Note from BALANCE. The saddle looks in the photos rather narrow for an 8x Zenith, but we have had confirmation from the seller that the tree is still in its original 8x width. However, the saddle panels look to be more filled/flocked than is standard with a BALANCE saddle, which means that it is likely to behave more like a 7x width. The panels are also likely to be firmer than is standard with a BALANCE Saddle. If your horse needs a full 8x width, this may be too narrow. However, flocking can always be removed/reduced, and if you are taking a horse through a remedial process, where it has muscle wastage/underdevelopment in the JB area, at the moment, but is likely to recover to needing an 8x width, this could work well, because the flocking can be removed/reduced to reveal the full 8x width, as the horse's width increases.
