Horse Societies

PLEASE NOTE: You may have seen recent discussions on social media about adults riding ponies in Breed Sections as Shows.  A reminder of rules…

ER 6 – Affiliated Breed Societies rules cannot contradict or compromise the classes or events covered by these rules; and

CDE 11 d) Novice pony exhibits (except Novice pony stallions) may be ridden by a rider of any age, in novice pony classes only.

These rules were voted in by A&P Members and affiliated Breed Societies and have been in the Equestrian Rulebook for many years.  We are only outlining this, so we can alleviate any Protest that may occur at a Show/Event for the upcoming  show season.

As in past years, early in 2024 we will have our annual ZOOM open discussion call with Equestrian Breed Societies to discuss any concerns/issues you may have.  This discussion will include the above two rules and may result in a remit(s) being forwarded by the Breeds to amend any rules they deem necessary.

In the meantime if you have any queries,  please contact Leigh Taylor, RAS Equestrian Breeds Chair, P: 027 431 2092.

Thank you for your ongoing support with this, and we wish all Breed Members a great 2023.2024 show season.
