Borrowed saddle for Jack

Jack has to ride at Pony Club in a GP, but he feels more secure in my stock saddle, but I don't have a surcingle, so a friend has lent me his son's for the Christmas Camp over.
  It was dry as, and dirty (didn't think to take photo of it before I cleaned it) a real small kids saddle.

  But with all the rain, that off, maybe not even the day - may be postponed.

The saddle is after cleaning, soaking in neatsfoot oil, polishing and cleaning the brass studs.  The next phot is of the same brass fittings on the surcingle, on the right is the un polished, the left is the polished.  Don't worry, in real life it shines gold - I'm just not that a professional photo expert!
