Grade 5 | Pre-Owned | Serial No. 52983 | Saddle ID: C10068

Bench Inspection & Fitter’s Rating

At Best Horse Saddle Shop, every pre-owned saddle goes straight to our workshop before listing. Our SMS Qualified Saddlers complete a thorough 24-point bench inspection to test tree alignment, panel flocking, billet security, and overall structural safety.

• Condition Grade: Grade 5 (Average Pre-Owned Condition)

• Fitter’s Notes: Structural condition is completely sound across the SimaTree, S-Bar frame, and billet system.

• Cosmetic & Wear Details: Shows obvious signs of regular riding wear, including moderate flap wear from stirrup leathers, general seat wear, a pommel scuff, and some loose stitching at the bottom of the flaps (all clearly highlighted in the photos). The leather is well-broken-in, supple, and ready for work.

What Makes The Kent & Masters S-Series Pony Jump Special?

Designed specifically for young riders and pony conformations, the Kent & Masters S-Series Pony Jump (MPJ) delivers top-tier English leather craftsmanship and high performance in a compact 15.5″ size.

Unlike scaled-down adult saddles, the MPJ is built on a purpose-designed pony tree featuring longer, swept-back tree points. This unique design lifts weight off the shoulders, encouraging a freer, cleaner jump. For junior riders, forward-cut flaps paired with customizable Velcro knee and calf blocks give maximum leg stability and confidence over fences.

Why Our Fitters Love This Model

• Pony-Specific Tree Mechanics: Long, swept-back tree points provide extra support at the front without digging into the pony’s shoulders, allowing total freedom through the scapula.

• Tailored Leg Alignment: Movable Velcro knee and calf blocks allow young riders to position their leg support exactly where they need it as they grow.

• Adaptable Fit for Growing Ponies: Uses the easy-to-swap S-Bar gullet system alongside natural wool-flocked panels, letting your fitter fine-tune the width and balance right at your yard as the pony develops muscle.

• Girth Line Stability: Multi-option girthing straps help secure the saddle on rounder, flatter, or low-profile ponies to prevent slipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which gullet bar does this saddle take?

Because this saddle is built on a pony-specific tree, it takes the Kent & Masters S-Bar (short bar legs), adjusting from Narrow/Medium up to XX-Wide. It is currently fitted with a Medium-Wide (MW) bar.

What pony profile does this saddle fit best?

It is designed for standard or low-wither ponies and works brilliantly on low-profile or rounder builds thanks to its broad wool panels and flexible girthing options.

How do I care for pre-owned English leather?

Wipe down dirt and sweat with a damp sponge and mild leather soap after rides. Periodically feed the hide with a quality leather balsam to keep it supple and protected.
