GFS Monarch Pony GP Saddle | Adjustable General Purpose Saddle for Ponies and Young Riders
Helping Young Riders Develop with Confidence
The GFS Monarch Pony GP Saddle has been specifically designed to provide young riders with the confidence, comfort and security they need as they develop their riding skills. Combining advanced saddle technology with a versatile fit for a wide variety of ponies, it is the ideal general-purpose pony saddle for Pony Club, riding school, hacking, flatwork and jumping.
The Monarch Pony GP features a deep, supportive seat that encourages young riders to sit correctly in the saddle, promoting a balanced and secure riding position. By helping children maintain good posture and develop an independent seat, the saddle assists riders in establishing correct riding habits from the very beginning of their equestrian journey.
Designed to Fit a Wide Range of Pony Shapes
Finding a saddle that fits a growing pony can be challenging. The GFS Monarch Pony GP Saddle has been engineered to adapt as ponies change shape throughout the seasons.
The innovative GFS X-Change Gullet System allows the saddle to be professionally adjusted using interchangeable gullet plates, making it suitable for a wide variety of pony conformations, including:
-
Welsh Mountain and Welsh Section A, B, C and D ponies.
-
Connemara Ponies.
-
New Forest Ponies.
-
Dartmoor and Exmoor Ponies.
-
Highland Ponies.
-
Fell and Dale's Ponies.
-
Native and traditional cobs.
-
Riding school ponies.
-
Young ponies are developing through work.
Supplied with an XXW (White) gullet plate as standard, the saddle accepts gullet plates ranging from Narrow through to XXXX Wide, allowing it to adapt as your pony develops muscle, gains condition or changes shape throughout the year.
Built for Pony Comfort
The Monarch Pony GP is constructed around a lightweight polymer synthetic saddle tree, providing strength, durability and flexibility without unnecessary weight.
A carefully designed front gusset enables further fitting adjustments to improve panel contact and weight distribution, reducing pressure points and allowing greater freedom through the pony's shoulders and back.
The result is a saddle that promotes comfort, encourages unrestricted movement and supports long-term back health when professionally fitted.
Designed Around the Rider
Young riders benefit from a saddle that provides support without restricting movement. The Monarch Pony GP includes several innovative features that can be tailored to each rider as they grow and gain confidence.
The GFS Flexi Block System allows the knee blocks to be adjusted, repositioned or completely removed, enabling riders and saddle fitters to create the ideal leg position for different ages, disciplines and levels of experience.
The X-Change Girthing System incorporates multiple removable girth strap options, allowing the saddle to remain balanced and stable on a variety of pony shapes while helping minimise saddle movement during ridden work.
Together, these features encourage a secure lower leg, improved balance and greater confidence in the saddle.
