I had a post on here recently about going treeless and there are so many for and against... so I think I have found the best in between... found an amazing saddle which my friend has been using for years! Super comfy, cheap, great for all aspects and ideal for breaking and bringing on... heres a description:
The Shires Hi-Lite Elite Club GP Saddle has a well shaped seat with cut back head, crafted from durable leather look material, adjustable knee rolls.
Benefit Self-Adjusting Gullet System
Hi-Lite Elite with 'Benefit System' makes fitting so simple that you only need to choose between a standard or wide gullet.
'Benefit Standard Gullets' are combined with a tailored panel that will fit most horses. The 'Benefit Wide Gullet' saddles and combination wide panel will fit horses requiring a very wide gullet.
This unique 'Benefit Self-Adjusting Gullet' technology allows one gullet to fit your horse throughout its life cycle of growth and varying condition. The hinged plates on the gullet are embedded in the padded saddle point pockets. They simply self-adjust to your horses wither / shoulder profile when you girth up and to the riders shifting weight. The system also offers freedom and flexibility of movement through your horses shoulders.
Anybody else had dealings with these saddles , would love to hear good or bad review...
I have just bought one on ebay for £105 with stirrups and leathers :) BARGAIN

I think its the perfect saddle for breaking and bringing on :) it does look cheap but its doing a good job then a few years down the line I can pay out for a decent one ... a friend has one and ive ridden her mare in it and they are really comfortable so I just had to buy one for my boy ... havnt heard 1 bad review on one yet which is always a good sign |

Have been looking at these for our 5 yr old but not actually tried one, would be interested to see what other people think to them. |

we sell them in the tack shop for £159 new but no stirups or leathers... I have never ridden in one so cant say what they are like... to me they look a bit cheap and tatty, and I much perfer Wintec if I am to ride in syntehetic saddles, in fact I have a Wintec close contact for Champ that I used for hacking when I firs backed him. |
