welcome to the

del mar national horse show No stranger to the Del Mar Fairgrounds, I exaggerate only slightly in saying I was born and raised here. My family and I actually lived in a house on the fairgrounds for about 12 years. I’ve worked on the fairgrounds in various capacities for 20 years, including 16 years in the Events Department where I managed a wide variety of events ranging from 5K runs and booking fair time entertainment, to the Good Guys Hot Rod show. I jokingly refer to it as the summer job I never quit! My father, Larry Bauman, worked for 36 years as Chief of Operations and my stepmother, Barbara (B.J.) Bauman, familiar to many of you, managed the Del Mar National for nine years.

In contemplating my new position at the helm of the 70th Annual Del Mar National Horse Show, a few phrases come to mind. For example, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” and “the new broom sweeps clean.” As the new manager, it can be tempting to put my signature on it, but I prefer to work with and learn from staff members as they do their jobs. What I’ve observed, and am proud to be associated with, is a true collaborative effort. We strive each year to improve and present the finest in equestrian competition and entertainment, so in that sense, it certainly “ain’t broke.” But like any well-oiled machine, it requires consistent and meticulous maintenance. So, as the “new broom,” I am honored instead, to sweep in the platinum anniversary of the Del Mar National Horse Show and look forward to getting to know our extraordinary equestrian community better!

the

code of conduct for the welfare of the horse

The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) expects all those involved in international equestrian sport to adhere to the FEI’s Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that at all times the welfare

of the horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences.

1. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition horses, welfare must take precedence over all other demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farriery and tack, and transportation.

4. Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition injuries, euthanasia and retirement.

2. Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of aids.

5. The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their areas of expertise.

3. Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions, stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward travel after the event.

A full copy of this Code can be obtained from the Fédération Equestre Internationale, Avenue Mon-Repos 24, CH-1005 Lausanne, Switzerland. Telephone: +41 21 310 47 47. The Code is available in English and French. The Code is also available on the FEI’s website: www.horsesport.org.

Located 20 miles north of San Diego near the Pacific Ocean, Del Mar Horsepark provides an outstanding showcase for both exhibitor and spectator.

Must have valid registration papers with a member of a national studbook which is recognized by the World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses (WBFSH), or with recognized national breed registry.

All of the above “Owner” requirements apply to all listed owners on file with USEF, including all owners of a partnership, farm, company, corporation, etc. if a horse is recorded as owned by that type of entity.

two dancers

perpetual trophy The annual Grand Prix Musical Freestyle “Two Dancers Perpetual Trophy” was first presented at the Del Mar National Horse Show to Steffen Peters in 2011. The award, a bronze by Texas artist, Olva Stewart, was created by Georgia Griffiths, and sponsored by the firm she founded in 1989, G2 Software Systems, Inc. The “Two Dancers Perpetual Trophy” was named in honor of Griffiths’ two beloved show horses, “Dancing Queen” and “Petit Danseur,” musical freestyle champions in their own rights. Future winners will have their names added below Steffen’s on the trophy, which will be on permanent display in the Del Mar show office. Winners will also receive individual keepsake plaques.

USDF Statement on Animal Welfare The United States Dressage Federation, Inc. (USDF), a federation of 125 independent organizations throughout the United States with a membership in excess of 30,000 members, supports the concept of ethical treatment of animals. Dressage is a classical method of training horses, based upon the horse’s natural responses, as carried out in a gradual, planned program during which the horse’s athletic abilities are improved in a systematic manner. As a result, the horse becomes capable, comfortable, and responsive in partnership with the rider without the use of force. Dressage competition at various levels of achievement is the ultimate test of the training program to determine whether the desired harmony between horse and rider has been achieved. The rules pertaining to dressage competition prohibit the use of artificial appliances, training aids, and drugs, which would force the horse to submit. Instead, the emphasis is upon training and a cooperative partnership with the rider. Major competitions are carefully monitored to assure that there is no unnecessary force or harshness displayed. Unlike other horse sports in which horses enter training at a relatively immature state, dressage training is usually not seriously begun until the horse is three or four. The top levels of achievement require five or more years of progressive training and it is not unusual to see horses in international competition in their late teens. This, in itself, places a premium on good care and soundness throughout the horse’s life. While supporting the concept of animal welfare in its broadest form, the United States Dressage Federation, Inc., also recognizes that it is unrealistic to ascribe human emotions and responses to the horse which in its wild state is a creature of flight, living a hard and precarious existence. Under domestication, the horse is assured of ample food, water, and shelter, as well as protection against infectious diseases and damaging parasites, thus leading a longer and healthier life with a high rate of survival. As an educational organization, USDF has numerous programs, which teach people how to pursue the accepted, humane training methods. A program of certifying instructors also emphasizes protecting the horse’s welfare in pursuit of dressage training.
