Amerigo Named the Official Saddle of the USEA American Eventing Championships
Amerigo Saddles, for the 6th straight year, has been named the Official Saddle of the Bit of Britain/USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC). The AEC are the national championship event for the sport of eventing. Open to amateurs, juniors and professional riders alike, the AEC give everyone the chance to compete to be named the nation's best at their respective levels.
Amerigo is proud to be the Official Saddle of the AEC and will award Amerigo Saddles to the winners of the Advanced, Intermediate, and Preliminary divisions along with awarding Vega by Amerigo Saddles to the winner of the Training, Novice, and Beginner Novice divisions.
Robin Moore, Brand Manger of Amerigo says of the awards, "We are happy to award Amerigo Saddles to the winners of this prestigious event because we know how much training and effort goes into achieving success at that level. We customize the award saddles specifically to each winning horse to help ensure the horse's continued future success and comfort with his job."
Getting to work with so many eventers of all levels is a great testimony to the fitting capabilities of Amerigo saddles. Eventing is the ultimate test of the horse, and Amerigo is committed to making sure these athletes have the saddle fit they need to be able to perform at their best. Amerigo has a multitude of custom options and the balance of the saddle puts the rider in a very secure position. The rider has a solid seat, and therefore has independent use of all the aids, so whether the rider is in the dressage arena working on the perfect half pass, galloping cross country, or looking for that last extra effort in stadium, the rider and horse are able to perform to their full potential.
