Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I introduce the Back On Track All Purpose Saddle Pad No 1 to my horse?

Ease into it. Use the pad for about 4 hours a day for the first 2–3 days so your horse can adjust before moving to full-time use during rides.

Q: Is this pad suitable for jumping?

Yes. The all-purpose, forward-cut shape works well with the flap angles of jumping and general-purpose saddles.

Q: Will this pad work under any English saddle?

It's built with a high-wither clearance and a general-purpose shape, so it suits most all-purpose and jumping saddles. If your saddle has an unusually forward or straight-cut flap, check the fit before your first full ride.
