Saddle type? Like a 'U' shape? As in it would fit a solid axle nicely? I have the same type. The first time I jacked the car up I did it on the center jack point, slid the stand under the front jack point and then proceeded to jack up the other side when crash....you guessed it, the saddle type stand slipped off the jack point. Dented the sheet metal around the jack point but that's about it. Had my heart in my throat for a few moments though. Got rid of the saddle type stands in favor of the puck (or saucer) type that seem to fit the jack points better.
If you do use the saddle type stands be VERY careful.
