Results
The class winners will be the competitor with the lowest number of penalties. In the event of a tie, the winner will be the one who completes the cross country section in the shortest time.
Team Winners will be decided by adding all 4 team members penalties together, if there is a tie, all times will be added together, and the quickest team will be placed higher. If a team member is eliminated, they will receive 20 points more than the last placed competitor in the class.
Please remember that for safety arena eventing is about jumping clear in a forward rhythm and not galloping flat out!!!
