At last a saddle that fits
My journey started with a Stubben, stupid as didn’t like it but I needed something. Because I didn’t like it I bought a Wintec 500, but could see that didn’t fit. By now I had a date for the saddle fitter. Got confirmation neither suited the mare (only long reined) but gave a couple of suggestions. Mare is going off to be restarted, so had to act quickly & as luck would have it one came up which I dropped off to trainer. Guess what didn’t fit & nothing could be altered on the K&M to make it fit. This saddle fitter gave some suggestions & then sent a link for 3 with The Saddle Bank. Of course it was the most expensive of the 3. It arrived on Saturday as promised delivered to trainer Sunday & saddle fitter gave the all clear Monday. And not one alteration needed. The saddle is in good condition & fits her well. I have yet to try it out but I’m not concerned about me at this point. What made it so much harder my mare is croup high. Hoping as she is a 5yo TB she might level up a bit. Moto go with someone who has multiple choice & offers a return service. I’m now stuck with 2 saddles & a depleted savings account 😭

Hi Sue,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience!
It sounds like you had quite the saddle-fitting journey before finding the right one, so we're really pleased that The Saddle Bank could help make the final stage a little easier. Finding a saddle for a croup-high young Thoroughbred can certainly be challenging, especially when you've already tried several options.
We're delighted that the saddle arrived as promised, was in great condition and, most importantly, received the all-clear from your saddle fitter without needing any alterations.
Thank you for choosing The Saddle Bank. We hope your mare settles beautifully into her new saddle and that you both enjoy many happy rides together once she's restarted!
Best Wishes,
The Saddle Bank Team
