• Finding suitable equipment when buying a new horse 

• Check the suitability of existing equipment 

• Morphological changes in the horse (typically after time off work, new environment, increase in work load, growth, etc.) 

• Decreased performance when ridden (refusing to jump or knocking more poles, getting lower dressage scores, becomes disunited in canter) 

• Injury around the withers or girth area 

• Horse ‘misbehaves’ when being tacked up or when being mounted  

• Acute or recurrent back pain for the horse and/or rider 

• Your vet, physiotherapist or osteopath think that the saddle could be part of the cause in a drop in performance or lameness of your horse 

• Rider discomfort in the saddle 

• Saddle presenting an anomaly (squeaking, folds, etc.) 

• You want a new saddle! 

 

A saddle does not need to be new or expensive, it just needs to fit. I can help find a second-hand saddle if your budget does not allow you to buy a brand-new saddle.
