What is the difference between a hunt saddle and a dressage saddle?
There's no such thing as a show saddle, unless you mean a saddle you use exclusively for shows. A dressage saddle has a very deep seat to help the rider sit and a long, straight saddle flap to accommodate the longer leg position. The girth straps are also quite long so that the short dressage girth does not hinder the leg laying flat. Typically the saddles used in hunter/jumper shows are of medium depth with a more forward cut flap.
