The Wintec HART 500 WIDE general purpose saddle is designed for draught horses and horses with a broad back. The soft seat gives you close contact with your horse, stability and a comfortable leg position for subtle aids. So you can ride relaxed in the indoor school, in the arena and out on hacks.
It comes fitted with a lilac wide gullet plate in gullet width 36. With the EASY-CHANGE gullet system you swap it whenever your horse's musculature changes. Use the WINTEC gullet measuring tool to find the right gullet plate. Important: only wide gullet plates (light lilac to purple) may be fitted to this wide saddle.
