I have a short backed and a big round barreled - and I mean short and 
big - horse. His back is also flat. The only saddle I could find that 
fit him was the Baker Trail - same tree and seat as the Baker Dressage. 
The nice thing about the flatter seat is I can ride comfortably in a 
smaller seat because there is a larger flat area in the seat. This 
allows shorter tree (larger seat sizes require longer trees) for his 
short back. It's worked out well for him. I just got to get used to how 
wide he is. I go from riding the Jbird, tall long elliptical rib cage in 
a narrow to medium tree to riding Avanti big round rib cage in a very 
wide tree. Going from one to the other is "interesting."  If nothing 
else - it keeps me flexible.
