Hi all 
I'm thinking of having a go at dressage again. I've done it before but unfortunately was so nervous that i forgot my test half way through and got eliminated. So any tips of how to not be nervous as well as remembering dressage tests, i'd really like to event but if i can't get the dressage then not much point really. I do enjoy it and so does ponio i just can't remember the tests very well when under pressure.
Am i right in thinking that the eventing dressage tests are easier that the BD tests? As in comapring prelim to be90 tests? The test i need to learn is be90 95 (2012). My problem is that my arena at the yard is a big 20x60 and the test is ridden in a 20x40, so where do i put poles or something to make it a 20x40, if that makes sense?
Thank you everyone
