Fairfax Rebecca Hughes MDR

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.

• The seat is more ‘forward’ in order to precisely align the rider more ‘in’ over the horse’s centre of balance
• Monoflap close contact design
• Performance panels
• Discreet snakeskin print on the cantle and stirrup loop adds enough glamour to turn heads while still oozing style.
• Grey stitching on the flaps and welting on the seat brings a touch of class and elegance.
• A recess in the flap allows the riders’ upper leg to form a closer contact with the horse’s side without any uncomfortable rubbing.
• Surface mounted thigh blocks designed to give the rider enhanced support without restricting their position.
• Full grain leather for an instant pre-broken-in feel.
• Three set of shoulder blocks - second hand saddles will only come with the blocks attached unless stated otherwise
• Changeable gullet bar for easy adjustment as your horse changes shape
• Prolite lined panels for added comfort
• Takes gullet bars from Narrow Medium to XW - XXWide

• Discipline: Dressage
• Flap type: Monoflap
• Material: Leather
• Panel type: Wool flocked panels
• RRP: vs Our Price: £ 2,850.00 vs. £ 2,850.00

Following the unprecedented success of the Fairfax Gareth Dressage Monoflap saddle, we started to receive repeated requests for a more ‘feminine’ version. So we asked renowned producer of young dressage horses and equestrian style icon Rebecca Hughes to add some luxurious design touches. Based on her husband’s bestselling Gareth saddle, the Rebecca Monoflap benefits from all the features common to every saddle in the Performance range, plus the following details: Discreet snakeskin print on the cantle and stirrup loop adds enough glamour to turn heads while still oozing style. Grey stitching on the flaps and welting on the seat brings a touch of class and elegance. The seat is more ‘forward’ in order to precisely align the rider more ‘in’ over the horse’s centre of balance, allowing the rider to feel a greater connection with their horse without restricting the ability to give the subtle aids or adjustments. The unique design and placement of the billets gives the saddle fitter two adjustment options to fine-tune the fit to the horse’s shape and movement. Three thicknesses of adjustable shoulder blocks allow the rider to sit squarely on a horse with asymmetrical shoulders while allowing the horse to move freely underneath, building up muscle without restriction. Simply use the thicker block on the side with less muscle. A recess in the flap allows the riders’ upper leg to form a closer contact with the horse’s side without any uncomfortable rubbing. Surface mounted thigh blocks give the rider enhanced support without restricting their position. The Fairfax Rebecca is available with longer or shorter custom flap options, depending on your leg length

The Rebecca is an extremely popular dressage saddle for its adjustability, and performance panels. It offers the rider a really supportive seat, and is a super saddle for everyday use and competing

*6 month soundness warranty is provided on all second hand saddles. Saddles are sold sound, and we expect a saddle with an average amount of use to have many years of use. Warranty is only valid on saddles which have been well cared for, and maintained by the purchaser, and does not include accidental damage, fire, or theft. Any alterations made by a saddle fitter or owner will deem the warranty invalid as the person who has made such changes is responsible for the safety of the saddle.
**Guaranteed buy back price is offered on all saddles within 9 months of the original purchase date. The price offered is 20% less the purchase price of second hand saddles, and 35% less the purchase price of new saddles. The guaranteed buy back price is also condition dependent, and the saddle must be in a comparable condition to guarantee the price. The Guaranteed buy back price is only available to UK mainland clients.
