Low to medium withers - The U Head tree design accommodates horses with less prominent withers
Flat to curved back shapes - Ideal for well-muscled horses where the muscle is built up on either side of the spine
Warmblood and cob-type horses - Particularly suitable for these breeds' typical conformation
