Totally motiveless and innocent poll... feel free to add questions...

[Santa_Claus]

Have 3 saddles currently

1 x Wintec 17.5" brown GP with med/wide fitting not actually doing anything
1 x Wintec 17.5" Black Isabelle dressage with med/wide fitting also very rarely used (needs wide in it!)
1 x Albion Selecta with jumping/xc knees (but brill for SJing!) beautiful orangey brown colour 17.5" seat and med wide stamped but as old stretched to wide.

I have a 17" too!

Nice saddle...I wish it was narrower and I would buy Ellie it, if of course you were selling it.....whcih of course you are not

 

[Gingernags]

Ah but you'd be welcome to try any such saddle just to see if it did fit - in case you did want to buy one of a similar size and make??!!!

 

[Farm Kat]

I could only mark for the one, but I have 8 at present

1 black 17" wide GP
1 Havannah VSD XW 17"
1 maxam cob 17" xxw
1 thorogood 16" w now pony club one
1 thorogood 16.5" mw GP style
1 havanna 17" Jumping saddle, old and stretched, so more like XW than the Wide
1 narrow leather saddle, havana and 15" that actually fits nothing, and very old.
1 15" maxam pony

and 2 x pony pad felt things that I use as fisrt saddles for breaking and my niece when she rides.

.... far too many, and I'm looking at getting some SC ones in the future.

I wandered as lonely as a 17.5" medium black Kings VSD Saddle that drifts on high and is interested in meeting a riders bottom that would appreciate comfort and craftsmanship, GSOH essential, photo optional

As a matter of interest I might be interested in arranging a meeting if proposed new neddie shows up. There is always a budget for social events, do you have a guide as to whether this is just drinks, a 3 course meal or a hotel for the night

 

[Gingernags]

Ah now I think drinks first - get to know you sort of thing - see if there is a good "fit" possible. Would imagine some kind of visit to check for long term compatibility.

This is a relatively young and untried thing you see, only used to one partner for a homely life with the odd quiet outing...

I'm sure we can reach some kind of understanding!

 

[MrsMagoo]

I have 2 at the mo but soon to be 3 if I can find a nice dressage/or VDS/showing saddle??? *wink wink size 17 or 17.5inch med/wide - good price needed

Other saddles i have our GFS black GP 17.5 med/wide for Star and a 16.5 med brown GFS for Ari...both I picked up for bargain prices new...whoo hooo

 

[threeponies]

I've got a black Torsion endurance treeless saddle for my Highland, size 17.5" couldn't find a treed one wide enough! Oh and a cub for the wee ones.

 

[CastleMouse]

I have 4 saddles, 2 GP's, 1 jumping, and a dressage one. 3 of them are havana/brown, and the dressage one is black. They are all 16.5" and medium fit

 

[Christmas_Kate]

I have a 15" gp x wide gp, and a 16" medium havana show saddle.

 

[druid]

6, down from 10 and am buying another 2 this weekend

17.5" Narrow Stubben Siegfried VSD Havana
17.5" Hennig Sofa titanium (dressage) currently adjusted to Narrow/medium "jet"
17.5" Narrow Thorowgood Supra Dressage Black
17" Berneys Dublin Jumping Havana
17" XW Collegiate GP in havana/newmarket contrast
16.5" Med Black County WH

Arriving on Sunday are ...

16" Duett Dressage Black
17.5" Albion Ultima SLk (on trial)

 

[Malibu]

3 saddles, two jumping and one dressage, two black and the other oak

 

[Gingernags]

well now, my lovely saddle that at some point i may advertise... ahem... has been used for a few county level WHP classes and it was perfect - some knee roll for security but cut straighter to show off a good shoulder.

in hindsight, spending hundreds on changing to havana tack was such a waste for someone elses kid that let us down so badly, however, now I have my saddle company GP - its much more suitable for me than a £700 saddle that can easily belong in a show ring.

But I digress, if anyone does want to know the vital statistics, will happily get them and let you know the... aaahhh... going rate!!!

 

[eventingdiva]

i've one albion brownish 17.5" wide GP
one 17.5" narrow/medium black kieffer dressage saddle
one 17.5" albion lux brown with pigs skin(?!) seat medium dressage saddle
and one 17.5" brown hawk event saddle x

 

[Dotilas]

One wintec 500 GP in narrow.
One thorowgood Maxam in extra wide.
One thorowgood T4 in medium.
One thorowgood T6 in wide.
One ideal jessica dressage in some strange size.

All for two horses

Only two of them fit, but I'll keep them for my future horses

Working on the mother for another TB

 

[S_N]

Well I have 3 saddles and no riding horse to put any of them on

This one 18" Ray Hinton GP Narrow - I think

This one 18" Saddle Company Dressage, square cantle, verona style

This one 17.5" Exselle GP - narrow

 

[Doreys_Mum]

I have a whole bunch of havana gps in varius sizes... which is a shame.. cos I only have two horses...

 

[Gingernags]

So basically we need to start a dating agency? matching saddles with backsides

Am liking the SC Dressage, sadly wrong size and colour for me. I'd say shame but my bank balance would NOT agree!!!!!

Hence needing to rehome my beautiful Kings.
