Dual Olympic medallist Stuart Tinney tells us about the new Bates Victrix saddle
Synonymous with the best in the business, Bates has been creating top-of-the-range saddles since 1934.
Years of research, modern innovation and future tech means the Bates Victrix is the holy grail of jump saddles – offering a lusciously comfortable ride for you in soft leather, huge freedom of movement for your horse, and show(jumping) ring looks to boot. With more than ten gorgeous colour accents to choose from, in a lightweight and compact design, the Victrix gives you the ultimate in an ultra-close contact ride.
Known for its futuristic CAIR Cushion System and incredibly useful EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution, Bates places the power in the rider’s hands (or seat!).
Bates knows horses and riders change, and places the power in your hands, giving you the option to change the saddles’ gullet as your horse widens or narrows, and the seat position in the saddle to adjust the balance and clearance for you.
