Hi, any ideas for saddles with big deep panels? Ie for a horse who has a low/under muscled back?

Our Albions need all the pads on a prolite at back so wondering if anyone can thunk of a saddle would come up higher at the back? Hope that makes sense?

According to be my saddle fitter, the thorowgood high wither had the deepest rear gusset of all his saddles. He was an Albion stockist too.
 
My DH regularly makes saddles with deeper front and rear gussets in order to lift the entire panel to clear a more prominent spine. But, in order for it to work, the right tree for your horse must also be used.

Front gussets are normally 2" deep on either side and rear gussets between 3.5" - 4" deep, in order to obtain the necessary lift off the horse's back. He makes a lot of saddles like this for the hunting community.
