You may activate a permanent’s saddle ability even if that permanent is already saddled.

“Saddle N” means “Tap any number of other untapped creatures you control with total power N or greater: This permanent becomes saddled until end of turn. Activate only as a sorcery.”
2025-02-07
If a permanent becomes a copy of a saddled Mount, the copy won’t be saddled.
