Which statement correctly describes when ASTM/SEI helmets are mandatory?

Explanation:
Head protection is required in situations with higher risk and for youth riders in English disciplines. In jumping, the risk of head injury is high, so ASTM/SEI helmets must be worn in every jumping class. In English classes, the helmet rule applies to riders 18 years old and younger, meaning juniors must wear a certified helmet in English events while older riders aren’t mandated in English classes. That combination—helmets mandatory in all jumping classes and in English classes for riders 18 and under—best fits the rule.
