Hiya,
We have had great difficulty sopping my girlie's saddle from moving forward but before anybody pounces the saddle that she has had for the last year (roughly) was found at the end of a 2year search and was agreed by two saddle fitters and my instructor to be the best fit (aside from getting one made to measure, which we simply can,t afford). The saddles tend to move because she has your typical pony very well sprung ribs but practically no wither.
For the last 6 months I have been using the most basic acavallo gel pad, which has been working (ie the saddle stays in place) but I've noticed that when she sits up she tends to chuck her head and the physio reckons this is a result of the pad being too thin and perhaps we need something a bit thicker.
so which do you think would be worth buying?

or

or any other suggestions?
thanks in advance
