DRESSAGE WRITERS
With the onset of our BD Dressage and Combined Training and running 2 arenas concurrently we are trying to get a pool of dressage writers together, whether you compete, have an interest in dressage or just at a loose end we would appreciate your help.
From a competitors perspective, dressage writing can be so educational and a real eye opener as to what the judge can see and what they are looking for during there test and is sure to gain you better marks. As a mark of our appreciation we will issue vouchers up to the value of £25 to be used against arena hire or competitions at Petley, you will also be fed and watered all day !!
All of our Dressage is judged by BD listed judges and normally runs on a Thursday or at a weekend, so if you have a few hours to spare and feel you can help please contact us by email to ian@ibequestrianservices.co.uk

BD Dressage and Unaffiliated Dressage
We are running many of our Unaffiliated Dressage alongside BD classes this year, although the uptake for BD has not been that inspiring up till now. You will notice that for these competitions you will be allocated a bridle no with your start times, this is compulsory whilst running competitions together. Please could you please bring your bridle numbers along to future competitions and we are hoping that the tack shop that attends most of our shows will have them available to purchase.
