If this does occur you may be asked to ride up to 15 minutes earlier than the draw time. It is recommended that competitors report to the Marshall/Gear Checker for inspection 20 minutes prior to competing. Riders who do not complete a gear check will incur elimination. Warm up Arena Etiquette:
As there are many horses warming up in a restricted area it is important that all riders have knowledge of the etiquette required in group riding. This ensures safe riding and achieves harmony in busy areas. Safety is paramount and a collision should be avoided at all times Before entering the warm-up area make sure the gateway and immediate track are clear Riders should pass left shoulder to left shoulder when on the track When not on the outside track, e.g. on a diagonal line, riders should give way to horses on their left The more progressive gait has priority on the track Halt should not be on the track Walk should not be on the track and does not have right of way Trot has priority over walk Canter has priority over trot Lateral work has priority over all paces When circling, anticipate your return to the track so as to not stop the flow of other riders Mounting, dismounting and gear adjustment should be done off the track Consideration should be given to behavior of other horses in the arena that may upset your horse It may be necessary if your horse is upsetting others to leave the area If a horse is upsetting the majority, an Official should be sought to request that horse s removal for safety reasons Horses are to be lunged in the designated lungeing arena. Lower level riders should not disturb the warm up of higher level riders. First Aid An ambulance and first aid officer will be present at this event. If you require an ambulance to transport you to hospital one will be called for you at your expense.
