ALL NEW FOOTING! FEI CSI4*-W USEF 6* JUMPERS USEF PREMIER HUNTERS ENTRIES CLOSE TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5
WELCOME Dear Riders, Trainers, Owners and Friends of WIHS, Please join us for the 59th Annual Washington International Horse Show! Where 26,000 enthusiastic, spectators and 500 of the best horses in the world will meet in the nation’s capital to enjoy great dining, shopping, and entertainment all while competing for $500,000 in prize money, prestigious championships, and of course, Georgetown Cupcakes! We continue to raise the bar based on your feedback. We are pleased to announce all-new footing for 2017! In the past, Verizon Center’s installation constraints have made it impossible to accommodate this type of footing which riders have requested, but our new footing partner, The Footing Firm, is making it happen. The new footing is a sand, fiber, GGT blend, a newer spin on fiber-sand technology that creates a very stable surface but also absorbs the energy impact of the hoof. This new footing is low maintenance and has less dust.
NEW WORLD-CLASS FOOTING COMES TO WIHS “Our riders have been asking for this type of footing for years, but Verizon Center’s installation constraints made it virtually impossible. The Footing Firm is making it happen, allowing us to meet the needs of our riders and provide new footing that is low maintenance and has less dust.”
“I’m very happy and encouraged to hear that WIHS has made the investment in new footing for 2017. It is a fantastic show with the best horses and riders, and they deserve to compete on the best footing. I look forward to returning this year to defend my title.” O

THIS IS
My Horse
™
From day one, when I watched Annie walk out of the barn, there was something about her. When you see her jump, there are no words. She is something special, something brilliant. If you appreciate horses, you have to appreciate what is in her. I hope that she will win what Sapphire has won. I even hope she will win more. Although they are very different horses in their way, there are some similarities. They are both really intelligent and there is just something different about them from others. My job is to take care of her, give her the best ride possible, and stay out of her way. So far we are okay!

FEI CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE The Fédération Equestre International (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. 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. 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. 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. 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. The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their areas of expertise.
FEI RULES & REGULATIONS
This event is organized in accordance with: • FEI Statutes, 23rd edition, effective 29 April 2014 • FEI General Regulations, 23rd edition, 1 Jan. 2009, updates effective 1 Jan. 2016 • FEI Veterinary Regulations, 13th edition, effective 1 Jan. 2016 • The Jumping Rules and its Annexes, 25th edition, 1 Jan. 2014, updates effective 1 Jan. 2016 • FEI World Cup Jumping Rules, 12th edition, 1 May 2009, updates 11 May, 2016, updated effective for 2016/2017 season • CSI AND CSIO Requirements according to Annex VI of the FEI Jumping Rules and it’s Annexes 25th edition, 1 Jan. 2014, updates effective 1 Jan. 2015 • Equine Anti-Doping and Controlled Medication Regulations (EADCMR), 2nd Edition, effective 1 Jan. 2016 • FEI Anti-Doping Rules for Human Athletes (ADRHA), based on the 2015 revised WADA Code, effective 1 Jan. 2016 • All subsequent published revisions, the provisions of which will take precedence. • An arbitration procedure is provided for in the FEI Statutes and General Regulations referred to above. In accordance with this procedure, any appeal against a decision rendered by the FEI or its official bodies is to be settled exclusively by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland. VETERINARY EXAMINATIONS, HORSE INSPECTIONS and PASSPORT CONTROLS These will be carried out in accordance with the Veterinary Regulations, Art. 1011 & the discipline rules. Gen. Regs., 23rd Edition, Revision effective 1 Jan., 2009 will apply: Art. 139.1: Every horse entered for any competition at CNs or ClMs (see Appendix D) in a foreign country (see GRs 141.2), and all horses entered for other Cls, ClOs, Championships, Regional and Olympic Games, whether at home or in foreign countries (see GRs 141.2), must have an official valid FEI Passport, or a National Passport approved by the FEI WIHS Prize List H October 24-29, 2017 H Verizon Center H Washington, DC
51
and accompanied by an FEI Recognition Card and, when applicable, an FEI registration number, as a means of identification and to establish ownership. Art. 139.2: Horses taking part in CNs and ClMs (see Appendix D) in their country of residence are not required to have such a passport as is mentioned in paragraph 1. All such horses must be properly registered and identifiable and, unless there is no national requirement for equine influenza vaccination in the host country and in the country of origin, all horses must have a valid vaccination certificate. EQUINE INFLUENZA VACCINATION, VET. REGS. ANNEX VII (except events in NZL & AUS) All horses and ponies for which an FEI Passport, or a National Passport approved by the FEI has been issued, must have the vaccination section endorsed by a veterinarian, stating that it has received two injections for primary vaccination against equine influenza, given between 1 and 3 months apart. In addition, a booster injection must be recorded as having been given within each succeeding 6 months, subsequent to the second injection of the primary vaccination. None of these injections must have been given within the preceding 7 days including the day of the
competition or of entry into the competition stables. The above are the minimum requirements for influenza vaccination. Both primary and first and subsequent booster injections should be given according to the manufacturer’s instructions which will fall within the stipulation of the FEI ruling. SAMPLING FOR PROHIBITED SUBSTANCES (Vet. Regs. Chapter V & VI; Annex IV) Regular sampling is carried out in CCIs (3*,4*), CSIs (3*, 4*, 5*), CIOs, World Cup Qualifiers and Finals, Championships and Games, whereas at other CIs sampling is recommended. When testing takes place, the number of horses tested is at the discretion of the Testing Veterinarian/Veterinary Delegate; however, a minimum of three is recommended (Vet. Regs. Art. 1016). Special guidelines are applicable for events covered by the FEI Medication Control Programme (Groups I & II only).
CUSTOMS FORMALITIES Before a horse can enter the United States, it must have an import permit, a health certificate from the country of origin (signed by a veterinarian), and a negative CEM culture taking within 30 days of import (for mares and stallions). If allowed into the country, all horses must be placed in federal quarantine at a USDA animal import center, which usually lasts two or three days. In the United States, there are four ports of entry for horses coming into this country—Los Angeles, CA; Newburg, NY; Miami, FL; and Honolulu, HI. Each horse brought into this country must pass through one of these USDA facilities. During that time, the horse will be tested and observed for clinical signs of illness resulting from “exotic” diseases such as dourine, glanders, piroplasmosis, or more common diseases such as influenza. After quarantine, the mares and stallions over 731 days of age (two years) which are new to our country must undergo CEM quarantine at a separate facility. National Federations holding an international event in their country should inform their national veterinary authority and their customs authority at least four weeks prior to the event. They should request every facility to assist the movement of horses/ponies accompanied by FEI passports and the necessary veterinary certification at frontier crossing points into and out of their countries. (Vet. Regs. Art. 1004.2) INSURANCE All owners and competitors are personally responsible for damages to third persons caused by themselves, their employees, their agents or their horses. They are therefore strongly advised to take out third-party insurance providing full coverage for participation in equestrian events at home and abroad, and to keep the policy up to date.
MEDICATION CONTROL PROGRAMME (GROUP I & II ONLY) The Organizing Committees of FEI events within Groups I & II are advised to charge competitors the equivalent of CHF 12.50 per horse per event as a contribution towards the costs of the MCP programme. HEALTH REQUIREMENTS FOR THE ENTRY OF HORSES/PONIES The District of Columbia requires both a Negative Coggins Test within the past 12 months of the horse show and a Routine Health Certificate within 30 days for horses crossing into the District. Both the Negative Coggins and Routine Health Certificates must be presented to the Show Secretary upon arrival and therefore should not be mailed in with your entry form. An official from the District Board of Health will be present to inspect all certificates. During WIHS, the veterinarian’s phone number will be posted in the Horse Show Office and in the Stabling Office. United States regulations require that all equines be covered by official interstate health certificates, issued by a licensed veterinarian, showing that the animals are free from any symptoms of any infectious or communicable disease. The certificate shall include the name of the owner and address, destination, number of horses examined, the name, registration numbers(s), if any, tattoo, if any, sex, age, rectal temperature, color, and marking of each animal listed. Health certificates will become void after 30 days from issue. Health certificates must show animals to be negative to an equine infectious anemia test within the past 12 months. Date of test and approved laboratory must be shown on the health certificate. Equine Rhinopneuonitis vaccination is not required; however, if any animal is vaccinated, it is ineligible for entry within 21 days of vaccination. Vehicles transporting animals must have certificates showing that they were cleaned and disinfected under veterinary supervision prior to loading. This information can be written on the health certificate. 52
