Hello all,

I know there are some real saddleaholics on here, so i am asking for advice>>>>>

I currently have a Humphries & Swain St Merryn saddle (with double padded Moffett seat mmmmmmm:smug:) Now, love this saddle for flat work, showing & ploddy hacking. But for faster work & jumping it's a big no no as when the haffy goes into 'not going to stop mode' my brakes fail me (someting to do with the stirrup placement & my awful seat & balance):frown:

So, what can you suggest for a Haflinger that is built like a tank, has stirrup bars in the 'old school' position & knee rolls, oh & something that i can find 2nd hand!! I did have a TG T6 but my knees come right over the front! He needs a 17" as very short coupled - which doesn't suit my rather large behind.

Please help!!
