Dressage Bods - Few Questions, a BD report & some random pictures!

[SAMgirl]

Hi All,
I lurk in here... lots (i.e. when supposed to be working, revising or something else of importance) lol. Thought I would join in for a change! Well...
Charlie - Went out last Wednesday, and OMG half qualified for the novice winters - I couldn't believe it - so pleased! And did our first elementary and got 65%

so have half qualified for the AFs at that level.
My question is this:
Can you qualify for the Winters at Novice and also do the AF at Novice? Or can I just do the Elem at the AF's and the Novice at the Winters.
This is charlie in his normal & preferred state (that is asleep, not dead btw)

:

Jeff - So pleased with the baby JeffaCake recently - starting to take him out - first proper test on Sat

(it is unaff Prelim), but am aiming to qualify him for the AF's at Myerscough in Oct.
My question is this:
For the prelim AF obviously you need 2 sheets with 62% but he can do this unregistered does he need to be registered BD to do the AF, or only if you get to the final - which in all honesty is not very likely

Jeff the other day, he is soo cool!

Any help is greatly appreciated, and I know I could read the rulebook, but that would be too much effort on my part and rather like hard work

Well done!!

*I think*

You cant do the Winter Regionals and AF in the subsequent summer, at the same level.

So you could do the AF this summer @ Novice and then the Winter Regioanls in Jan/Feb 2009.

I think he can Q unreg but then needs to be registered for the AF

I'd link you to the rules page, but the BD website isn't working

Usr this link for the BD rules on AF/Regionals. You will both have to be registered to compete at both PetPlan & Regionals, but there are rulings on what you can do. Its all complicated so thought easier to post the link (rule 143 I think) and you can have a read yourself.

Having just read the rule book - it says you can do the AF at Prelim without being registered, but you have to be registered for the final.
