I have my dressage exam coming up. One little problem is that I have a test for a 40m x 20 m arena when in fact its 60m x 20m.

OK not a problem you all say, but for: enter at A, half 20m circle at C to the left changing diagnol at X, 20m circle to the right rechanging diaganol at X, half 20m circle finishing at C. Think that makes sense off the top of my head. Basically making a figure 8.

Problem is that its bigger than a 20m circle between A x and C x. My instructor said to carry on but just make the circle bigger, but I feel it doesn't look like a circle anymore.

Any tips to make the circle bigger like this? Also having to do it on the opposite diagnol. Ie. right diagnol for the left circle!!!!!

Thanks
