N25/N36 - can anyone help?

[SpottedCat]

Ok so the situation is this:

Friend needs to decide this afternoon if she wants her entry from a full prelim class transferred to either N25 or N36 class. The horse has only been out competing for 6 months and hasn't done a novice test yet. Neither of us have our test books at work.

Can anyone give me a brief over-view of what is in each test please so she can decide?

Thank you!

No, that is brill, and I am guessing LEC and I will see you at LC for the Badminton Dressage Comp then?!

(Friend doing prelim is not LEC btw but another friend!)

Thanks Ship - there is no way she will want to do that, and in fact I am now wishing I had read the test before I entered as that is HARD!

Yes you certainly will, which classes are you doing? Im doing the prelim and Novice 25

Both the Novice classes - should have read N36 before I entered as we will look far from polished in it and I now fully expect to come last!
