31. If a handler removes a horse without the permission of the judge or steward the show<br />

organiser will levy a £100 fine on the handler. The exhibitor will be ultimately responsible for<br />

SPECIFIC TO RIDDEN CLASSES<br />

32. PROTECTIVE HEADGEAR No person shall be mounted on a horse on the showground unless<br />

he/she is wearing a correctly fitting hard hat. The AHS strongly recommends that hats conform to<br />

the standards EN1384 or PAS 015 and are correctly fitted with chinstraps. This is compulsory for anyone<br />

under 18 and for anyone taking part in Show jumping classes.<br />

33. A Novice horse is one that has not been placed first in three ridden classes at novice or open level<br />

at affiliated shows and/or has never qualified for HOYS prior to 1 January of the current season.<br />

one that has not been placed first more than two times at an affiliated show. <strong>Horse</strong>s entered<br />

in Pre Novice classes may not enter Open classes at the same show. Pre Novice classes<br />

are not qualifiers for any championships. Being placed first in a PreNovice class does<br />

not change the Novice status of a horse under Rule 33 of the AHS Rules for Showing.<br />

34. Spurs must not be worn in Novice classes.<br />

35. Whips used in Ridden classes must not exceed 75cms (30ins). Side saddle excepted.<br />

36. No horse shall be ridden on the showground in<br />

19


draw reins, side reins or running reins. A breach of this rule may result in the horse being<br />

disqualified from its classes in which case entry fees and awards will be forfeited. Side reins may be used<br />

when lunging.<br />

37. Ridden class exhibits must wear conventional and well maintained English tack. The judge may<br />

refuse to ride or judge a horse if he/ she deems the tack to be unsafe or unsuitable.<br />

38. <strong>Horse</strong>s entered in ridden classes must be 4 years old or over. Age is calculated from the 1st<br />

January each year. (e.g. a foal becomes a yearling on the first day of January following that of its<br />

birth).<br />

39. The class as a whole should be ridden and not judged solely from the ground; the exception<br />

being any pony 148cm and under which must be asked for an individual show. In a mixed height<br />

class this exception must be communicated to all the exhibitors so that they clearly understand the<br />

position from the outset of the class. Individual shows will be required in Championships.<br />

40. Junior Rider Classes - restricted to riders who are 18 years and under on the first day of the<br />

show. The judge will not ride any of the exhibits. The horses will give a short individual show and<br />

be placed on their performance and the ability of the rider. The winners of these classes do not<br />

qualify for the main Championships.<br />

41. HOYS Qualifiers To qualify the horse must not have previously qualified during the current year<br />

and the exhibitor must have purchased an AHS Q Card displaying the name of the horse.<br />

If a class is split the top four from each section are eligible to ride off. The HOYS qualification<br />

will go to the highest placed, previously unqualified horse in the top four in the ride-off.<br />

42. Any exhibitor falling off within the show ring during the course of a class will be disqualified<br />

and asked to leave the ring dismounted.<br />

43. If a rider removes a horse from the ring without the permission of the judge or steward the show<br />

organiser will levy a £100 fine on the rider. The exhibitor will be ultimately responsible for<br />

ensuring payment. Exceptions may be made if the horse is seen to be unsafe and the rider is unable<br />

to attract the attention of the Steward.<br />

44. In ridden classes, a horse’s manners are important and Judges should refuse to ride<br />

unmannerly, unschooled or dangerous horses.<br />

45. <strong>Horse</strong>s must be trained to stand quietly to be mounted. Judges may choose to use a mounting<br />

block.<br />

46. Any horse in a ridden class which behaves in a manner which could cause, or result in danger or<br />

injury to any other horse or person in the ring, will be ordered to leave by the Steward on instructions<br />

from the judge of that class.<br />

47. LATENESS Exhibits which appear late (missing the walk around the ring) will be<br />

excluded from the class.<br />

48. RIDDEN CHAMPIONSHIPS All qualified exhibits must be ridden into the ring. However, if<br />

a rider has qualified more than one horse, that rider will be allowed, if they wish, to exchange<br />

horses and ride each horse for its individual display. A groom is allowed into the ring to hold<br />

the horse whilst not being ridden.<br />

RIDING IS A RISK SPORT<br />

Although all due care and attention will be paid to matters of safety and Health and Safety, persons attending<br />

the show do so at their own risk. The <strong>Scottish</strong> <strong>Regional</strong> <strong>Group</strong> of the <strong>Arab</strong> <strong>Horse</strong> Supporters accepts no<br />

responsibility for injury or loss to persons or possessions, how so ever caused. It is strongly advised that<br />

persons attending the show have in place personal and public liability insurance cover.<br />

Our prestigious shows are known as some of the friendliest shows in the UK and attract a wide range of<br />

competitors, in numerous disciplines from all over Scotland and England. We are delighted when our<br />

sponsors attend our shows whether as a spectator or competitor seeing first-hand how our group helps to<br />

promote the <strong>Arab</strong>ian horse. Our sponsors are greatly appreciated by the show organisers, the <strong>Scottish</strong><br />

Committee and our competitors. In response to this, we have some very appealing packages in place to offer<br />

our show sponsors.<br />

Sponsoring a class costs only £30, in return for this you can place a quarter page advert in our show<br />

catalogue as well as having your name advertised beside the relevant class in the show catalogue/schedule.<br />

We are also happy to provide you with refreshments should you wish.<br />

If you would like to sponsor a Championship class, the cost for this is £125. In return, you can place a half<br />

page advert in our show catalogue, as well as having your name advertised beside the relevant class in the<br />

show catalogue/schedule. We will print the company name onto the tails of the winners rosettes and you are<br />

most welcome to present the relevant trophy and have photo opportunities with the winners should you wish<br />

as well as receive refreshments and nibbles courtesy of the SRGAHS committee. You are most welcome to<br />

display any leaflets and have a trade stand. Your name will be called out on the tannoy, further advertising<br />

your generous sponsorship.<br />

If you would, however, like to upgrade you can be the main sponsor at the event. This costs £250, in return<br />

you can place a full page advert in our show catalogue, as well as having your name advertised beside the<br />

relevant class in the show catalogue/schedule. We welcome any banners to put up within the rings at the<br />
