Perhaps the literature I have is not very descriptive, I'm trying to find the difference between IPO and FH trackng, does anybody have practical experience in this area?

Are you talking about the difference in the requirements for the track or in the style of tracking? The style should be the same. An FH track is longer, older, more turns, and more difficulties of terrain (change of terrain, road crossing).

Are you talking about FPr = TR or IPO-FH? or just FH1,2?

I think Cristine summed up what I wanted to know, so it's basically the same except longer then.

Longer, older, harder terrain, cross-tracks. The FH2 has a different start set up.

IPO 1: min. paces: 300, on 3 legs, with 2 corners, aged for min. 20 minutes.
IPO2: min. paces: 400, on 3 legs, with 2 corners, aged for min. 30 minutes.
IPO3: min. paces: 600, on 5 legs, with 4 corners, aged for a min. 60 minutes.
FH1: min. paces 1200, on 7 legs, with 6 corners, aged min. 180 minutes.
FH2: min. paces 1800, on 8 legs, with 7 corners, aged min. 180 minutes.

FH 1: cross tracks 30 minutes after finished the track.
FH2: cross tracks layed before starting the track.

FH tracks must be on variable terrain.

They have removed the requirements of the road crossings from both the FH1 and 2. The start of the FH2 has been the same as the start of other tracks for several years. The FH2 also must have 2 acute corners and at least one arc.
