years & over) and $15.00 for Youth (8 years and under 18 years) for the duration of the show
from the show office and a waiver for the membership needs to be signed. Only members
holding full, participant, youth or temporary membership to the Australian Stock Horse
Society may participate in the events held at our show. You will not be permitted entry to
the competition areas without a wristband.
Refunds for scratched horses requested after the start of the show will only be considered if
made in writing and accompanied by a Doctor’s Certificate or a Vet certificate. If request is
successful, 20% of total entries will be kept by the Northern Branch to cover administration
fees.
All people entering the grounds, competitors and handlers do so at their own risk. Neither the
organising committee nor the Australian Stock Horse Society Limited accept any liability for any
accidents, damage, injury or illness to horses, riders, spectators or any person or property
whatsoever.
Rude and bullying behaviour will not be tolerated. Anyone found to be behaving rudely or
bullying any official, judge, steward, competitor, helper or spectator will be asked to leave the
grounds immediately and will forfeit any entry money for competitions not yet undertaken.
Under no circumstances is a parent of a child to enter the ring to address the Judge other than
if there is an accident involving their child. All enquiries are to be made through the Ring Master
only.
All horses must be adult registered ASH except those ridden by youth members under the age
of 13 years in youth classes only. Registration papers must be available to inspect on
request and the Committee may inspect horses to check registration.
The Committee has the right to change, delete, defer or alter the program prior to the show or
on the day and classes may be moved to other rings at the discretion of the show committee.
ASHS recommended dress rules apply.
Stallions and Colts two years and older must be shown with a bit and the bit must be in contact
with the handler/rider at all times. They also must be double tied (ie secured with a neck strap
and halter) when tied up. Colts and Stallions are not permitted to be handled or exhibited by
any members under 18 years of age.
The wearing of helmets is recommended for all those competing in ridden classes. Competitors
under 18 years of age must wear a helmet that complies with AS/NZS 3838 or equivalent at all
times whilst handling or riding a horse. Junior judging optional.
Riders with multiple entries must provide adequate handlers to avoid delays in the program.
All complaints or protests must be made in writing to the Show Secretary within 30 minutes of
the incident occurring and must be accompanied by a $50.00 fee. This fee will not be refunded
if the complaint is found to be frivolous. All complaints or protests will be handled by the
Disputes Committee. The decision of the Disputes Committee will be final and binding on all
competitors.
The Amateur RIDER Award in all Challenges is open to persons who have not won or placed in
an Open Challenge, ridden Futurity or Maturity or Youth Challenge at State, National, or Royal
level. Riders eligible for this award are required to nominate on the entry form.
To be eligible for classes or awards for Northern Branch Members the person, Youth or Senior,
