New show saddle for ponies

Jeffries has launched a new pony saddle for the show ring

A correctly fitted saddle that helps the rider maintain an effective position while enhancing the horse’s front and allowing the shoulder to move freely is vital for the show ring.

With this in mind, Jeffries has developed a new pony show saddle especially for show ponies and their young riders.

The Elegance Show Pony saddle features a hard-wearing plastic tree, is made from top quality leather and is flocked with pure wool to ensure top levels of comfort for the pony.

The straight cut flaps ensure the pony’s shoulder has complete freedom and is displayed at its best, while the seat is designed to help the rider sit in balanced position.

Available in 15 and 16ins in medium or wide fit in a choice of black or havana.

Cost at around £550.
