18 inch Fairfax World Class Dressage II Black Adjustable

Saddles are permitted on a 5 day UK mainland trial. Simply add the saddle to your basket and proceed to check out. The trial starts on the day you receive the saddle.
Full payment is taken for the saddle at the point of check out. If the saddle fits – great! No further action required.

Is your fitter not coming until next week? No problem!
Select your delivery date at check out. Please note we recommend having the saddle delivered 2 working days before your saddle fitting appointment in case of any unexpected delays with the courier.

Sadly we are not able to offer a trial internationally at present. However, most of our international clients still find it cheaper to import a quality saddle from UK than to source one in their own country.

Typically fits:

This saddle typically works on horses with a standard back profile and standard wither.
It features two girth straps that can be used in the five different girth slots to help achieve a better fit.
This saddle has wool-flocked panels, so your fitter can make minor adjustments to the flocking to get the best fit for your horse.
This saddle includes the innovative Fairfax Performance Panel, proven to improve limb extension, joint movement, and evenness of stride. The panel design reduces pressure on the horse’s shoulder by separating the weight under the seat from the area over the shoulder, allowing freer movement—especially helpful for horses with large or active shoulders.
It also features an adjustable gullet tree, so the width can easily be altered by swapping out the gullet bars.

Please note the below features of this model are as standard from new.
Please check the photos and condition details to see if there are any differences shown such as missing knee blocks for example.

This saddle is classed as GRADE 3: Used saddle, excellent condition, not considered new but minimal signs of wear. May have minor scuff/wear if highlighted in photos.

Scientifically developed and delivering a remarkable feeling of synchronicity and 'oneness' between horse and rider.

The deformable knee block is slightly higher and slightly more tilted providing a different interface option for the rider’s leg to the World Class I
The block incorporates a shock-absorbing element that accommodates the forward movement of the knee – the optimal level of support without restriction.
To fine tune the leg support further, thanks to a quick and easy adjustment, the flap can be tilted through three different positions to move the block in relation to the rider’s thigh
Softer seat for rider feel-appeal
The Prolite-lined full panel has additional strengthening built into the top to maximise saddle stability
The World Class Dressage saddles are the only saddles to be scientifically tested with pressure mapping under the saddle and under the rider, combined with simultaneous two-dimensional and three-dimensional analysis of both horse and rider.
Luxurious, super-grippy calf leather
