Developed from Black Country's showing range, this Working Hunter saddle combines a flatter, showing-style seat with a more forward-cut flap, giving you the security to shorten your stirrups for jumping while keeping that classic showing profile. It's a saddle that works particularly well as a general purpose option for cobs and other native types, without losing the elegant look judges look for in the show ring.
Fit & feel
* Forward-cut flap, giving room to shorten your stirrups securely for jumping in working hunter classes.
* Flatter seat than a standard show saddle, giving a bit more room while keeping that classic showing look.
* Built to an individual tree point width and knee block specification (Black Country offers Velcro, traditional fixed, or thigh block options), so it's worth checking which configuration this particular saddle carries.
* 100% pure wool flocking, with a choice of panel styles (drop panel, K panel, trapezius panel, or none) selected at time of build, again worth confirming for this saddle specifically.
* Girthing built to a chosen billet placement (long, short, point, bar, back or swing/Y rear), tailored to the original order.
This one suits a working hunter or showing rider on a cob or other native type wanting a flatter, more forward-cut seat than a typical show saddle. If you wanted to compare a dedicated flat showing saddle from a different maker, the Fylde Symonds Ray Working Hunter is worth trialling alongside it. As ever, that's a starting point for narrowing things down rather than a fit guarantee, so we'd recommend trialling it alongside an appointment with a fitter to see how it sits on your horse.
