If you’re going to ask 5 figures and above for your horse, you should really make the extra effort to take good quality photos that aren’t super dark or blurry because your horse definitely doesn’t look worth 20k when you stand them improperly for a confo shot and it’s so dark that you can barely see them

WHAT. THE. FUCK.
Oh dear…
Just hope this guy’s airways go straight from his nostrils through his chin to his neck, cos otherwise, ouch
That old guy in the background has an eyepatch, the rider might be a woman, they have a hair-bun(please god don’t try and argue about gender stuff so stfu), and they aren’t even sitting on the saddle
What even
You know I was concerned with the horse’s neck, not judging people on arbitrary shit so maybe shut up??? Like I honestly don’t get your point here.
Also most saddle seat riders in my area wear buns when showing
Curious question because I don’t know a lot about saddle seat and I don’t want to start a huge debate: what are on the horse’s feet? Like they look like shoes but they are also so much thicker that they look like pads. Also, is that the correct way of looking for saddle seat? Saddle seat of tumblr please educate us on your ways as I’ve only been to a saddle seat barn once and I’m genuinely curious
I ride Arabians, not saddlebreds so there are a few differences but saddleseat in both breeds is pretty similar... Those are shoes with pads, but they have some weight to them to get the horse to lift there legs more, although they already have a very high step... Most classes have a weight limit to the shoes though (I'm pretty sure there is a chart floating around tumblr somewhere)... As for the riders position, we sit back further to allow more movement of the horses shoulder, which is also the purpose of the cutback saddle. This rider does seems to be sitting back father and her legs are way out in front of her compared to normal (which is a typical practice of saddleseat trainers), but this could be due to her horses exaggerated movement.
I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff, but I hope this help.

Putting some feelers out about selling my 17.5" Equipe close contact saddle. Beautiful saddle, calf skin seat and knee rolls, grain leather flaps. Medium tree. Would consider a partial trade for a cheaper saddle 17 or 17.5" with medium tree provided it fits my horse. Otherwise asking $2,000. Only considering selling so I could use the money to buy a car, love this saddle. It looks brand new, no blemishes.
I wish 😍😭😭
