I took Intro B twice and was against 9 other riders (one junior, the rest adults). I rode Lena, a lesson horse, for both of them. Lena is the QH mare that I have been riding every other week for the past month and a half; she is super sweet, forgiving, and realllllyyyy laid back. Considering how this was my first time doing a legit dressage test and my first time at a show, I'd say it went well. I even got an eight on a movement!
First time around:
+Diagonals correct
+Circles round
+Straight
-Lacking energy
67% total and I got 6.5-8 on each movement
4th place overall.
Second time around:
+Diagonals correct
+Circles round
+Straight
-Lacking energy
-Went down the center line crooked in the end
66% total and I got 6-7.5 on each movement
5th place overall.
Here are some screenshots from a video.
