“I am lucky to own a beautiful
warmblood dressage mare who is 15 years young. She is beautifully built with
large powerful shoulders that can be an issue when trying to find a saddle to
fit.
Recently, she has had an issue
with her SI joint and could come out initially quite tight and stiff. So, after
her SI joint was treated, I was keen to do all I could to preserve my beautiful
mare, Bella, and keep her active.
That’s when I started looking
at SMART saddles. After reading the research I decided to take the plunge and
arranged to take a SMART PRO Dressage saddle on rental. As I live in Northern
Ireland, I arranged to have a remote fitting, which was fab, effective and
easy. Three weeks later my equine physio assessed Bella as ‘’in great shape
with little tightness’’.
I love my SMART PRO Dressage
saddle which gives me a close contact feel and is very stable - even the knee blocks
are fitted to my shape! Having bought the saddle, we have gone from strength to
strength. My trainer is delighted with our progress, we are scoring really well
and hoping to move up a level by Christmas.
I wouldn’t use any other saddle now!”
