I've been doing dressage with my little mare for about a year now, and we've finally bitten the bullet and affiliated this year
I have only ever done short arena tests, have been looking at doing a long arena one and am not sure whether or not to go for it? Can anyone advise on the differences (bar the centre line and diagonal that goes on forever!) between the two, and any tips for riding a long arena test. In particular remembering all the letters!
Also, is there anything I should be doing competently before giving a long arena test a stab? We scored 68% in our last two short arena tests, and never any lower than 65%.
