I have an express lite that I have ridden for 2 years. I have an arab
arabian that is a typical small show horse, and a russian arabian stallion
that looks like a morgan. They are very different builds.
The express lite works great on both horses. I ride competitive trail in
the open division. We finished 3rd in the region for 1995. Back soreness is
an area that the vet judges concentrate on. We do not loose points for sore
backs or rubs. I love my saddle and would go buy another if anything
happened to this one. My gelding is very short backed and the saddle just
fits lenth wise.
I just wanted to let everyone know another point of view.
The saddle quality is excellent, and has worn well with all of the miles
of training and competition. I believe in the flexable panel system. It
has worked for me.
