I'm thinking of buying a granada paragon saddle but a lady at my barn said they are only for gaited horses. I have a spotted draft and I was wondering if this is true? Are granada paragons only for gaited breed or can they be used on any horse?
I agree, if the saddle fits, wear it. A friend of mine had one and it was very comfortable; great for trail rides and tooling around the farm. They only come in medium tree width, though, so you want to be sure it'll fit your draft.

If the saddle fits the horse, and you aren't dictated by discipline, you can use anything you want.
HOWEVER, I've seen these saddles and they aren't a very high quality.
You would do better finding a higher quality, used saddle that fit your horse.
