Okayyy so I went to Dover saddlery today and I was trying out saddles because the one I have for Moby doesnt fit either of us greatly.. I told the lady that i didn't REALLY want to spend more than $2,000 on a saddle. I was trying the circiuts..yuck (thats what i have now), trying the pessoas..same old same old, time to try a new brand (I've had 3 pessoas in the past. Earlier I had been downstairs adoring the Tad Coffin (although I don't like riding in them, they sure are nice to look at). My mom told me to try out a more expensive saddle and she'd pay the difference as long as it was under $1,000 difference, meaning I could spend $3,000 on a saddle =D. Okayy so I bought the Vega..I brought it to the barn to try on Moby and it fit him perfectly, but the flap was too short for me once I was on =( They only make one flap size..so im kinda dissapointed.
Long story short, do you guys know of any saddles that fit similarly to the Vega? I'd have to do a alot of saving to be able to go the custom route and I'm not sure I want to be stuck with my current saddle for that long. Thanks if you read it all.

Elise has the Stamford and I love that saddle too. THe only bad thing is that Beval is the only brand that carries that color, so you have to buy all your matching tack with them (except I think she has Bates leathers).
