Re: Saddle search

["Tracey" <tracey@tbt.co.za>]

You might also want to try an Appaloosa dressage saddle.  It is an Italian
saddle, and VERY expensive, but easily the best saddle around.  My
instructor brought one over on Sunday to ride PG in and I swear I could have
fallen asleep in it, it was that comfortable.


Failing that, have a look at a County.  Before I saw that damned Appaloosa,
I swore blind I'd only ever ride in a County.  Now I'm going to have to rob
a bank and buy the Appaloosa (Two thousand Pounds Sterling!)
