CEFN DISTRICT

Dressage Test Riding Day with Tess Chew on Wednesday April 4th cost is £10 to be held at Ty Mawr.

For those of you who are not sure what a Test Ride is here is a brief description.

You will be allowed 15min to warm up before the test and then do your test in front of Tess (caller allowed). Tess will score the test and then give you a short lesson on how to improve your test and then you will do your test a second time. Hopefully 2nd test has a better score.

The tests you can choose from are on the main PC website and are as follows:

  • D level test,
  • Introductory Test 2007
  • Novice Test 2009
  • Intermediate Test 2009
  • Open Test 2008

Your horse does not need to be plaited for this and you can wear PC sweatshirt rather than tweed jacket. Whips are allowed but remember snaffle bits and no martingale.

When you book in please inform me which test you are doing. Jane Grindal at grindalfarmer@btinternet.com
