3.0 = Good Condition
2.0 = Fair ConditionThe Junior Vanquish is Fiona Cork's dressage saddle for the younger or more petite rider, and it's a genuinely thoughtful bit of design rather than just a scaled down adult saddle.
The narrower seat gives a smaller rider something they can actually sit in and around, the knee blocks are mounted on Velcro so they can be moved as a rider's position develops, and there are four girthing options underneath so your fitter has real scope to sort out where the saddle sits. Fiona Cork Saddles are a British maker based in Telford who build each saddle individually from the tree upwards, so a used one at this price is a lot of saddle for the money.
Fit & feel
- 16" seat on a pony tree, so panel length and flap size stay in proportion to a pony's back
- Narrower Vanquish seat, designed for junior and petite riders rather than adapted from an adult block
- Velcro mounted knee blocks that can be repositioned to suit the rider's leg, so the saddle can grow with them instead of being outgrown
- Four girthing options including a point strap and a balance strap, currently set up on the middle and balance straps
- Currently a medium fit, with a semi curved tree profile and an open head
- Deep seat that encourages a classical dressage position without locking a developing rider in place
- Straight cut dressage flaps for a long leg and close contact through the inner thigh
This suits a pony of medium build with some wither definition, and a junior rider who is ready for a proper dressage saddle but growing fast enough that adjustable blocks earn their keep. 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 pony.
