format
The results achieved in this individual competition were also counted as results for the team competition. A dressage task should be completed by each athlete within 17 minutes, with half a point deducted for each second over the time limit. There were 40 different movements during one round. For each movement, each of the five judges gave a score from 0 to 10. This score was multiplied by the movement coefficient. Each judge's score was applied on a point-by-place system . This means that the rider with the highest number of points received 1 point from each referee, the rider with the second-highest number of points received 2 points, etc. These points from each of the five judges were totaled and resulted in the total number of points. The athlete with the fewest points was the winner. This system was only used in the individual, in the team competition the points awarded by the judges counted.
The judges were:
-
Colonel Baron Claus von Cederström
-
General Albert-Eugène-Édouard Decarpentry
-
Lieutenant Colonel Alfred von Henikstein
-
General Maximilian von Poseck
-
Colonel Quarles van Ufford
