PLEASE NOTE THAT THE 4,5,6 YEAR OLD CLASS IS NOT A QUALIFIER

Each class is split into three phases:

Phase I           Dressage Test                                                                                         70 Marks

                                                                                   200 Marks Maximum

METHOD OF JUDGING:

• Horses/Ponies come into the ring individually and complete phase I – the Dressage Test - then proceed immediately into Phase II - the Jumping Phase. 

• There are no set penalties for a pole down or a run out – but three refusals will result in elimination. The jumping course should be a mixture of coloured and rustic obstacles and is designed to produce ten jumping efforts

• Each jumping effort is marked out of 10 at the Judge’s discretion

• The first fence must be a small inviting fence and may be jumped as a practice fence

• All horses, unless eliminated, are required to come back without saddles for Phase 111 - conformation assessment to  be awarded marks out of a possible 30.

• The Judge does not have to sit at any appointed place for the Dressage Test but may sit at the point they   feel most appropriate – according to the design and layout of the arena.
