Hi guys, Anyone got any experience of makes of show jumping saddles that suit very high withered horses.
My saddler is coming next week with a couple to try but he wants to know if there are any other makes that I think I would like to try.
He's bringing a Keiffer and an Albion - I have never had such a high withered horse before so if anyone has any suggestions of makes that do suit high withers I'd welcome any comments please.

We have a very forward cut GP Kieffer for our horse who has massive withers and it fits like a dream (and is very very supportive for Alice).

my very high withered TB has an Albion Kontact XC...was procey and made to measure but fits brilliantly- really struggled to get any other saddle to sit up enough on him

Passiers, if you can find them. They have a "semi cut back head" as standard, which allows them to fit most high withered horses, even ones with wider backs.
