I have just this minute got a new horse, cleveland bay x tb, gorgeous boy, hehe. He is 17 but still as fit as a 6 year old. He will jump anything and do every dressage move you can think of-piaffe, spanish walk-half past etc.
He has come with a made to measure jumping saddle but we can only loan it for a month until we get another one. I really want to do some prelim dressge, and a few 90cm jumps. Am I best getting a dressage saddle and every so often pop a few jumps, but also do some dressage, or get another jumping saddle? The problem is though, If I get a Jumping/GP saddle I wont be able to do dressage, without purchasing another saddle.
What is the best thing to do, I think the first option, but would like other peoples opinions.
Thanks for reading!
