In a normal hunters round your horse will be asked to leave the ring on your 3rd refusal. In a medal show jumping round u will be eliminated after 2 refusals.
They will not be able to participate or get a new horse some how.

Everyone hopes to end up with zero faults, which means no rails down and that they were under the time. You incur four faults for every rail down, or if your horse touches the water. I think it's four for a refusal as well and you get a maximum of three refusals per fence. Being unhorsed is disqualification. If you are over time you incur one penalty for every second over. Average scores usually end up between zero and twelve penalties.
That's how a winner is determined. The more mistakes made the higher your score, winners needing the smallest score. It separates the good from the great.
Round character.
A penalty in show jumping is called a fault, caused if a horse refuses to jump, knocks down a jump, or does not complete the course in the given amount of time. Horseisle answer- fault
A non-verbal refusal can be a simple refusal to say anything, crossing your arms, turning your back , walking away , or failing to show up for an event .
