It is best for leisure riders, riding schools and busy yards who want a breathable, sweat-absorbing pad for schooling, hacking and lessons rather than a specialist competition pad.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIts anatomical shaping follows the contours of the horse's back and the line of the saddle, which helps the pad stay in position and prevents it slipping during work.
