I bet you could get a better response if you asked what grade of Linseed oil to use.
It ain't got no horn, where's your rope supposed to hang? The gullet and cantle look a little short too.
Thars Western saddles and English saddles, both of which are huge in the U.S. Daughter will do dressage/flatwork so don't need no westarn saddle mate. Cheers..s
Heard they are ok for training work and riding in the rain, some people like 'em, others swear at them. If she isn't going to show, always do low level work they can be ok I hear. Crosby's, Barnes, Passoa, Dover, couple of others, or top shelf- Stueben are good saddles, can always pick one up used, I like leather.
Is that with the air cushion or the adjustable tree? Adjustable trees are nice by the way. Is the Wintec saddle ok for competition? We had a Wintec 500 low end Wintec. It was a nice saddle. But my daugher has been through a few saddles over the years and she just bought a $4,000.custom dressage saddle.. Daughter getting into dressage? too bad.
This picture was taken last year, The horse has beefed up quite since then, the saddle which fit is now too small ,that is why an adjustable tree is nice .

I like how the horse "industry" (for lack of a better term) has responded to heavier baby boomers. The breeding of draft horses crossed with thoroughbreds is more common. Refined brutes of beauty for the plump rider
Horse riding was fun when I was a kid ..not so much as when I was a teenager ..and was merely occasional as an adult. It did make mucking stalls with girls that had horses easier.
A bit of dressage on the cards. Saddler o'due but then it is a public holiday (Australia Day)
New saddle yet???

We have two horses my wife and daughter ride. I really do not care to ride when I was a kid it was fun .
