I'm thinking about buying a Prestige D1 dressage saddle as I've heard really good things about them.
Does anyone have one and do you rate it?

HM I have one and its the nicest saddle I have ever ridden in! It puts me in such a secure and balanced position so my aids are effective and precise. I'd tried sooooo many saddles before this one and now I wouldn't swap it for the world! I think that's why you don't see many second hand ones for sale as once people have tried them, they don't go back to any other dressage saddle! My horse used to swish his tail a lot, evade, wasn't very responsive off the leg and really struggled with lateral work. Since using the D1, he has a great attitude to schooling and is able to do what I'm asking him to do. He's become supple and flexible.
Have you seen one in person? They are slightly cut away at the front which means the horse's shoulders can move freely so your TB won't feel restricted.
