What is the total points deducted by Pierce for under spinning 1/8 of a turn and jogging beyond two strides?

To determine the total points deducted for under spinning and jogging beyond the allowed number of strides, it is necessary to understand the scoring criteria in equine performance events, particularly for maneuvers such as spins and transitions.

When a horse under spins, meaning it did not complete the requisite turn, this typically incurs a penalty of one point for each 1/8 of a turn that is missing. In this instance, if the horse is under spinning by 1/8 of a turn, this results in a deduction of 1 point.

Additionally, when a horse jogs beyond the allowed two strides after a stop or transition, this too results in penalties. Generally, jogging beyond the maximum allowed strides incurs a deduction of 1 point for each stride over the limit. If the horse jogs beyond those two strides—let's say it jogged for three additional strides—this would again warrant a 1 point deduction for each stride over the limit, resulting in an additional deduction of 1 point for overstepping the two-stride allowance.

When these deductions are combined, the total penalty would be 1 point for the under spin and an additional 2 points for the extra strides jogged beyond the allowed two. This gives a cumulative deduction
