YES the Intermediate class will be at the Finals. As for poor P&P score - USE THE ARENA, it is rectangle NOT OVAL. USE THE CORNERS, circles are ROUND not egg shaped and get them the right size. There is 8.3 metres between the markers, the arena is 20m wide so a 15m circle at A & C will be 2.5m away from the sides, 5m away from E & B . It is not rocket science to get your accuracy right. Walk the arena, get the markers sorted in your mind, maybe a wall support will be just at the point of the size you want. Every movement that is not accurate you will loose marks, get this right and you will get a better score. | ||

Lets hope Tara that they do run an Intermediate class at the finals, i personally would not have been keen to go from Novice to Open i don't think there is any event like the final that you could practice at, the new Dressage test, cones outside and the larger decorated obstacles, with little time to learn them and lots of people marching round. A great fun weekend which ultimately is about taking part, but speaking personally my dressage is not good enough to get me amoungst the outstanding dressage scores. Then 10-20 points behind even if lucky/ skillful enough to get a double clear cones it is a big ask for the pony and the little grey cells to catch up. But competitors at the finals must remember they are the qualifiers from there area and so well done, where ever we come. | ||
