I have always foudn the nu-med ones to be great but i only have the GP ones so cant really comment on the dressagey ones sorry!
i always use the Barnsby grip pad, they arent maybe as *high* as the numed's, but because of the grip material they use on the underneath of the saddle, once you have the pad in place it will not move down onto the withers ever.

I use Numed Hi-wither and really like them especially as they come in various styles and colours.
I use the NuuMed too, for my dressage saddle 
Good, hardwearing, not thick, stays put and gives withers plenty of room. And not too expensive either!
Ooh, they're on offer at Derby House... http://www.derbyhouse.co.uk/prodshow.asp?id=1741&cat=250&scats=250
I might just need a new one
HAve the pad with half wool lining too, but mainly just use the thin everyday one.

ummm - ok - i'm going against the grain!!!
nu-med are good for the wool lined numnahs... BUT - the normal everyday cotton ones are still bound with nylon (cheapscapes!) and IMVHO are no better quality than the roma high wither equivelent (at a LOT less ££'s) when you hold them side by side! sorry

I like the polypad hight withered ones - used to ride a real spikey withered horse who seemed to like it as well. AND when it's really cold you can put it on your knee whilst eating sandwiches at the yard - it's like a little duvet
