HORSE riders will be able to pick up some advice from an expert next week.

The Richmond Equestrian Centre will be playing host to top trials and dressage judge Sue Carson next Friday.

And during her demonstration she will be focusing on saddler and their correct fitting, and giving an over- view of the manufacturing process.

With the help of volunteers and their horses, she will also be looking at how the way the saddle fits and its design affects the rider's position and the degree of comfort for both rider and mount.

Derbyshire-based Ms Carson is an experienced trainer of riders at all levels and competes in dressage to Prix St Georges and Inter I Level.
