Her long list of accomplishments proves she is a true Champion,” said Mark Jemelka, chief operating officer of Circle Y Saddles. Western Dressage is a new discipline for our Brand, and Pam was a natural choice to help us introduce it to our line. “We are proud to add Pam to our ever growing Team of Champions. You cannot sit incorrectly in this saddle,” said Pam Grace. It takes balance, freedom of movement and comfort to new heights. “This saddle is cutting edge-a fabulous one of a kind design which is unparalleled. The beautiful "shimmer suede" seat and skirt inlays and crystal mosaic conchos add a unique, showy flair.

The skirt design also has the XPG™ Gel bar pad between the tree bars and the skirt liner to absorb shock and improve fit and comfort for the horse. For the horse, a Neo-Shock™ skirt absorbs shock and conforms to the horse, and the suede skirt liner provides grip for a no-slip fit.

ErgoBalance™ stirrups position the rider's feet and legs to minimize joint fatigue and promote balanced riding. For the rider's comfort, the Impact Foam™ padded seat provides a comfortable cushion and the Softee® seat jockeys and fenders require no break-in time. The saddle has a dropped in-skirt rigging and close contact skirt to minimize bulk under the rider's leg and allow the horse and rider close contact for precise cueing. The rough out seat jockeys and fenders and rubber grip tread of the stirrups also help the rider keep a secure seat. The strategically placed thigh blocks, seat design, and stirrup leather position allow the rider to maintain perfect dressage position and alignment.

The saddle is lightweight with several performance and comfort features for both horse and rider. A Flex2® tree allows freedom of movement for the horse, an important factor in performing precise dressage maneuvers. Recognizing the need for a specialized saddle in the Western dressage discipline, Grace collaborated with Circle Y to design her new 1850 “The Dance” Western dressage saddle.
