Substances which affect the performance of any horse or pony are prohibited. Anyone seen using the drugs on horses at the show grounds will be asked to leave.

Lunging for all horses in the large ring will be from 7:30 until 8:00 AM. All other schooling (jumping or rail work) will be from 8:00 AM until the ring is cleared by the Show Manager. There will be a 10 minute practice session for in-hand jumping. 11. To audit in riding classes, riders will pay the entry fee and remove their entry number. They will not be judged, pinned in the class, or accumulate year end points.

2 RULES: (Continued) 12. No coaching by any means is allowed once horse and rider have entered the ring for judging and the gate closes (see #13 for Tiny Tot exception). Coaching is defined as aiding, assisting, providing instruction, or helping a rider or horse at any time while the class is being judged. Safety is our highest priority. Should an unsafe situation (e.g. rider fall, unexpected and dangerous horse behavior) arise during a class, FSRC volunteers, parents, and coaches are permitted to enter the ring immediately. The class will continue after the rider and horse have left the ring safely. For rider safety/security purposes an instructor, parent, or other person may stand in the middle of the ring while a riding class is being judged. That person must have permission from the Show Manager and be in the middle of the ring before the judging starts. However, any interference, coaching, or assistance of any manner given to a rider unless it is a riding emergency will result in disqualification. The judge has the authority to remove any person from the ring should it become necessary to judge the class. Any horse/rider combination may be excused from any class at the request of the Show Manager or judge if considered dangerous to themselves or others. 13. Assistance/help in the ring while being judged may be given during Tiny Tots classes. Our judges know how to place little ones when some are being helped and others are riding on their own. Any rider in the Tiny Tots divisions may participate in higher level youth divisions. No year-end points will be counted for the rider or horse in the lower division and entry fees are required. 14. Assistance may be provided to hearing-impaired riders while being judged. This may include the use of transmission devices. The assistance must be given by the judge and/or the ring announcer to ensure that all commands, directions, and communication given during competition are heard clearly by all. A person associated with the hearing impaired rider may issue the instructions personally, however he/she must stand with the announcer while the class is being judged. Those needing assistance must receive approval in advance from the Show Manager. 15. Junior riders are defined as those 18 years and under, as of January 1 of current calendar year. 16. Senior riders are defined as those 19 years and older, as of January 1 of the current calendar year. 17. Master riders are defined as those over 45 years and older, as of January 1 of the current calendar year. 18. A rider in the Young Riders Divisions may opt to ride in a higher level division because of their skill level versus their age. Year end points will accumulate in the division they select. 19. Proper Dress is required for all classes except Young Riders Divisions. For instance, jackets and gloves are worn in Equitation classes. Western hats are worn in Horsemanship classes. However, we strongly encourage the wearing of helmets instead of the Western hats with no penalty. 20. All tack must be compliant with our affiliate organizations (e.g. Paint and Appaloosa Show associations) regulations, including bits and spurs. For instance, Western horses over the age of five years must be shown in curb bits. Hackamores may be used in timed events only. Dr. Cook s Bitless Bridles are allowed. 21. FSRC reserves the right to cancel, divide, or combine any class (including trail and command) based on participation and/or for safety purposes. However, classes with one rider may be judged on the Danish system. Points for classes not pinned separately at any one of the shows will accrue in the appropriate division (e.g. junior or senior age group, English or western discipline) for year-end awards. 22. Showmanship points will count in respective equitation/horsemanship divisions or age group. Bridles must be worn by a horse/pony over 2 years of age when shown in English Showmanship classes. 23. Unless stated otherwise in class descriptions, pony size is 14.2 hands and under. Adults may show ponies in any class. 24. Trail classes are not run in any specified order. Trail classes will be open when obstacles are set and for 2 hours so riders can schedule their trail class within their show schedule.
