Tips on Brooks saddle restoration?

I found two vintage Raleighs at a garage sale today for $20 each -- and each was equipped with its own B-72 Brooks leather saddle. They have minor cracking & weathering but appear to be solid - maybe just a bit too solid. Any tips on how to bring these back to life? I did a search here and on the web and found recommendations ranging from Neatsfoot oil to olive oil.

Anyone have specific experience in successfully restoring similar saddles?
