You are thinking of what UMECRA (Upper Midwest Endurance and Competitive Ride Association) calls "competitive riding".  The basic rules are on: www.bfm.org/umecra/

 

No horsemanship judging, no artificial trail obstacles, no washing of horses.  Just 5.5-7 MPH pace, 10 minute window and vet scores much like a BC.

 

In re another thread:  UMECRA rides normally don't have a preentry requirement (some give discounts), have a pot luck dinner (saves catering expense, sometimes with a main dish supplied), and always refund for horses that can't start.
