Designed to allow a greater connection with the horse, the forward seat precisely aligns the rider more ‘in’ over the horse’s centre of balance.
 
This saddle supersedes the Fairfax Performance Gareth Monoflap Dressage Saddle.
 
Surface-mounted thigh block gives the experienced rider support without restricting their position
Patented Performance Panel is proven to help the horse move more freely, improving extension, flexion and gait symmetry
Use the shoulder blocks to fine tune the amount of leg support the rider requires
Customise the blocks to allow the rider to sit squarely on a horse with asymmetrical shoulders
Luxurious, super-grippy Italian calf leather
 
This saddle features the ground-breaking Fairfax Performance Panel which is scientifically proven to increase limb extension, joint flexion and gait symmetry.
The weight-bearing part of the panel under the rider’s seat is separated from the part under the rider’s knee (which lies over the horse’s shoulder). This allows the horse’s shoulder independence of movement, free from any restriction that a traditional panel could potentially cause – particularly beneficial on a horse with big shoulders or big shoulder movement.
 
Performance and World Class Dressage Saddles are supplied with three thicknesses of changeable shoulder blocks.
Select the thickness of block according to rider preference - the thicker the block, the ‘closer’ it will bring the flap to the rider’s leg.
If a horse has asymmetrical shoulders, use the thicker block on the side with less muscle. This allows the rider to sit squarely while the horse is free to move underneath, building up muscle without restriction. Some riders might prefer for the block to be removed completely, in this case, replace it with a 'blank'.
 
Scientifically researched
All Fairfax saddles are designed using the scientific research and development that goes into our Performance and World Class ranges. Every saddle benefits from our pressure-relieving design experience – so the horse benefits too!
 
Prolite®-lined panel
The wool-flocked panels are lined with a layer of Prolite® for proven pressure distribution, while still allowing for traditional re-flocking on site.
 
Changeable Gullet Bars
All saddles feature a changeable gullet bar (either S-Bar or R-Bar) which allows the saddle fitter to choose the width fitting that best suits the profile of the horse’s withers. The bars can be changed quickly and easily as the horse develops or changes shape.
