Whips are to be no longer than 6’ (six feet) including the snapper/lash/appendage. Small appendages (no more than 12 inches in length) of ribbon, plastic, etc. are permitted. Excessive or improper use of a whip shall be basis for disqualification.

DISCIPLINE/ABUSE: If it is ascertained that any exhibitor has made or caused to be made any false statement in regard to any animal or article exhibited, or if any exhibitor shall attempt to interfere with any of the judges in the performance of his or her duties, said exhibitor shall be excluded from competing or exhibiting. Any act of discourtesy or disobedience to the officials of this show on the part of the owner, lessee, trainer, groom, rider, driver, or handler will disqualify the horse from adjudication. Show Management reserves the right to remove any of the above listed from the show without being liable for compensation or damages. (USEF Rule GR 302) Any action(s) against a horse by an exhibitor which are deemed excessive by a judge, USEF steward or show veterinarian, in the show ring or anywhere on the competition grounds may be punished by official warning, elimination or other sanctions that may be deemed appropriate by the Show Committee.

JUDGES MUST EXCUSE FROM THE RING: Any horse shown that possesses a whip mark (welt) on any portion of the horse. A whip mark or welt is an inflammation of skin and abrasion or laceration. The cardinal signs of inflammation include heat, pain, (sensitivity to palpation) and swelling. The Judges’ finding of fact with respect to the presence or absence of a whip mark (welt) evident during a class shall be final, and no appeal may be taken thereon. The Judge shall make written findings of fact, which shall be delivered to the USEF steward with respect to any horse excused under this rule. Additional cause for mandatory elimination from the arena are a.) removal of eyelashes, b.) changing natural color of the mane/tail, c.) balding the area around the eyes or proximal to the muzzle and nostrils. Horses showing signs of undue stress or inhumane treatment or that have cuts or abrasions showing clear evidence of fresh blood in the mouth, nose, chin, shoulder, barrel, flank, or hip area must be considered ineligible to receive an award in that respective class.

We take any possibility of identity theft very seriously, and do keep tax ID and SS numbers in strict confidence. It is essential that you provide correct tax information with your entries to avoid delays in receiving your winnings. Please also note that the tax ID information must match the name on the entry form, and you must identify if you are out of the United States.

PRIZE MONEY AND AWARDS: Ribbons and trophies will be awarded in the show ring. If not enough horses in a (performance only) class to award prize money to a full top five, half the class will be provided full prize money and the remaining entrants will be awarded ribbons. All prize money will be sent within 60 days after close of the show. In the event of a protest, only the prize money in question will be escrowed until USEF makes a determination. In the event USEF upholds a protest, all affected placings will be adjusted and the reserve horse will receive its proper ribbons and prizes.

A horse is considered stretched if all four feet are flat on the ground and at least one front and one rear cannon bone is perpendicular to the ground. Excessive use of the whip or actions that may disturb other entries shall be severely penalized.

PERFORMANCE CLASSES: All horses shall be worked at all gaits both ways of the ring and otherwise as described by class specifications, and at Judge’s discretion, horses shall change from any gait to any other gait.

All horses chosen for a work-off must be worked both ways of the ring at any gait listed in class specifications as requested by the Judge. Horses must come to the “line up” at gait requested. In the “line up” horses must stand quietly and may be asked to back individually or as a group. Horses not to stretch on the line. Maiden horses must not have taken a first in their division.

Minors who have a valid temporary license may operate the above described motorized vehicles as long as they are accompanied by an adult with a valid driver’s license. The parent(s), legal guardian(s), or individual who signs the entry blank as a parent or guardian of a minor operating a motorized vehicle in violation of this rule are solely responsible for any damages, claims, losses or actions resulting from that operation. Violations of this rule will be cause for sanctions against the parent(s), guardian(s), and/or trainer(s) who are responsible for the child committing the offense. Penalties may include exclusion of the child, parent(s), guardian(s), and/or trainer(s) from the competition grounds for the remainder of the competition and charges being filed against any of the above individuals in accordance with Rule 6. Wheelchairs and other mobility assistance devices for individuals with disabilities are exempt from this rule.

MAHB JUDGING PROCEDURE FOR YEARLING HALTER CLASSES: Judging of the yearling classes at the 2017 Fall Festival will be conducted in a preliminary round and then a final, both in the Coliseum.

The preliminary round will be adjudicated with three judges using a scorecard with high and low scores being thrown out. The In Ring procedure will be approximately twelve horses per section called to the ring as determined

by Show Management. Order of go will be oldest to youngest. Scores will not be posted until after the Finals.

For the Finals, horses shall enter the ring at a trot and be lined up by the Ringmaster. The horses will be stood up by their Handlers and then be comparatively judged. The Judges will mark their cards 1st through 10th. The horse with the most points will be awarded Champion, the horse with the second most points will be awarded Reserve Champion, etc. In the case of a tie, the horse that was scored higher in the preliminary round will win. In both classes the horses will be announced in reverse order of placing.

We will be allowing those who are unable to run with their halter horses an option! Those halter handlers will be allowed to arrange a “runner” to run their halter horse into the arena and run them away from the judges following the center ring presentation. This person designated as the “runner”, must be an amateur, and may only run one horse per class. Halter handlers are responsible for finding and arranging their own runner. At the beginning of each class, halter handlers using a runner will enter the arena and stand on the east side of the center ring, and wait for their horse to come in. The runner will take the halter horse through the gate, and present the horse to the judges at the trot. When finished trotting, the runner will then hand off the horse to the

4

halter handler and will take the halter handler’s place on the east side of center ring. There will be limited seats provided, as the runners will remain in the ring for the duration of the class. The halter handler will do the walk around and present their halter horses for adjudication in center ring. As the horse is nearing the end of it presentation to the judges, the runner will move into position to take the horse from the halter handler and do the trot away from the judges. Then once finished with the trot away, the runner will hand the halter horse back to the halter handler, who will be waiting on the east side of center ring. Halter handler will have the halter horse in his control for the remainder of the class. Runners will return to their seats east side of center ring, until the class is finished. The runner shall never be allowed to set the horse up at any time it is in the ring and also, if a person is a runner in a class, they may not also be showing in the same class.

SHARPS CONTAINERS: Competition management shall place a minimum of one sharps container per each competition, whether or not stabling is provided. Additionally, at least one sharps container per fifty occupied stalls for the disposal of needles and other disposable sharp instruments in convenient locations in barns housing competition horses. It is competition management’s responsibility to replace such containers when full and dispose of them properly. Competition management may fine any individuals including trainers, owners, exhibitors or their agents up to $100.00 for improper disposal of needles or other sharp disposable instruments.
