Dressage is not about putting horses in clothing, even though that sounds like it would be a great idea. Nothing too restrictive that will make the horse upset. Maybe a nice sundress, some linen culottes. Whatever.
To be a successful competitor in the horse-based sport of dressage, both rider and equestrian must perform a series of memorized tasks involving different types of trots, gallops, and canter. Together, this fancy footwork makes up the ride.
Winning
The ride is rated on the following scale:
10 – Excellent
9 – Very good
8 – Good
7 – Fairly good
6 – Satisfactory
5 – Marginal
4 – Insufficient
3 – Fairly Bad
2 – Bad
1 – Very bad
0 – Not executed
It is the opinion of Staff that all horses are 10 Excellent. All horses should win.
