Sprung & Padded Saddle with Long Rails All the Way to the Nose?

I need to set my saddle back about 2 inches so my knees will go over the pedals properly.

My current comfort saddle has less than an inch available on the rails:

So I'm wondering if a sprung/padded saddle exists that has rails that go close to the nose like some racing saddles do?

As to your suggestion of a seatpost with setback, I already have a 20mm setback, and my extensive research has turned up none currently made (other than some dangerously cheap BMX seatposts) that have the 50mm+ setback I would need.

As to your suggestion of a Brooks saddle, it's not padded, and has notoriously short rails.
