A long time ago, I learned my lesson. It is far less expensive to 
accurately determine the saddle fit required for the horse and buy the 
proper saddle. The practice of buying a cheap saddle, then selling it 
six months later (for about half what you paid for it) adds up to real 
money very quickly not to mention the potential cost in trainers and vet 
bills. While a good quality saddle that fits may be expensive in the 
long run it usually proves to be a bargain.

And that is true for a TWH, an Arab or the special breed developed by Bo 
Diddly that boogies on down the trail.
