I grew up on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, and was lucky enough to spend my weekends and school holidays riding at Smoky Dawson's Ranch and Heath Harris's Bloodwood Park. In those early years I rode some great little ponies all through the bush, swimming them in water holes and going on picnics with them.

As an adult, I headed for the country, still hopelessly addicted to horses. Over the years I completed Horse Management and Equine Nursing courses, and did a stint at trackwork riding (love the speed, but not the busters). I also spent a few years working on thoroughbred studs and doing foal watch.

I was always made to feel like a valued and welcome customer.

That brings me to today, a bit longer in the tooth, but just as lucky. I am now working in the beautiful Upper Hunter at Ellerston where I look after and ride eight or so trail horses. Most of my day is spent riding. From schooling horses to riding up and down fairly steep country, crossing rivers, to just poking along quietly.

Without a doubt, my Equaliser Southern Drafter Slimline saddle caters to all my needs. I find it very comfortable, as do all my varied horses. I also feel very secure in it without feeling restricted, and I really don't think you could kill it with a stick. As for the service provided by the team at Kent Saddlery, you couldn't ask for better. Right from when I first ordered my saddle through to the finished product, I was always made to feel like a valued and welcome customer.

Thank you, to all the staff at Kent Saddlery, you really are doing a great job!!!

I was selling my third saddle, still seeking the impossible - a perfect fit for both Brumby and myself. His shoulders were locked, and the saddle slid around - I was in despair. Then by chance, I met Lyle and Helen.

Lyle measured us up and carefully talked through my requirements. Then he made me a small light saddle that fits like a glove. When I received it, ahead of schedule, the stirrups were on the right holes and the fenders had been pre-turned for my dodgy knees. I feel more balanced on my horse and can sit any disturbance with ease. Brumby's white patches have eased, his action is freed up and he has started to shine. This month we cut 3.5 seconds off our Barrels time!

Thank you to the whole Kent Saddlery Family. You really go the extra mile!

Brumby, & Deb wearing one of her more 'conservative' outfits! She is an avid collector of imaginative jeans and shirts sourced primarily from the US of A.

It's more that just

a saddle,

it's a flaming Miracle!

Kent Saddlery comments:
In 2007 we met Deborah at a market in Broome where she was selling, among other things, Judy Rosser art products - which Helen loves.

This friendly, enthusiastic lady quickly discovered our reason for being in the area, and we were easily convinced to come and spend time at the rodeo grounds, meeting some members of the Broome Horse Riding Club.

Spend a few minutes with Deb and you come away smiling. She's an inspiration, ready to encourage others, and positive in all she says and does.

Thank you for the new saddle! Your DVD was very helpful when I was deciding which saddle to get. The saddle is well made and comfortable. I use it mostly for trail rides. The saddle gives me excellent support when my Quarter Horse “Mazey” reacts suddenly, to sounds of wallabies or birds making a noise in the bush. It took me a while to get used to the swinging fenders, now I think they are great. Keep up the good work.

I was born in Finland and I started riding when I was 11 years old. In 1994 I moved to Darwin. In 2005 I was given my very own horse, Shadow. I went for bush rides with her until she retired in 2007. My husband then gave me a beautiful Quarter Horse, Mazey. I'm now learning western riding.
