Arrange time for exhibition of horsemanship (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dressage

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'exhibition of horsemanship' is the definition.
'dressage' can be an answer for 'horsemanship' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not certain of the 'exhibition of' bit.

'arrange time' is the wordplay.
'arrange' becomes 'dress' (synonyms).
'time' becomes 'age' (an age is a period of time).
'dress'+'age'='DRESSAGE'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dressage that I've seen before include "Method of horse training" , "Equestrian discipline" , "Manoeuvres of a horse in response to body signals by its rider" , "Art of horse training" , "Part of equestrian event" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
