17 inch Black Country GPD Black Medium Wide
Saddle ID: S9499
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.

This works well on Warmblood, Quarter Horse, Arab and Draught types. Dippy tree, which suits horses with a sway-backed, and Native tree, which is a wide head and shape suited to Native types with some shape to their back. Show Tree, which features a wide head with some shape to the tree, making it suitable for ponies and native types.
As the saddle is wool flocked, your fitter can make on-site adjustments to fine-tune the fit to your horse’s shape as needed.
