The Bates Victrix jump saddle is a high-performance, close-contact saddle designed to provide a seamless connection between horse and rider. It features a unique SynergyPanel, which is designed to provide a large, even bearing surface on the horse's back, and a carbon fiber tree that offers a lightweight and strong foundation. The saddle also utilizes the Bates' signature EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution, including the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System and EASY-CHANGE Riser System, allowing for complete adjustability to the horse's changing shape.
Horse Conformation and Suitability
The Bates Victrix is a very versatile saddle, but its design makes it particularly suitable for horses with a moderate to a-frame back shape and high or prominent withers.
Prominent Withers: The deep gullet and adjustability of the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System can be a significant advantage for horses with high withers, as it allows for a precise fit that avoids pressure points.
Moderate Back Shape: The flat, even surface of the SynergyPanel works well on backs that are not extremely curved or flat. It distributes the rider's weight evenly over a large area, which can be beneficial for horses with a longer loin.
Adjustability for Growth and Development: The key strength of the Bates Victrix is its adaptability. Because of the EASY-CHANGE systems, it's an excellent choice for young horses whose conformation is still developing or for horses that change shape throughout the season due to changes in fitness or weight.
