I looked at some riders in western tack in some magazines, and it looks like 
the d-rings are typically lower on western saddles.  Maybe that explains why 
it fit differently on the BMSS.  That looks slightly snug to me, so the 
first thought might be to put longer straps to connect it to the saddle 
d-rings.  But, if you wanted to add the over-the-withers strap, I think the 
strap might be too high on his neck, based on where those rings fall?  Solon 
is a fairly large Icelandic, right?  Maybe a western breast collar might be 
converted for a smaller Icelandic, but now i wonder if it's feasible for the 
larger ones.

>>>I may just have to order the sensation breast collar.

I'll send a picture of Melnir's in a minute.
