Answer

The letters are AKEHCMBJ, in that order starting from the "top" of the ring going clockwise around it. A good acronym to remember them is "All King Edwards Horses Can Make Big Fence's.

The letters are something like road signs. Usually in dressage riders are given directions of what to do, at a certain letter.
Example:
Rider is in the center of the ring (the X), walk to "C" and turn left and trot, continue to "K", at K cut across the ring at a diagonal to letter "M", at "M" turn right, continue to "F", at "F" trot, continue to "A", at "A" walk, turn your horse right, walk to the middle of the ring (the X), at the middle stop horse and dismount

the letter x simple marks the center of the ring and isn't actually there in a real ring

Here is a picture so you can follow my directions: http://www.dover-foxcroft.com/infinityfarmimages2phasetest.jpg
