Hello!!!! Have lurked for a little while but thought I would join in! I "think" I may own something a little bit different - I have got a Quarab!!! Remus is a 15.3 liver chestnut - a rather quirky and sensitive little flower. We are mainly "happy hackers" but have dreams of doing a bit of low level dressage. He is the 2nd part Arab I have owned - my first horse was an AA/Welsh Sec D cross.
If anyone has any ideas about a saddle for Remus please let me know. Am desperate for an Arab Saddle Company endurance but need to muster some more funds! Any ideas on anything similar please!

Hi and welcomea few people on here have Quarab's do you have any pictures of him? I use an Ideal Ramsay saddle which I use for everyday riding and a bit of showing, I don't have any experience of endurance saddles sorry, but there are loads of people on here that do. |

Hello and welcome I also own a Quo/Arab who is up for sale on this site at the moment. He is smashing and so easy to train I hope yours is the same and wish you great success with him, have a look on eBay for a saddle sometimes you can grab a real bargain. Again Welcome and enjoy. Alison |

I have found that the main thing with saddles is to have them fitted correctly - I have a saddler who has a very good range of second hand saddles - you can save a fortune that way, and trade it against another saddle if you horse grows out of it. I have a nearly new fieldhouse VSD on my youngster which I got for half the new price.
I had two Arabian Saddle Co. Endurance saddles (for 2 different horses), fitted me well, but weren't so good for the horses - on one the stirrup bars caused pressure points when he built up fitness(despite saddle being checked by 3 different saddlers), however he did have the most incredible OTT trot. But all horses are a different shape, and what suits one doesn't suit another. |
