Schooling whip at prelim?

[nicnag]

Can anyone tell me whether it is permissable to carry a schooling whip at prelim? we have been having major discussions since our last dressage whether this is allowed or not! Also are spurs allowed?

 

[Bananaman]

Yes and yes!

 

[nicnag]

Thanks that is what I thought but it was a cause of great argument between us all !

 

[josie_s]

Yes, you can use both unless the test is being used as part of a ODE in which case whips are not allowed

Spurs only at a championship though.
