This saddle has a slightly flatter tree on the underside and compact, slimline panels that allow the rider to feel closer to the horse. Although the seat is true to size, it offers a different feel to our Original GP and petite riders or those with narrower hips may feel it suits them better. This saddle is ideal for shorter backed, croup high or flat backed horses as well as standard fits. Super-comfy deeper seat that gives you a little extra in-saddle security and locates you centrally for balance and control. Versatile GP that’s forward enough cut to allow for jumping and cross-country as well as schooling and hacking. Fully adjustable knee and calf blocks provide customised leg support. Luxurious suede-effect seat covering and knee pads are non-slip and really comfortable to ride on. Flocked with 100% British wool.
