This message is from: Robin Churchill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I was going to start the bid on Ebay at $925 including the gullet set which new costs about $100. The saddle has some wear as it is about 4 years old and went with both Ooruk and Ulyssa when they went for training but overall is in pretty good shape. I had the CAIR panels replaced with wool panels because the CAIR panels are really just foam and more than one saddler told me they could cause some back problems. I can send you pictures if you would like. It really does fit a lot of horses but I prefer a narrower twist. I am riding Ooruk in a Barnby and had my Passier adjusted for Ulyssa. I may get a new saddle for Ooruk then give the Barnsby to Ulyssa and sell the Passier because even though it is the newest model, I don't love it. They are doing well. I took them yesterday about an hour away for saddle-fitting. Ulyssa is a firecracker--very mareish when it comes to other horses. She loves Ooruk but she will literally attack certain other geldings. She is coming along fairly well under saddle.
