rather than simply adding depth or padding
This one suits an established dressage horse and rider who want a premium, adjustable saddle they can keep tuned themselves rather than a fixed-fit option. If you wanted to compare the knee block feel, the Fairfax World Class II Dressage is worth trying alongside it, as it shares the same tree and gullet system but has a softer block and seat character.
As ever, that's a starting point for narrowing things down rather than a fit guarantee, so we'd recommend trialling it alongside an appointment with a fitter to see how it sits on your horse.
