CLASHING OF CLASSES

Every endeavour has been made to avoid classes clashing, but if an exhibitor finds the times of their classes overlap, it is suggested permission be obtained from the stewards to jump out of turn in the WHP classes, and give individual shows ridden and in-hand early in the Show Pony classes, then leave the pony with an attendant. The attendant may not ride the pony. Classes will not be held up for missing competitors. Exhibitors are reminded to consider clashing of either pony or riders before entering.

COMPETITORS LEAVING THE RING TO COMPETE IN OTHER CLASSES

When a competitor asks for permission to leave the ring to compete in another class the Steward will notify the Show Office who will then check that the competitor is competing in another class. If it is discovered that the competitor is not actually in another class they will not be allowed to return to the original class or be considered in the results.

THE CLASSES WILL NOT BE SPLIT.

All flat classes will be judged on marks except The Challenge, Best of the Best Area Supreme, Partbred, Bright Stars, Pretty Polly, Young SP, SHP and Intermediate classes and the final judging of the Best Rider classes.

DECLARATIONS AND ORDER OF JUMPING

All competitors (or their representatives) in W.H.P., the Free Style, the Best Rider and the Gold Cup WSP (Performance) classes, MUST report to the collecting ring Steward at least 15 minutes before the commencement of their classes.
