[RC] THIN saddle pads for english saddle - Karen Casemier

(gee, with all the posting I've been doing lately, can you tell I'm trying to get my gear in order for the first ride in a little over two weeks?)

I posted the other week about saddle pad options for an English saddle. A lot of people recommended wool pads, and I was able to get a Toklat pad on clearance from Sporttack. Lovely pad, way too thick. My saddle fits great right now - the pad may work if my horse looses more weight and the saddle becomes a touch wide, but right now the pad disrupts the balance of the saddle.

Since HRH (her royal highness) has sensisitive skin, I want to stick to natural fibers as much as possible (wool or cotton). Does anyone know where I could get a thinner wool pad, or have suggestions on cotton pads that hold up to the level of riding we do (and if I can clean them in the washing machine, so much the better)?

Thanks

Karen and Mazzie
