Back On Track Mathilda All Purpose (A/P) Therapeutic Saddle Pad - Full

A Lightweight Way to Keep Your Horse Supple

Give your horse a comfortable start to every ride with the Back On Track Mathilda A/P Saddle Pad. Welltex comfort technology in the lining reflects your horse's own body heat as far-infrared energy, helping muscles feel loose and ready to work throughout your ride.

The Mathilda stands out with a streamlined, lightweight profile. Where other Welltex pads can feel bulky under the leg, this one is built specifically for daily schooling and warm-weather sessions — a comfortable horse makes a more willing partner, and that's exactly what this pad is designed to deliver.

Why Riders Choose the Mathilda Pad

• Welltex comfort technology — Ceramic-infused lining reflects body heat as far-infrared warmth, supporting suppleness through your ride.
• Lightweight schooling design — Thinner and more breathable than the "Nights" or "Royal" models, ideal for summer riding and high-intensity training.
• Contoured wither relief — A high-cut wither design keeps the pad tucked in the gullet, off the spine.
• Secure all-purpose fit — Sized as a "Full" (23" spine x 18" drop) for standard 17"–18" all-purpose and jumping saddles.
• Durable construction — Quality stitching and materials stand up to daily barn life and frequent washing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I care for my Back On Track Mathilda A/P Saddle Pad?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and hang to dry. Skip the bleach, fabric softener, and tumble dryer to protect the Welltex technology.

Q: Can I use this pad every day?

Yes, it's built for daily schooling. We recommend introducing it gradually so your horse can adjust, but once acclimated it's great for everyday use.

Q: Does this pad add extra cushioning?

The Mathilda is a thin, lightweight pad focused on comfort rather than thick padding. Layer it with a half-pad if your horse needs more impact protection.
