Hello everyone
I own a 15hh horse , and riding has been something we are finding more fun in , recently . We have been using an second hand Cheyenne barefoot treeless saddle , that I found as a bargain online . But we have been riding for more and more time , and I have noticed that the saddle is slipping forwards and Eon , my horse , says that it is slightly pinching him up around his top shoulder / wither . The saddle is not sitting on his withers or his spine , and we use a barefoot Grandeur pad, also we never ride with stirrups . I realise that I am going to have to splash out on a new treeless saddle , and I was wondering if there was a specific model ( of barefoot saddles , my budget doesn't go farther than that ) that would be best for his conformation . He is very pre-eminent of a mustang ... with some PRE bloodlines . I have no idea of his breeding ... but this is my best guess of it ( apart from the fact he paces ) Is there any suggestions ?
Many thanks
Ali
