3.5 = Very Good Condition
3.0 = Good Condition
2.0 = Fair ConditionThis Ideal Grandee Elite Jump is a real find: a custom saddle with distinctive red piping, in fantastic condition. The Grandee Elite is Ideal's jump saddle based on their very popular Grandee GP, and it's designed primarily for the broader horse, built on the Aulton & Butler 286 tree. It's quite forward cut with decent fixed knee and calf blocks, so it's a great match for a rider who wants to jump or simply likes plenty of knee roll.
Fit & feel
- Built on the Aulton & Butler 286 tree, designed for broader horses, here in an extra-wide fitting
- Quite forward-cut flap, giving room for a shorter jumping stirrup
- Decent fixed knee blocks plus a fixed calf block, which isn't always found on a GP, for a really secure leg
- Wider twist for comfort in the saddle
- Wool-flocked panels, which a fitter can adjust to fine-tune the fit as your horse changes shape
- 1/2 front gussets, giving support while accommodating bigger shoulders
- Four fixed girth straps across point, middle and balance positions to help keep the saddle stable
- Custom red piping for a smart, distinctive finish
This one suits a broad pony or cob in an extra-wide fitting, ridden by someone who loves to jump or likes a supportive knee roll. If you'd like a little less block and a straighter flap for everyday riding, try the Ideal Grandee GP alongside it. The Elite is based on it, so compare how the forward cut and extra blocks change your leg position.
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.
