Why Use an Elasticated Breastplate?

A breastplate is designed to help prevent excessive backward movement of the saddle, particularly during jumping, faster work and riding over varied terrain.

The elasticated sections of the Indiana Breastplate allow some flexibility as the horse's shoulders and body move, helping provide saddle stability without creating an unnecessarily rigid connection when correctly fitted.

Important

A breastplate should be correctly adjusted so that it helps stabilise the saddle without restricting the horse's shoulders or normal movement.

A breastplate should also not be used to compensate for an incorrectly fitting saddle. If saddle movement is persistent, saddle fit should be assessed.
