Multi-Discipline (MD) Schooling Show and Combined Test

Welcome to Fairhaven Farm!  We are attempting to offer affordably priced, safe showing, to meet the needs of lower level riders/horses of all disciplines as well as dressage riders and eventers in the area.  In order to continue the shows, be safe and keep costs down, we need your help.  Please review and plan to follow the listed guidelines.

 

Show Guidelines 

*Please leave your non-horsy pets at home.  

*Please do not bring visiting horses to the barn area.

*Juniors must wear ASTM approved Helmets when mounted.

*Please park single file on the designated areas so we don’t have to buy a bunch of parking gravel.   

*Please tie to your trailer and clean up before you leave.  

*Wash your horse before you come and rinse after you get home, or we will have a mud hole by the water troughs.  

*Parents please supervise your children to help prevent accidents.  

*Please be prepared to show current negative coggins at the entrance.

 Thanks!

Multi-Discipline (MD) Schooling Show

and Combined Test  

JUNE 20th,  August 8,  August 29  

Shows start at 9am.  See website for assigned dressage ride times.

Ribbons awarded 1st-6th. Division Champions awarded digital camera.  

**  Dressage Tests are patterns set by the USDF and the USEA and ridden in a 20 x 40 meter dressage arena.  Dressage “only” tests  which are not part of a combined test may be ridden from memory or called. 

**Combined tests are a combination of a dressage ride and a jumping round per the rules stated by the United states Eventing association.  Except for Maiden and Ameoba, dressage tests must be ridden from memory.  scores are converted into penalty points and averaged together.  The rider with the lowest average  wins.  

**Jumping tests: Jumping tests will be conducted after each corresponding Combined test (2’3 will be after tadpole, 2’6 after beginner novice, etc).  Horses’ jumping “style  and form” are not judged.  Just time and penalties.  Refusals and rails are each 4 penalties .  Scoring standards:  Fastest clean round wins.  If no clean rounds, the fastest round with the fewest penalties wins.     

** Equitation classes are those where the riders’ position is judged, not the horses’ way of going.  Basic equitation is the same regardless of discipline, with only slight variations.  Ex: There should be a straight line from the riders’ ear, thru the shoulder, hip, to the heel.  There should be a straight line from the riders elbow to the horses’ mouth.  Horses with a higher head carriage will require a higher hand position to maintain a straight line than those with a lower head carriage.   

** Multi-discipline (MD) classes are open to riders of all disciplines (discipline evidenced by tack and show attire).  Unless class is qualified as an Equitation class, the Horse will be judged according to the standards of that discipline.     

**A green horse is one with limited experience(s) and/or limited time under saddle. The green horse classes evaluate the horses’ way of going and training, per the desired goals of the riders’ discipline. The riders’ position is not judged except where the rider’s position affects the horse’s performance or, a task is not executed. Over-all mental relaxation without being sluggish and accurate transitions without abruptness will be rewarded.
