Abstract: A saddle rack assembly has a slide mechanism mounted to a support structure and capable of horizontal movement between an extended position and a retracted position. The slide mechanism has a cantilevered rail mounted to the support structure and a sleeve that rides on the support structure. A saddle rack is mounted to the sleeve to provide a contoured support for the saddle. A latch mechanism is attached to the sleeve to selectively secure the sleeve in either the extended position and the retracted position.
