There is plenty of space, however, for the bigger saddles if needed and the saddlecloth can be seen below the flaps of my saddle also, which I really love. With a colour so stunning you want it to be seen! There is really good, structured spine clearance also, which helps to reduce pressure points and rubbing from the saddlecloth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#e0b57c\">How did you test the product?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;With only just buying my dressage saddle, this is the only dressage cut saddlecloth I own. I rode in it every day in the weeks running up to my dressage competition, very rarely needing washing.\u00a0 It was so breathable my horse didn&#8217;t sweat as much as he does in my other saddlecloths.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#e0b57c\">What was your favourite feature?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;My favourite cosmetic feature is the beautiful contrast binding around the outside of the saddlecloth with the brown &#8220;Kentucky&#8221; patch. But my favourite functional feature has to be the structured spine clearance. It gives me piece of mind that my horse is as comfortable as he possibly could be with no pressure points.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color wp-block-heading\" style=\"color:#e0b57c\">Any other comments?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;This isn&#8217;t my first Kentucky saddlecloth, and it certainly won&#8217;t be my last! The quality and value for money is second to none and I now want this saddlecloth in all the colours in the different shapes too! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6513\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/?attachment_id=6513\" class=\"wp-image-6513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6-370x370.jpg 370w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/6.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6514\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/?attachment_id=6514\" class=\"wp-image-6514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7-370x370.jpg 370w, https:\/\/blog.citrus-lime.com\/redp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2023\/10\/7.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n<div style=\"gap: 20px;\" class=\"align-button-center ub-buttons orientation-button-row ub-flex-wrap wp-block-ub-button\" id=\"ub-button-f0af2a53-8263-4bdd-bf79-f3d9537ea0cd\"><div class=\"ub-button-container\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.redpostequestrian.co.uk\/saddlery-tack\/numnahs-saddlecloths\/kentucky-velvet-dressage-saddlecloth--emerald__211060\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" class=\"ub-button-block-main   ub-button-flex\" role=\"button\" style=\"--ub-button-background-color: #3b3b3b;
