WELCOME
What a year we had in 2015! We would like to thank you, all the competitors, owners, trainers, parents,
grooms, and sponsors, for choosing to be part of Blenheim EquiSports. With your support, we have
achieved our goal of providing the best competitions at the highest quality venues.
Standards are important to us and we constantly strive to be better. We embrace challenges and new
ideas. Keeping this in mind, we have worked to simplify our prize list, improve time management, and
streamline the scheduling process to create a more seamless integration.
Young Jumpers, our future champions, will continue to get the support they need with discounted
stabling and waived entry fees in their respective divisions. This season, however, they will be provided
the opportunity to enter an additional class, compliments of Blenheim EquiSports. Interactive Mortgage
is also reaching further to promote young horses and riders by adding more qualifying classes and increasing the prize money for the finals in Las Vegas.
The Olympic Qualifying Trials for the 2000 Sydney Olympics and the 2004 Athens Olympics were
held at our facilities. Young equestrians from all levels and disciplines watched in awe of the expert
horsemanship and skilled athleticism transpiring before their eyes. Many of those young equestrians are
now professionals bringing forward the new generation of champions. The future of the sport is bright.
We are privileged to be part of its enrichment for our young people, our community, and our country.
From World Champion Hunters and Pony riders to World Cup Jumpers and Equitation riders,
we delight in witnessing the enthusiasm and progress within our growing community.
See you in the Spring,
The Blenheim EquiSports Team

10. MANAGEMENT:
The Horse Show Management reserves the right to itself to interpret all questions and conditions
in regard to or arising out of or incident to the show without claims for damages or recourse of any kind. All questions not
covered in these rules and regulations shall be decided by the Horse Show Management and their decision is final. The Horse
Show Management reserves to itself the right to refuse, accept conditionally, or to cancel any entries, disqualify riders or
exhibitors, prohibit claim damages; to change any course, to cancel or combine any unfilled classes, or to reschedule classes,
after due notice to exhibitors; to change rings or rotate judges, and to change specifications in jumper classes.
11. CONDITION OF ENTRY:
Every horse entered for competition will be under the control of Horse Show Management
but the Horse Show Management will, in no case, be responsible for any loss or damage that may occur, and it shall be a
condition of entry that each exhibitor shall hold the Horse Show (competition) and its officials, employees, directors, officers,
Blenheim EquiSports Management Company, LLC, Blenheim Facility Management, and sponsoring entities harmless for any
loss or accident to his/her horse, horses, employees or equipment which may occur from sickness, fire or other cause.
12. ASSUMPTION OF RISK:
By signing the entry blank, the Owner, Lessee, Trainer, Manager, Agent, Coach, Driver,
Rider, Handler, Vaulter or Longeur acknowledges that horseback riding, particularly jumping, is a dangerous activity and involves
inherent risks that may cause serious injury and in some cases death because of the unpredictable nature and irrational behavior of horses, regardless of their training and past performance and expressly assumes all such inherent risks whether identified
herein, in the entry blank or in the Federation Rules and Regulations. A horse, without warning or any apparent cause, can
buck, stumble, fall, rear, bite, kick, run, make unpredictable movements, spook, jump obstacles, step on a person’s foot, or
push a person--all of which may cause the rider or observer to fall or be jolted, resulting in serious injury or death. A horse
may also become loose and cause injury to an observer or rider or to another horse – a loose horse can run at full gallop in a
panic and run into objects or persons or other horses. The Show Ground Facilities are bordered by highways/roads and thus
noise from traffic and other sources occurs that can and will cause a horse to unexpectedly spook or react quickly. The Show
Ground Facilities contain roads and driveways that are traversed by cars, golf carts, tractors, trailers and heavy equipment all
of which may spook a horse. The above warnings and risks are meant as an example of some of the risks that are inherent
and may be encountered but it is agreed this is not an exhaustive list and there are numerous additional conditions and/or
events that may result in injuries while participating in the Competition and/or being present on the Show Ground Facilities.
13. STABLING:
Horses are allowed to move-in one day prior to the start of the horse show. Stalls whether occupied by
horse, feed, or tack, will be available for $300 ($275 Showpark Spring Festival). If stalls are paid in full by the closing date
of entries, a pre-payment credit of $50 will be given. Young Jumpers stall fee is $175/show/week, if only showing in age
restricted classes. First bedding will not be included. Permanent stalls are of wood or canvas construction 10’x10’ with doors.
NO STRAW BEDDING WILL BE PERMITTED, AND ONLY SHAVINGS WILL BE PERMITTED. ANY EXHIBITOR USING STRAW WILL BE ASSESSED AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE. ANY EXHIBITOR REMOVING

per week.
14. FACILITY FEE:
There will be a $50 facility fee for all horses entered.

includes, but is not limited to riding, driving, longeing, leading and exercising). Ample jumps in the appropriate areas will be
provided for schooling. The rider/trainer/coach/person setting the jumps is responsible to ensure that all components of
the jump are available and if such parts are not readily available, they agree to notify the paddock steward and/or schooling
supervisor. The rider/trainer/coach/person setting the jumps is also responsible to ensure the jump is set correctly in compliance
with USEF rules and assumes the risk for improperly setting the jump. In accordance with California state law, poling and/
or the use of offsets WILL NOT be permitted. Violations of schooling regulations may be considered cause for FINES and/
or ELIMINATION and can be instituted by the official schooling supervisor, paddock master, official USEF Steward or any
member of management should the situation arise.
20. CLOSED RINGS:

of the above will be considered cause for FINES and/or ELIMINATION.
21. NUMBERS:
Horses are required to have their correct Horse Show Entry # attached whenever they are exhibiting. Not wearing a # while competing may constitute elimination.
22. CONFLICTS:
It is the intention of Horse Show Management to avoid holding rings to wait for horses and/or riders.
Riders with conflicts must arrange their jumping order with the starters so that they will not hold up a class. Paddock
Stewards have the authority to scratch riders who are not timely. Trainer conflicts are not considered legitimate conflicts.

limited to, golf carts, motorcycles, scooters, or farm utility vehicles on the competition grounds of recognized competitions.
Minors who have a valid temporary license may operate the above described motorized vehicles if they are accompanied by
an adult with a valid driver’s license. The parent(s), legal guardians(s), or individual who signs the entry blank as parent or
guardian of a minor operating a motorized vehicle in violation of this rule are solely responsible for any damages, claims,
losses or actions resulting from this operation. Violations of this rule will be cause for sanctions against the parent(s), guardian(s),
and/or trainer(s) who are responsible for the child committing the offense. Penalties may include exclusion of the child,
parent(s), guardian(s), and/or trainer(s) from the competition grounds for the remainder of the competition and charges being
filed against any of the above individuals in accordance with Chapter 6. Wheelchairs and other mobility assistance devices for

the gate in all “A” rated hunter sections will forfeit their entry fee unless a Certificate from the Official Show Veterinarian vet
scratch for the show is received by the official show secretary prior to the section in question. Should same day scratches or
no-shows result in insufficient entries to keep sections split, sections will be combined. “Non-showing” fees will be assessed
accordingly. When splitting all hunter classes, the preferred method will be “California Split” per HU 110.7.
32. STATEMENT OF HEALTH / VACCINATIONS:
