Dressage saddles with good knee rolls - reccommendations?

[Ginge Crosby]

As above, looking to replace my issabell werth wintec for a nice leather saddle, wanting something with good knee rolls. My ideal saddle would be a bates innova but hey ho i'm dreaming, budget won't stretch that far! So i'm looking for a good (/well known) make, (albion, Ideal, etc) ideally leather, with deep seat and good sized knee rolls, to suit a high withered, large shouldered TB. Havent got a massive budget, i'd say £300 second hand, maybe a little more at a push. So, any suggestions?

Second hand Albion SLK with a high head. Doubt you will find this under £500, but it does meet your other criteria.

thanks mtj, been looking at some slk's on ebay, prices arent too bad so might be able to stretch that far. thanks

Gosh your miles away I have a keiffer that would probably fit came off my high withered tb has larger knee rolls as he liked to buck.... Alot! Shame we aren't nearer :-(

I have one which I think would be perfect - I can pm you details and photos if you haven't found a saddle yet

We're in Shropshire so not a million miles away either!

I've got an Albion SLK and love it. Have you looked on Saddle Direct's website? They usually have lots of 2nd hand saddles for sale.

I've got a Southern Stars dressage saddle and I love it. It really locks my knees in place.
