“The rider must listen into the horse, in order to judge when the moment for an aid has come, which aid is needed and how intense it must be. He must know how to create or wait for the right circumstances, to prepare the horse.”

I’m looking for an eventing or deep-seated jumping saddle. Preferably leather, new or used, 17-17.5” seat and a M/MW tree. Something I can jump, hack, and do flatwork in comfortably (I don’t show). Priced under $3000. Any suggestions?
