THE FIELD, DAY ONE

The chart below visually shows the range of each pair (in draw order). The purple demonstrates the range that the pair scores in 67% of the time. The shorter the purple bar, the more consistent the pair score; a very long purple bar indicates a pair who can score all over the board. The black bar indicates the average of the latest three A/4* tests that the pair has done, giving an indication as to recent form.

The black dot with accompanying text indicates the personal best score at A/4* while a red X with text indicates the personal best scores at 5*.

Purple bar is 67% of scores, black bar is average of latest three A/4* tests. Black dot is personal best at A/4*, red dot is personal best at 5*.
