Many of you will be traveling long distances through unfamiliar places, and it pays to think ahead. The following are things that you may already know, but now is a great time to read over them again and discuss safety with your family. It is also a great time to check the security measures you use to protect your belongings. Do what you can now to make yourself and your family an unattractive target to thieves and criminals. Be aware of your surroundings. If something doesn't look or feel right, trust your instincts. Park and walk only in well-lit areas. Travel in pairs, especially at night. Children should be with a responsible adult at all times. Look for a hotel with 24-hour on-site security. Don't carry large amounts of cash. Think about replaceable travelers' checks or debit cards with fraud protection instead. Keep a list of credit card and bank contact numbers in a separate place that you can use to cancel cards or accounts if necessary. Have a back up plan in case your purse or wallet is stolen. Purses, wallets, GPS devices, briefcases, bags, laptop computers or anything that looks valuable should never be left in a vehicle or unattended area. Spare wheels, tires and even whole trailers can be targeted by thieves. Locking the hitch on your trailer and the spare on your truck will make you a less attractive target. Lock your tack stall. Even if you're only going around the corner or into another stall, always lock up. Label your cell phone, camera, cases, tack carriers, etc. Found items are returned more quickly if the owner can be easily identified. If you can, leave your dogs at home. If you bring a dog, keep them on a leash or penned up. Please make sure they are wearing tags with a local or cell number where you can be reached. Put a label on your horse's stall with your cell, hotel, and local contact information so that you can be reached in the case of a horse emergency. If you see a horse in distress and the owner is not around, contact the show office or the stall office. The Stall Office is open 24 hours a day. 4 68th National Appaloosa Show & 2015 World Championship Appaloosa Youth Show New innovations designed into every Featherlite horse trailer.

I have read the ApHC rules about protective equipment, including protective headgear, and I understand that I am entitled to wear protective equipment without penalty, and I acknowledge that the ApHC strongly encourages me to do so while WARNING that no protective equipment can guard against all injuries. I further understand that any minor child entered in the Competition is required to wear protective headgear during games classes. I AGREE to furnish a current health certificate and current proof of negative Coggins for each horse on the show grounds, upon request of the show management and understand that any horse which develops a contagious disease during the show will be immediately quarantined or removed from the grounds. I AGREE that the ApHC has the sole right to control, sell, rent, supervise or give away (or to assign others the right to do so) the exclusive rights to broadcast, televise, reproduce, transmit and disseminate all or part of this event. I authorize the ApHC to make use of any photographs, films or video taken of the horses and exhibitors entered, while on the grounds or in transit between the stabling facility and the event site, in any way they see fit in the promotion of the Competition or the ApHC.

The competing non-pro must be enrolled in the non-pro program and must be eligible according to non-pro rules contained in the Official Handbook of the Appaloosa Horse Club. In order to compete in youth classes, the youth or member of their family (per Rule 801.A.1) must own the horse as evidenced by ApHC records prior to the first day of the show.

All entries submitted in writing must be made on printed entry forms furnished by the ApHC (photocopies of 8 the printed forms will be accepted), signed by the proper parties, and accompanied by all entry fees, equipment charges, cattle charges and a completed W-9 form for the first listed current owner on the Certificate of Registration.

This form must be completed by the owner or in the case of multiple owners, by the first listed current owner. If the correct TIN is not provided, subsequent payments can be subject to backup withholding per IRS regulations. Premium checks will not be issued until the ApHC has a W-9 on file for all persons receiving these checks. You are required to complete a W-9 with the appropriate certifications and submit this form with your entry. This information must be provided to the ApHC regardless of the age of the owner. Your exhibitor packet will be held if this form is not submitted. A W-9 is available online. The social security number listed on the W-9 should be that of the owner or in the case of multiple owners, that of the first listed owner on the Certificate of Registration. No other social security number is acceptable. International residents must complete IRS Form W-8ECI or the ApHC must deduct 30% of any monies earned.

A non-pro or a youth exhibitor may enter 9 classes at regular price and may enter a 10th class for FREE! This option is available for PRE-ENTRIES ONLY! This option is available to non-pro and youth exhibitors regardless of the number of different horses they exhibit and is based solely on the number of classes in which that non-pro or that youth exhibitor pre-enters. Entries for multiple horses MUST BE RECEIVED TOGETHER in order to credit the exhibitor for the FREE class. Once entries have been received, classes can NOT be substituted, scratched, added or changed in order to qualify for a free class. After the pre-entry deadline, regular post-entry processes and fees apply to any changes or added classes. Equipment, cattle and NSBA charges must still be paid on all classes even if these are assessed in the class in which the non-pro or youth exhibitor does not have to pay the entry fee. ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE There will be a one-time $45 administrative charge, which includes the drug-testing charge for each horse entered. This fee is assessed only one time per horse regardless of the number of classes or divisions (open, non-pro or youth) in which the horse is entered. For example, if a horse is entered in youth or non-pro classes and open classes, only $45 is due. For further clarification see DRUG TESTING. PAYMENT PROCEDURES All entries must be made payable to the ApHC in U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank. Payment may be made in the form of personal checks, Visa, MasterCard, money order or wire transfer. ApHC does not accept DiscoverCard or American Express as a form of payment. If you are paying by debit or credit card it is advisable to contact your bank or credit card issuer in advance about charges in excess of $200 (or your bank card daily limit) to avoid the charge being declined for security reasons. Cards declined by the bank will be treated as insufficient funds and may 10 result in your horse being excluded from the program and/or late stall penalties or post entry fees being assessed. Any check returned to the ApHC office due to insufficient funds will require certified funds and payment of a returned check charge of no less than $25 in order for entries or stall reservations to be processed. If the customer has not paid all charges for returned checks prior to the show, the agent/owner must bring certified funds to the show office for the entries to be processed. The ApHC must collect funds for entries and/ or stalls in which the credit card was declined or in which a check has been returned due to insufficient funds before processing entries or stall reservations. The date at which funds are secured for declined credit cards or insufficient funds checks will be acknowledged as the date the entries and/or stall reservations are received and processed. Post entry fees and late stall charges may be assessed to entries or stall reservations for which funds have been declined and which have not been cleared prior to the pre-entry deadline.

Coggins and health papers, as well as your original Certificate of Registration, must be presented to the show office. If current Coggins, health papers and the original Certificate of Registration are not available, the horse will not be allowed to compete and entry fees will be forfeited. All horses are subject to inspection by the Show Veterinarian or State Veterinarian at any time or if suspected of harboring a communicable disease. All horses must be serviceably sound. The attending show veterinarian recommends all horses be vaccinated for tetanus, influenza, rhinopneumonitis, EHV-1 and West Nile Virus. EXHIBITOR NUMBERS In all classes, an exhibitor number will be assigned to each horse. This number will be used for all classes in which the horse is entered. In the event a horse is entered in more than one division (open, youth or non-pro) one exhibitor number will be issued for each horse. There may be various specialty associations conducting classes at the National Show. In cases in which the horse is already entered in ApHC classes, the horse should be shown in all specialty classes using the same exhibitor number issued by the ApHC. In cases in which the horse is not crossentered in ApHC classes, exhibitors must enter the horse in the show office and pay the administrative charge on each horse.

INSPECTION STATION All horses entered in the show must report to the inspection station prior to showing in their respective classes. The horse’s original Certificate of Registration and exhibitor number must be presented to an Official Inspector prior to showing. Horses will not be allowed entry into the arena for any class until that horse has passed through the inspection station and that horse’s exhibitor number has been stamped by an Official Inspector.

If it is necessary for an inspec14 tion to be performed outside of these hours, an inspector may be available however the exhibitor will be charged $100 per horse payable at the time of the inspection. The ApHC recommends that you pick up your exhibitor number (contained in your exhibitor packet) at the show office, and have your horse inspected as soon as you arrive on the grounds to avoid long lines or an after-hours inspection fee prior to your class. The inspector, at his/her sole discretion, may refuse to allow a horse to participate if the Certificate of Registration of the horse appears invalid or otherwise improperly issued. If an Official ApHC Inspector refuses to permit a horse to participate, the owner has the right to appeal such refusal to the appeals committee of the ApHC Board of Directors. (See Rule 273 of the Official Handbook of the Appaloosa Horse Club.) DRUG TESTING All horses entered in the show are subject to drug testing. For complete rules and regulations concerning the drug testing procedures and drugs and medications, refer to Rule 40 of the Official Handbook of the Appaloosa Horse Club. The owner, trainer, or other responsible party must witness the blood or urine sample collection and sign the forms required by the veterinarian. Failure to do so waives any subsequent objections to the testing process or results. All payouts will be issued pending drug test results. If a horse tests positive for unapproved drugs or unacceptable levels of an approved medication, all ribbons, trophies and other awards shall be held in escrow by the ApHC until notification of the Disciplinary Committee’s decision. Drug tests will be administered at the discretion of the ApHC. Those horses selected for testing must report to the drug testing station immediately following each class or random request. Once blood and urine samples have been collected, the horse may leave the testing stall. Drug testing procedures will be strictly enforced.

DISQUALIFICATION Any exhibitor, horse or owner disqualified from any class for any reason shall NOT receive a refund of any fees of any kind. When disqualification occurs by the show management or judges, the decision is final. In addition to other disqualifications as outlined in the rules and regulations contained in the Official Handbook of the Appaloosa Horse Club, judges (including equipment judges) shall have the authority to disqualify entries for illegal equipment, improper attire, inhumane treatment, unsoundness/lameness or the presence of blood per ApHC rule 30.A.1.j.

WORKING ORDER All working orders in elimination and final classes will be decided or drawn by show management in accordance with official ApHC rules. If you and/or your horse are entered in back-to-back or concurrent classes and feel that this will cause a time constraint, you may inform the show office by 5 p.m. the day prior to the classes and request a change in the order of go to allow more time to prepare. Adjustments may only be requested for direct horse or exhibitor conflicts. No adjustments will be made for trainers' convenience or non-show conflicts. If possible, show management will then adjust your working order. If you do not contact the show office prior to 5 p.m. the day before the classes in question, we may not be able to accommodate your request. Once working orders or cuts have been posted, changes will not be made unless approved by show management. PADDOCK PROCEDURE Only exhibitors and their horses are allowed in the alleyway and holding area. This policy applies for the duration of the class, including eliminations and finals, etc. Once the horse has entered the paddock, only exhibitors entered in the class will be allowed to handle or ride their own horses. Grooming is prohibited in these areas including, but not limited to, any type of spraying. 16 Barn calls are a courtesy and will be made for each class and for all exhibitors entered in each class.

The paddock announcer will call exhibitors to enter the arena in their posted order of go. All horses must be ready and waiting in the make-up arena so they may enter the main arena promptly when called. In classes in which an order of go has been posted, entries not entering the arena for judging in their posted order of go are considered to have missed their class and will not be allowed to enter the arena to compete. In classes in which a time limit has been given to enter the arena, entries not in the arena at the expiration of that time limit are considered to have missed their class and will not be allowed to enter the arena to compete. Late entries will not be admitted into the arena once the gates have been closed. EQUIPMENT JUDGE An equipment judge(s) shall be employed by and be a representative of the ApHC.

Any equipment considered to be inhumane or illegal by the official equipment judge must be removed or entry into the arena will be denied. The equipment judge may disqualify an entry for illegal equipment, improper attire, inhumane treatment, unsoundness/ lameness or the presence of blood on the horse per ApHC rule 30.A.1.j. The equipment judge(s) shall have the authority to call for a blood and/or urine test on any horse. The equipment judge(s) may serve as an official alternate judge at the discretion of show management. LAMENESS Rules regarding lameness are adopted to protect the health of Appaloosas exhibited in ApHC shows. At show management’s discretion, either at the beginning or upon completion of a class or individual work, prior to leaving the arena, the horse shall be asked to perform movements/maneuvers on a loose rein or lead to demonstrate soundness. Exhibition of a horse that shows signs of unsoundness/lameness as determined by show judges in any class shall be cause for disqualification. A judge's decision as to the lameness of a horse is not protestable. See rule 712 in the Official Handbook of the Appaloosa Horse Club for complete rules regarding lameness.

Other farriers wanting to do business on the grounds must contact the ApHC for approval. ELIMINATION, FINALS, AND SCORING SCORING For the majority of classes either a four-judge or a three-judge format will be used to compute placings. This will be determined by show management. In most four-judge formats, the low scores will be discarded (except in cuts) and the remaining three scores tabulated to determine placings. In the three-judge format, no scores will be discarded; all three scores will be tabulated to determine placings. In placed classes, the judge’s placings will be converted into numerical scores according to the chart below: 1............. 120 2............. 105 3............. 91 4............. 78 5............. 66 6............. 55 7............. 45 8............. 36 9............. 28 10........... 21 11............ 15 12........... 10 13........... 6 14........... 3 15........... 1 CUTS In large classes when cuts are necessary, the cuts will be determined by a random draw. Exhibitors in each cut will enter the arena for judging and will be placed by all judges. Top placing entries from each cut will return to the arena for a clean-slate final go-round. The same exhibitor must exhibit the same horse in both the cut and the final. The same equipment must be used on the horse in the cut and the final. 24 TIE-BREAKING PROCEDURES All ties, except first place in individual performance classes, will be broken by a tie-breaking judge (pre-determined by show management before the class begins). If a tie occurs for first place in any individual performance class judged complete or in any individual performance class finals judged complete, there will be a work-off for first place only. Individual performance classes include working hunter, western riding, reining, cutting, trail and judged roping events. In the event of a tie in working cow horse, please see Rule 741.F in the Official Handbook of the Appaloosa Horse Club for tie-breaking procedures. ELIMINATIONS Any horse receiving a no-time or a no-score in an elimination round will be eliminated. Show management reserves the option of holding finals only depending upon the number of entries in the class. In case of a tie for the final qualifying position (except in Camas Prairie Stump Race and Nez Perce Stake Race) all those tied will go forward to the finals. In the event it is not necessary to run an elimination round, the class will be run complete at the time the final round is scheduled. In Camas Prairie Stump Race and Nez Perce Stake Race, if a tie occurs in an elimination round for the last position in the finals bracket, those horses tied will re-run on time only with the fastest time advancing. Once an elimination round has been held, no change of horse/exhibitor combination or tack/ equipment is allowed for the finals. In heading and heeling, the entrant must have the same helper in both the elimination and final rounds. In most classes, when possible the top 16 horses will be called back for the finals. In showmanship classes, if there are 40 or more entries, elimination rounds(s) shall be held with the top entries advancing to a final round immediately following the elimination rounds. Showmanship classes with fewer than 40 entries will be finalized in one go. AWARDS RIBBONS & TROPHIES In all ApHC classes, a Champion trophy is awarded to first place winners.
