It's a demi volte, like a tear-drop shape. Do your half 10m circle onto the centre line but then keep turning to face the long side you just turned off from, but head for between B and M.
 
As the others have said, at F ride a half 10m cicle which takes you to D on the centre line. Then ride a straight line to return to the track between B & M to form a tear drop - tip return to the track closer to B than M as this gives you more time to set up the bend for the corner.
 
Hi it means you start your half circle at F (coming off the track, picture a whole 10m circle at F but only do half of it) and it finishes at D (which is on the centre line), you then head back towards the track reaching it between B and M so you kind of head back in the opposite diection. If you google dressage arena's you can look at a diagram of a school which should help you picture it.

Sorry that prob doesn't help much!
