Thorowgood T8 Dressage

I had one, no pics I'm afraid. It was great for me as a rider, really liked the position it put me in.

(But it was no good at all for my horse as it did very little to spread the rider's weight and put a lot of pressure over a small surface area, in my vet's opinion - horse hated it!!)
 
I have one for my tb the high whither version, he likes it, my instructor feels it puts me in a good position and she feels good riding in it. It's got a nice deep seat as tested today while hacking a swift spin and my bum didn't leave the saddle!! Her pic although quality bit rubbish and please ignore horse-

I have the high wither kent and masters dressage ( same thing, just more leather) and instructor (successful dressage rider herself) is happy with how it sits me. No photos though, sorry.
 
Thankyou for your replies very helpful :) I really want a saddle with big knee rolls to keep me in place and this one sounds ideal 😊
 
I have the T8 and I am very impressed with it, keeps me in a very good position even when my mare is hopping around, I had to swop out of a gorgeous farrington WH saddle as she changed shape and I was a little dubious as had synthetics years ago and wanted to stick ideally to a leather one, I love the comfy leather seat and leather knee rolls and it feels like you're riding in a good leather saddle, hubby agrees it's fantastic as it's got a changeable gullet there won't be any more saddle shopping! Highly recommend it.
