1. A rider’s status in other disciplines does not affect their status in Western judged
classes. Any rider that has won a Grand or Reserve Champion twice, or who has a
3.25 point average with 4 or more riders (including combined classes) will advance
to the next highest division. Riders will be notified of their advancement to a higher
division. A rider may voluntarily advance to a higher division, however they may
not return to a lower division at any time in the future.
2. In order to comply with IHA rules, age status is determined as of December first of the previous year. Youth riders are those who have not reached their 18th birthday as of December 1st.
Adult riders are those who have reached their 18th birthday as of December 1st. Proof of age may
be required.
3. Management reserves the right to cancel, combine or divide any class. Classes with less than
three riders will be combined or will be run but no points will be awarded. All class entries will be

2013 GENERAL INFORMATION
1. All of the classes being offered will be conducted and run in accordance with the IHA
Rules and Regulations and the 2013 AQHA Rule Book unless otherwise specified. IHA
rules supersede any other rules. Should a question or dispute arise that is not covered in the
rulebook, the judges’ and show management decisions will be final. A protest, in writing,
must be lodged the day of the show to the show manager or committee chairperson. All
decisions by said person will be final and protests will be answered in writing if necessary.
2. IHA Western Division recognizes both the American Paint Horse Association and the
Empire Quarter Horse Association Competitive Riding Programs.
3. Pre-entries will be accepted by phone or e-mail until 9:00 PM the Friday before the show.
All other forms of entry, such as mail, are the responsibility of the entrant and must be
received by the Friday deadline. When a horse show extends the courtesy of taking an
advanced entry over the phone, it is with the understanding that said entries will be paid
and credit is extended on these terms. If the said entries are not canceled by the deadline
stated above and not paid for, the exhibitor will have their name posted and future IHA and
affiliated organizations may refuse entries until fees are paid. No exhibitor will be
permitted to perform without payment of fees. A $25 handling fee will be assessed for any
returned checks. All checks payable to the Islip Horseman’s Association, Inc. A signature
for all riders, including those of the guardian of junior exhibitors will be required.
4. No refunds will be issued unless a licensed Vet’s certificate of the horse’s unsoundness or
a Doctor’s note of the rider’s inability to perform are submitted. If your horse is unable to
perform and there is a valid Veterinary note, you will be allowed the use of one other horse
under the same number and will be eligible for end-of-year awards. You may revert to
your original horse if he becomes fit or continue with the second horse, but there may be
no other changes. There will be no refunds offered beyond ten days of the show date.
NOTE: There may be no substitutions in Halter or Colorbreed Halter.
5. All participants and spectators enter premises and ride at their own risk. IHA and Suffolk
County Department of Parks disclaim any liability for any accident or occurrence no
matter what the cause.
6. No stallion will be permitted in competition within the IHA at any time. In addition, due to
the dangerous nature of stallions in close proximity to other horses, they are not permitted
on the show grounds or area while the IHA is competing.
7. Management reserves the right to cancel, combine or divide any class. Classes with less
than three riders may be combined. If cancelled, money will be refunded. All class entries
will be closed when the preceding class enters the show ring. A two-minute rule to enter
the ring will be strictly enforced.
8. Classes requiring a pattern will be posted the day of the show.
9. Correct mandatory western attire is required: long-sleeved western shirt, hat, boots. Chaps
are recommended. Riders under the age of 14 must wear an ASTM approved safety helmet
at all times when mounted (NYS law). No refunds will be given for incorrect attire.
10. Horses 5-years-old and younger may be shown in a snaffle bit, hackamore, curb bit, halfbreed or spade bit. Horses 6-years-old and older may only be shown in a curb bit, halfbreed or spade bit. Any horse of any age shown in any novice or lower class may be shown
two handed with a snaffle bit/hackamore. When a curb bit is used, a curb strap or curb
chain is required, but must meet the approval of the judge, be at least one-half inch in
width and lie flat against the jaw of the horse. Curb chains cannot be tied to the bit with
string or cord. A broken strap or chain is not necessarily cause for disqualification.
11. First - sixth place ribbons will be awarded in each class, except reining. Champion and
Reserve will receive an award in each division at the end of the day. Overall End of Day
High Point Grand & Reserve ribbons will be posted & awarded within a week of the show.
12. Amateur Eligibility Rule: A rider is an amateur competitor if they have not received
compensation to show, judge or train within the last five years, whether monetary or
otherwise, either directly or indirectly. If a competitor has received compensation for this,
they are considered a “trainer” and may compete in All Age divisions only. In exception
to this rule is any one involved in therapeutic riding programs.
