I have been through 4 saddles in 6 months with my Saddlebred and am now saddleless. Good luck in finding a new one if you decide to. I understand your frusteration with the Saddle fitting issue.

I'll guess $275. And since your a fan of drafties, feel free to take a look at my girl any time. Piccies of her are on my blog (www.greenongreen.wordpress.com). She's the cutest (though I may be somewhat biased) draft cross EVER! (She's 1/2 Clyde, 1/4 Paint, 1/4 TB, and 100% SASSY!) Oh, fun! I’ll guess $275.
