What kind of saddle would fit me?

I have a very long thigh, compared to my shin. Therefore I have a lot of trouble finding saddles that are able to fit me. Most recently I tried the Pessoa Legacy XP3 XCH Saddle (http://www.doversaddlery.com/product.asp?pn=X1-15674&ids=577061133) which my thigh went past the knee roll, and I also tried the Circuit Elite EQ Saddle (http://www.doversaddlery.com/product.asp?pn=X1-15454&ids=577061133) this was able to fit my thigh-length but the flap was unfortunately too long. I don't own a horse but I need one because the lesson saddles are very limited. And also what kind of tree is most popular for uses on different types of horses?

I would suggest you try a wintec 2000, or a Bates close contact. You can adjust the knee and thigh blocks to fit your leg, and you can put in a gullet to suit the horse you are riding the most.

Just like clothes for us, there is no such thing as a "one tree fits all". with the wintec and bates saddles, you have five or six different gullet sizes you can use. You can buy the kit(has all the different sized gullets and a measuring gauge), measure the horses you normally ride, and then put in a gullet that will suit most of them. To ride the others, you'll either have to change the gullet, or keep the widest gullet you normally use in the saddle, and use one of the wintec pads to help it fit(not the best option, but better than having the saddle fit really badly and hurting the horse's back).
