Dressage is probably the biggest challenge that drivers face. It is the hardest discipline for combined driving. But once you master that the rest is easy. In driving, I feel that there are many people in the sport for the fun of the marathon. I would have been included on that until I started to learn more and more about dressage and how important it is for all the other phases of combined driving. If you can somewhat master the dressage, marathon and cones are easy to tackle.
