The Ghost Trentino is a saddle of great charm. When we try it on Baroque or Iberian horses (Andalusians, Lusitanos, Murgese), the visual impact is splendid, but it is the biomechanical performance that makes the difference: the saddle remains short on the back, leaving the loins free, while the long flap gives the rider impeccable dressage posture. I recommend the Trentino C version to anyone seeking maximum precision in leg aids when working in the arena, thanks to the absence of double layers of leather under the thigh.

This is a handcrafted, custom-made product.
Lead time is approximately 3 weeks.

12/24 month warranty.

Description

Ghost Trentino Classic: Spanish elegance and full support

The Ghost Trentino Classic is part of the Ghost Classic line of Iberian inspiration, a family of saddles combining the freedom and close contact typical of Ghost treeless models with a more structured and "classic" leg position and positioning.

The Ghost Trentino represents the ideal synthesis between the sophisticated aesthetics of traditional Spanish/Iberian saddles and the functionality of a long-flap work saddle. Designed for riders practicing classical equitation, school dressage, or working equitation, the Trentino offers a deep seat and an extended thigh block that supports the leg along the entire upper limb.

Unlike more minimalist Iberian models (such as the Ghost Navarra), the Trentino provides a clear, continuous reference point that helps maintain an upright posture and collected position during school movements, precision flatwork, or long parade and leisure rides.

Trentino Variations: Classic, Barocco, and C-Line

The Ghost Trentino comes in three exclusive variants to meet every technical and aesthetic need:

Ghost Trentino Classic: The traditional interpretation featuring long flaps, comfortable padding, and a clean Spanish profile.
Ghost Trentino Barocco: A variant enhanced with baroque-inspired decorative stitching, details, and shaping on the cantle and flaps.
Ghost Trentino C (C-Line Single Flap): The top-of-the-line version featuring a mono-flap construction, detachable and adjustable Velcro flaps, deep C seat, and total color coordination.

The rider's position is balanced and collected, with extended flaps and pronounced blocks that help the leg remain stable without forcing it, promoting a posture ideal for general purpose use and classical-style riding.

Compared to English GP models, such as the Ghost Italy Classic, the Trentino offers a more "classic" alignment and a more wrapped feeling around the leg.

While not built as a specialized formal dressage or competition jumping saddle, the Trentino is an excellent choice for riders who alternate between arena work and trail riding, looking for true versatility, comfort, and direct contact with the horse.

Who the Ghost Trentino Is Recommended For

For the Horse:

Ideal Conformation: Iberian and baroque types, compact or round horses, short-backed breeds, or horses with significant back musculature.
Back Protection: The compact profile respects the lumbar area; adjustable panels ensure complete freedom of scapular rotation.

For the Rider:

Rider Level: Amateur and professional riders practicing classical equitation, working equitation, or dressage.
Riding Discipline: Classical riding, Iberian dressage, traditional working equitation, parade hacks, and flatwork.

Technical Comparison: Treeless Ghost Trentino vs. Traditional Spanish Saddle

Record Light Weight: Approximately 4.4 kg compared to the 10–12 kg of heavy traditional leather Spanish saddles.
Lumbar Protection: The compact back-saving footprint prevents the saddle from extending past the 18th rib, making it ideal for short-backed Andalusians or Lusitanos.
