Pre-Order with a Two Week Turn Around. Comes with a medium gullet.
Expertly engineered specifically for dressage, this monoflap saddle has been crafted with premium German aniline leather.
Favoured by professional dressage riders & event riders, the monoflap design offers increased connection and the ability to apply micro-adjustments in the aids. Engineered for a greater connection and communication with the horse without restricting movement, this dressage saddle features a deep seat, a purpose built cantle and large padded knee rolls for exceptional security and leg positioning. The D rings at the front of the saddle allow for the attachment of your close contact saddle pad.
Covered with soft and supple German aniline leather, the Marseille truly offers a luxury riding experience. The styling of this saddle adds another textural dimension with detailing on the flap. Every little detail of this saddle has been carefully considered in the construction of this saddle for not only comfort and performance but style too.
This monoflap saddle has been crafted with a copolymer tree which is extremely lightweight and has incredible properties which allow the tree to flex so minutely that it prevents the tree from cracking under stress but provides brilliant support to the saddle.
The panels are flocked with synthetic fibre wool for comfort, support and to promote even pressure distribution.
Stainless steel safety flick stirrup bars offer a safe and easy way to attach and remove your stirrup leathers, covered by a leather skirt. The supple polished leather girth straps allow a neat and elegant finish whilst being durable and exceptionally functional.
We offer an affordable solution with a high level of anatomical expertise in the development of our innovative range of the discipline-specific saddles with customisable fitting options. For the ideal fit, we advise the purchase of the PE Gullet Gauge to provide you with a guide to the best size PE gullet for use in your Premier Equine saddle.
The PE Interchangeable Gullet System allows for quick and simple customisation of the fit of the saddle, avoiding the cost of buying a new saddle. This caters for various factors that can affect your horse's shape over time such as health, fitness, exercise regimen, age, and condition. This allows your PE saddle to change with your horse for optimum comfort.

Fitting:
Premier Equine offer a wide size range of PE Interchangeable Gullets which can help with customising the fit of your saddle to your horse's requirements. We advise the purchase of the PE Gullet Gauge to provide you with a guide to the best PE gullet for selection and use in your Premier Equine saddle.
We advise you seek the advice of a professional saddle fitter to ensure the correct fitting of your saddle.
Using your saddle for the first time:
Premier Equine have carried out all necessary treatment processes before delivering your saddle, so you can use it as soon as you receive it. However, for optimum softness and protections, we advise you to apply a good quality leather conditioning balsam and leave for 24 hours to allow for full absorption, out of direct sunlight. Buff with a soft cloth to remove any excess.
Beware of the risk of staining white clothes, especially during the first few uses.
Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. Regularly clean your saddle and apply a good quality conditioning balsam to preserve the suppleness and colour of the leather.
Store on a saddle hook/saddle stand that provides even pressure.
Day-to-Day care:
If your saddle has come into contact with water, allow it to dry naturally out of direct sunlight or heat. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather balsam and store your saddle in a dry place.
For optimum performance and longevity: apply a high-quality leather conditioning balsam at least twice a month to maintain the suppleness of the leather.
"So this is Axel, photos taken 4 weeks apart. After I lost my old SB mare I decided to look for a horse I could ‘connect’ with and work through Warwick Schiller’s relationship path. Axel and I clicked straight away, though it was clear from the start he was dealing with some ‘stuff’ emotionally. I have no agenda and no plans to ‘get out there’ with this horse, so after his big move to his new home we just hung out and allowed him to ‘let down’ - this culminated in a range of physical issues, from mud fever to dramatic weight loss and then .... his hair fell out. The photos show day one. By day three he was bald (and I was a blubbering mess!) This was right on Xmas/New Year. We brought him in and I slathered him daily in Hoof and Hair Moisturiser - one week later we had hair! The second photo is taken 4 weeks later - He’s not had another issue since. I regularly use it on his hooves, and he now loves to have it rubbed in when he’s groomed. He wasn’t abused or anything just no longer needed for racing or eventing. It’s been so interesting seeing him relax and change, he’s really adapting well to his life as a pleasure horse and for me it’s been an awakening, really getting to know a horse after 40 plus years of riding. I love your products, really great value and super quality. I also use them on my mini - the detangler is the only thing that rescues his dreadlocked mane."
