This used saddle is in 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 ConditionIf you like plenty of support in the saddle, the Kent & Masters S-Series Dressage Surface Block is well worth a trial. It's built around a large, fixed knee block mounted on the surface of the flap, giving you a stable, close-contact feel without ever feeling like it's boxing your leg in. The deep dressage seat encourages a balanced, correct position, and is a standard fit, so it suits a broad range of horse shapes rather than anything at the extremes.
- Large surface-mounted knee block for stability and rider security, designed to support without restricting movement
- Deep, secure dressage seat that encourages balance and an effective riding position
- Suited to horses with an average wither shape
- Changeable gullet bar (long R-bar type), so you can adjust the width as your horse's shape changes
- Wool-flocked panels, which mould and settle to the horse's back for even, consistent panel contact
- Changeable girth straps offering three girthing arrangements, so stability can be fine-tuned to your horse
This one tends to suit riders who want a bit more surface support under the leg than a moveable block gives you, on a horse with a fairly standard wither shape rather than notably high or low. If you're trialling it alongside the Moveable Block version of the same S-Series Dressage, the block itself is the main thing to compare: fixed and surface-mounted here versus adjustable position on the Moveable Block, so it comes down to how much flexibility you want in where the support sits.
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.
