Working equitation competition consists of four phases.

- Maneability – horse and rider demonstrate how calmly, precisely and stylishly they deal with obstacles.
- Speed – a test speed, agility, athleticism using the same obstacles as the maneability phase.
- Cattle – tests the ability of the horse and rider to work cattle individually and with teammates.
Compulsory phases are dressage, maneability and speed.
