Hunt seat saddles are designed to enable the rider to maintain a more forward body position, which is required when jumping.  Although some hunt seat saddles have knee rolls, this saddle is more of a close contact style.  The seat is flatter and shallower than a dressage saddle, making it easier for the rider to achieve a forward seat, half-seat, and jumping (two-point) position.
