JUDGES
R31
JUDGES
The Judges are instructed to withhold prizes where the entry is not of sufficient merit, and in awarding
prizes the Judges are instructed to make their awards according to the relative merits of the exhibits
for breeding purposes in breed classes. If in the opinion of the Judges any animal appears to be
unfit for breeding purposes, the Judges shall be at liberty to have the animal examined by one of
the Society’s Veterinary Surgeons, whose opinion shall be considered to be final and conclusive,
and if he/she so directs, the animal will be disqualified from taking a prize which might otherwise
be awarded to it. No person other than a Steward or authorised Official of the Society shall enter
a ring when judging is in progress, nor shall have any communication with the Judges during the
time of judging, and all exhibitors and their agents acting in opposition to this regulation shall forfeit
such prize as may be awarded to their exhibit.
R32
CHANGE OF JUDGE
Should an exhibit be forward for competition, which was either bred or previously owned by the
officiating Judge, then a referee may be introduced at the request of the Chief Steward of the
Section. The onus of a horse being exhibited in a class judged by a person who has had a financial
interest in the animal or which has stood in his stable etc. must be on the exhibitor. The exhibitor
will know who is judging from the schedule whereas the Judge will not know which animals are
coming before him until he arrives in the ring. If there is an unforeseen change of Judge then the
exhibitor should stand down from the class and entry fees will be refunded. EVERY EFFORT WILL BE
MADE TO INFORM EXHIBITORS OF A CHANGE IN JUDGE.
R33
PARADES AND JUDGING
Any exhibitor or employee refusing to bring their exhibits on parade at a specified time when
requested by the Stewards to do so shall be liable to forfeit to the Society any prize money previously

their exhibits ready for such parade thirty minutes prior to the times of parades as laid down in the
