COMBINED TRAINING
Combined Training consist of riders competing in two disciplines – dressage and show jumping.
A competitor rides their dressage test then they do a round of show jumping. Any faults in the show jumping section are deducted from the dressage score to provide a final score. In the event of an equal placing the quicker show jumping time will decide the higher placing.
All tests are in a short arena (20×40) and are the new British Dressage Tests.
