My 15.1 welsh x connie is currently in a Derby House Samber saddle, which fits him really well. My problem is that I would like to do more jumping with him, and as the Samber is a Working Hunter saddle, I don't feel terribly secure in it.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what GP/Jumping saddle is a similar shape to the Samber? Preferably something that won't break the bank, as if I spend a fortune on a new saddle I won't be able to tax and insure the lorry, and at that point I won't be able to go competing and therefore won't need a new saddle anyway... if you see what I mean :)

Thankyou :)
 
Im not sure what shape the samber is but,

I have a Jeffries Falcon Hawk Event one of the best gp's around or so i have been told,
My horse has a wide back and fits him very well
they are 1110 new however some very decent second hand ones around from anything from 150 to 900 second hand, and they hold their value really well,

It is forward enough to be sufficient for jumping Im 5ft 10 and i really struggle to fins saddles my long thighs dont poke off the end of but I fit this one really well!
 
My girl is a conny x tb (more conny body than tb mind - XW saddle, big shoulders, flat back) and she has a barnsby. Mine was BN but afaik second hand ones are relatively cheap. (my last one cost £250).
