  • Following the unprecedented success of the Fairfax Gareth Dressage Monoflap saddle, we started to receive repeated requests for a more ‘feminine’ version. So we asked renowned producer of young dressage horses and equestrian style icon Rebecca Hughes to add some luxurious design touches.
  • Olympic medallist Spencer Wilton has been working with Fairfax for more than two years to refine and perfect this model that is stamped with his personal touch.  It features a new tree design that offers a roomier seat, plus a unique concealed, moveable knee block. The Spencer Monoflap benefits from all the features common to every saddle in the Performance range (see design details below), plus the following performance-enhancing details:
    • The seat is more ‘forward’ in order to precisely align the rider more ‘in’ over the horse’s centre of balance.
    • A unique knee block is hidden in the monoflap design. The position can be adjusted to give the rider incredible flexibility of support. (See Concealed Block below).
    • The 17½" and 18" saddles come with a choice of two block sizes. This choice, combined with the adjustable position, gives the rider even more flexible support options. (See Concealed Block below).
    • The seat is wider and more ‘open’ than the Gareth model. This will suit riders who prefer more room in the seat, or those who like a more relaxed dressage position.
    • The design and placement of the billets gives the saddle fitter two adjustment options to fine-tune the fit to the horse’s shape and movement.
    • Contrast stitching on the flaps and skirt.
      This saddle was designed and tested using pressure mapping and gait analysis.

  • We developed this saddle with 2014 WEG team silver medallist Gareth Hughes who wanted a saddle that allowed him to feel a greater connection with his horse without restricting the ability to give the subtlest aids or make minute adjustments.  
  • Dual-flap jump saddle which allows the horse greater freedom of movement and therefore increased clearance over the fence. The slim-line design improves the rider’s sense of connectivity with their horse, aiding unity and a closer leg contact.
  • Developed with multi Olympian Andrew Hoy to align the rider precisely over the horse’s centre of balance, giving a feel of a greater harmony enabling them both to perform at their best.
  • The Fairfax Cara benefits from all the features common to every saddle in the Performance range.
  • Especially for the petite or young show jumper, this traditional two-flap is available in size16" and 16½" only and is the perfect choice for competitive children, teenagers or small adults.
  • Especially for the petite or young competitive rider, this traditional two-flap with a moveable knee block is available in size 16½ only.
  • A traditional two-flap dressage for the rider who appreciates a little more 'space' in the seat. The moveable knee block allows you to customise the support and room your leg needs.
