Extra Comments 8424-1
Very impressive teamwork!
You have a little space to improve in some canter work and transitions, that I discussed in the other “extra Comments”.
In this test, you had some sticky moments in the 2nd part of the test for the trot work. It just needed to be a bit more elastic and secure in the connection, and showing more bend and clearer bend changes during the serpentine. Think of the serpentine loops as being part of a circle to give you a visual of adding bend and flexion.
The final halt, and I believe the beginning halt in another test, was just a touch crooked. Make sure your weight is even in your stirrups and your leg is properly in place at the girth on both sides coming in to your halts. Get the halt well established and immobile before you salute so the horse is tempted to step sideway.

Great job!
