Hi Joani,

I had a Bates Isabell for a while - it was great on the flat, but for me the
stirrups were too far back for riding steep downhills - it causes me to
pitch forward.  The Pro Dressage and AP 2000 work better for me (the stirrup
bars are positioned the same on those two models).  If you can borrow an
Isabell, ride down some steep hills before you buy one.  You should know
right away if the balance works for you.

Happy Trails,
Michelle
