Competition format

The team and individual dressage competitions used the same results. A test was to be carried out from memory by each rider within 17 minutes, losing half a point for every second over the time limit.[2] There were 40 individual movements in the test.[3] For each movement, each judge gave a score from 0 to 10; this score was multiplied by the movement's coefficient.[4] Each judge's score was used in a point-for-place system (that is, for each judge, the top-scoring pair received 1 point, the second-scoring pair received 2 points, and so on).[4] The points from each of the five judges were summed to give a total number of points for each pair; the lowest number of points won.[4] (The point-for-place system was used only for the individual event; the team event used raw scores.)

Judges were:[5]

  • Col. Baron Cl. v. Cederström, Sweden
  • Gen. A. Decarpentry, France
  • Lt. Col. Baron A. v. Henikstein, Austria
  • Gen. v. Poseck, Germany
  • Col. Qu. v. Ufford, Netherlands
