British Dressage have announced changes to the tests used in affiliated competitions. With effect from 1st January 2010, there will be four new tests and three existing tests will be withdrawn.

New tests

• Novice 24 (2010) short arena (number being re-used)
• Novice 39 (2010) long arena (number being re-used)
• Elementary 40 (2010) long arena
• Elementary 45 (2010) long arena

Tests being withdrawn

• Novice 25 (2005)
• Novice 26 (2006)
• Elementary 48 (2007)

It is very important to note that (for the first time as far as I know) British Dressage has had to re-use test numbers. Novice 24 and Novice 39 were published in 2002 and withdrawn some time ago. So be careful that you have the correct version.
