A dressage saddle on an adjustable medium wide tree, in black covered leather.

Ovation describes the intent as balance without a forced position, which is a specific claim about how a dressage saddle should work: it should let a rider find a seat rather than hold one for them. The construction follows it. AMS panels carry the contact, the knee block is Velcro-mounted and repositionable rather than fixed, so the block moves to the leg instead of the leg moving to the block, and the leather is covered rather than printed, which is the grippier of the two finishes.

Specifications:

  • Black covered leather
  • Adjustable XCH tree, medium wide
  • AMS panels
  • Repositionable Velcro knee block
  • Medium flap
  • Seat sizes 16.5 and 17.0

The adjustable tree:

This saddle is built on the XCH adjustable tree, which takes interchangeable gullet plates. A horse that changes shape across a season, or a rider working more than one horse, does not need a second saddle. That is the specification doing the work.

What sets this one apart:

This is a dressage saddle on an adjustable XCH tree in medium wide, with AMS panels carrying the contact. The knee block is Velcro-mounted and repositionable, so it moves to the leg rather than the leg moving to it. The leather is black and covered rather than printed, which is the grippier of the two finishes.

Why it is here:

A knee block that moves. It is Velcro-mounted and repositionable, so the block moves to the leg rather than the leg moving to the block.
