Gorgeous 17.5" Thornhill Platinum Series 24K close contact saddle. Custom long flap (15 in from stirrup bar to bottom of flap), wide tree. Flocking is wool with closed cell vinyl foam sandwiched in the middle to help maintain its shape while still being able to form to your horse's back. Lightly grained premium pre-oiled vegetable tanned oakbark leather with a waxy finish makes for beautiful leather that holds its color, lasts forever, and provides lots of stick. Features include light weight memory/flex tree, longer Equitation style flaps, balanced seat, narrower twist and wide premium panels. This saddle offers exceptional comfort and close contact feel. Has been used as an Equitation saddle for many years, including rides and top placings in the hunter seat medal finals at national level horse shows. Perfectly balanced seat make it easy to maintain correct equitation, while rear thigh blocks encourage your leg to stay still and in the correct position without feeling forced. This saddle has always been a barn favorite as it fits a wide variety of horses beautifully and makes it very easy to find your balanced seat and correct equitation. Every person who has borrowed my saddle has liked it so much they went out and bought one for themselves! I no longer have a hunter horse, and due to a changing financial situation I am forced to part with this gem of a saddle. I am the first owner of this saddle, and it has always been kept in a saddle bag, cleaned and conditioned regularly. It has never been dropped, bumped or damaged in any way. Stitching is in great shape, no missing stitching, no fraying and no repairs needed. Standard discoloration and wear marks due to use on seat and flaps. Comes with beautiful 48" girth with roller buckles and elastic on one side that matches perfectly and is in wonderful condition. Originally paid over $2,000 for the saddle and girth, so this is a steal! Please feel free to ask questions. No returns.
