Caprilli Dressage
What are your opinions on Bates dressage saddles?
What are your opinions of Bates dressage saddles? I started dressage with a Wintec, because my giant TB is so hard to fit, because he is not the typical narrow TB. Now I have shown and have a lot more experience, so I need a more serious dressage saddle. I think I will stick with the "easy change gullet system" because I can't fit my TB in anything! I want to stay under $2K for the next saddle, and I am finding Bates Isabell and Bates Innova, as well as Bates Caprilli online in my price range. Wanted to know who has them, who likes them/dislikes them, who has heard good/bad things about them. I would love to ride in a Passier or something nice, but I can't fit my gelding in these saddles. Any opinions, etc, are welcome, thanks!
I think that the Bates saddles are comfortable, but then I use mine for hunter/jumper. I'm sure that the dressage are similar to the hunter/jumper, but I think that they are great saddles. I think the Caprilli are the nicest, but go with your gut.
Good Luck!
