Post to: Sunshine Tour, Great Bookham Equestrian Centre, Dorking Road, Great Bookham, Surrey, KT23 4PZ Email: enquiries@sunshinetour.co.uk Tel: 01372 451458 (from Tuesday before show 07904 898696) 1

SUNSHINE TOUR INTRODUCTION Congratulations on qualifying for the Sunshine Tour Championship! We re thrilled to be able to offer you the chance to compete on the hallowed turf of England s most famous showground, The All England Jumping Course at Hickstead. Our aim is to put on a fun and exciting championship show, run to the highest standards possible whilst maintaining a friendly, inclusive atmosphere. The spirit of this competition as an amateur & unaffiliated championship is very important to us, our sponsors and our competitors, so we request that all participants respect the spirit of restrictions, not necessarily just the letter of the law. In some cases competitors and/or horses can have lightly competed in affiliated competition, but professionals are excluded (see general rules & conditions for our interpretation of professional activities). We have tried very hard to keep entry restrictions relevant and realistic; if you are in doubt about whether you are genuinely eligible to compete or which section you should compete in, please contact Sunshine Tour HQ at enquiries@sunshinetour.co.uk for clarification. You may have more than one class to choose from, relevant to your original qualification. As a guide: classes are for novice / inexperienced and classes are for more experienced / competitive combinations. Read the class notes and restrictions carefully to ensure you enter the correct class for your own and your horse s experience and previous winnings. If you find that you are overqualified for the class that you originally qualified in, either because of restrictions or because you are now competing at a higher level then you can voluntarily upgrade to a higher level class. For example: in dressage if you qualify in Prelim you could voluntarily upgrade to Novice; in jumping if you are over qualified for 70cm then you can upgrade to 75cm or above; in showing if you are outside the restrictions for a class, you can upgrade to a one instead. Horses/riders that have more than the allowed points or placings, but NONE earned in the previous 3 years (dated to 30th September 2018) might be eligible to compete. You can contact HQ for clarification on enquiries@sunshinetour.co.uk We hope that you will join with us in creating a fun and fair competition for all and enjoy yourself! Good luck! SHOWING - KEY POINTS NEW!! 4-digit bridle numbers must be worn (your bridle disc to display your number will be sent with your pre-show information).

All competitors are also eligible to enter Training classes and if relevant, Best Rescued. You can compete in different Tours (provided you are within the rules for each class that you enter).

Winner and reserve from each class are eligible to go forward to their Supreme Championship.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What the difference between Mini Tour, and classes? Tours are just categories. The basic difference is about the level of competition and experience of the competitors. Mini Tour is for very inexperienced riders, is for novice combinations and is for more experienced. If you re not sure which you fit into, check the rules & restrictions (in each discipline s page on www.sunshinetour.co.uk) and there s an explanation of who can go into which category. How Many Championship Classes Can I Enter? Dressage & Show Jumping: you can enter one championship per recorded qualification, up to a maximum of 4 championships. Dressage: you can compete twice per level over 2 consecutive levels. Show jumping: you can compete in up to 4 consecutive levels. Showing & Eventers Challenge: you can enter two championships per recorded qualification. Showing: you can enter any number of classes, with due consideration for the health of your horse/pony. Eventers Challenge: you can enter up to 3 consecutive levels. In all disciplines: you must have qualified during 2018 and have recorded your details by 25th July. If you ve qualified for more levels than you can take part in, then you must drop the lowest level. All qualified competitors can take part in training, warm up & open classes. Can I enter Mini Tour, AND classes? Hmmm, not always straight forward! Generally speaking yes you can, just remember that if you want to compete in the more restricted class (i.e. Mini or ), you and your horse/pony must fit within the restrictions. If you are within those rules, then there is nothing to stop you competing in the as well. Please remember the spirit of competition and don t compete below your genuine capabil ity. Competitors considered to be competing below their ability may be removed from a class or changed to a more appropriate Tour. I ve qualified more than once for the same level of competition/class can I enter more than once? Record each qualification - it might be possible to upgrade or swap for something else so that you can make the most of your golden tickets. My horse or the qualified rider have taken part in affiliated competitions, can they still enter? That will depend on how much money has been won, or points awarded, or level of competition you ve taken part in and how long ago you earned the points/wins. Please refer to the restrictions allocated to each class (available in each discipline s championship page on www.sunshinetour.co.uk) or if in doubt contact us at Sunshine Tour HQ on enquiries@sunshinetour.co.uk for clarification. Can I change the horse or rider/handler from the original qualification? There s a simple answer to this one absolutely not! What happens if I ve qualified, but then find that I m overqualified for the championship? If you re overqualified, you can voluntarily move up a level e.g. if you ve qualified for Prelim dressage, but don t fit into the restrictions for the Prelim championship but are eligible for the Novice, then you can enter the Novice instead. You can t downgrade from your original qualification. I qualified in a showing class, but now find that the horse height restrictions or rider age restrictions are different in the championship class. Can I enter the original class that I qualified for? The quick answer is - you go with the championship restrictions even if different from the qualifying class. Who can enter open / warm up classes? What s available for warm up? There are warm up / open classes in every discipline, only competitors who are taking part in a Sunshine Tour championship class can enter open classes but you are not restricted to the same discipline. There are also warm up areas for use on the day. What happens if a championship class gets oversubscribed? If this happens, then we will keep a waiting list and let you know if a space becomes available. Entries are taken on a first come-first served basis and classes might fill before the closing date. Qualification and pre-registration is not a guarantee of entry availability. What happens if I have to withdraw after entering? If you have to withdraw before the entry closing date, you will be refunded (probably after the show) minus an admin fee. Wit hdrawals after the entry closing date, up to 2 weeks after the show will only be refunded on receipt of a vet s or doctor s note explaining why you were unable to compete (minus an admin fee). No refunds whatsoever for stabling cancellations after entry closing date, sorry this has to be a strict rule. Does my horse have to be vaccinated to compete or stay overnight at Hickstead? No, there is no official requirement to have your horse/pony vaccinated, however, it is highly recommended. Can I stable overnight? Can I bring my own bedding, hay and feed? Can I buy bedding, hay and feed? Yes, stabling is available to pre-book (but gets full up very quickly). Yes, you can bring your own bedding, hay/haylage and feed or you can purchase bedding, hay and haylage (but not feed) with your stable booking. Limited amounts of bedding, hay and haylage may be available to purchase on the day (cash only). Please note collection times may be limited to afternoons and the buyer is responsible for collection (wheelbarrow recommended!). Can I camp? Can I stay in my lorry? Does it cost to park and enter the show? Horsebox and trailer parking is free. Accompanying cars park in a different field (no pass required). You can camp or stay in your horsebox or trailer. Additional vehicles for overnight accommodation, like caravans, campervan, extra horseboxes must pay for a special pass. There is electric hook-up available, pre-book with your entry. Can I bring friends and family? Does it cost to park and enter the show? Yes, definitely bring friends and family, there s no charge for spectator parking or entry to Hickstead showground. What catering and food shopping is available? Catering at Astore s catering outlets or in the Bar & Grill. There s also an on site small provisions shop and there s a garage and a pub within walking distance. Will there be a photographer or souvenirs to buy? Yes!
