Saddle for Cobbette

[Mrs Trotter]

Has anyone got any suggestions for wide - but with withers, short backed cob with a big shoulder. I have an elderly county 17" GP which has had endless tweaking and now she has had enough - it really doesn't fit and neither of us have ever been happy with it.

We tried an ideal working hunter which didn't fit at all, saddle fitter suggesting a kent and masters one but I see they only do GP and because of big shoulder - Working hunter seems way forward. In usual cob style, she changes shape during summer, winter etc and due to tendon injury we are mainly happy hackers - we've also tried a tree less which rolled from side to side.
Has anyone tried Gill Thomas Endurance T4- think it might tick all the boxes?? any thoughts? or has any one got one they want to part with??

The T4 cob would tick your boxes as well - it's straight cut than the standard GP.
Don't know if K&M do a version of it?

Hi. I have the Kent and Masters cob gp saddle for my cob. She has big shoulders and it fits well and doesn't affect her shoulder movement.

Cheers chaps - that's given me some food for thought, now to get hold of saddle fitter who was supposed to be getting back to me..groan

I have an Ideal GP and a Jeffries Falcon Event. Both fit him really well and he sounds the same shape as your cob
