THE JUDGES DECISION WILL BE FINAL. The Judges are instructed to withhold prizes where the entry is not of sufficient merit and in awarding prizes they are further instructed to make their awards according to the relative merits of the exhibits for breeding purposes and not to take into consideration the market value of the animals. No prize will be awarded to any unsound animal (lameness or other unsoundness from accidental injury shall not necessarily disqualify) and in every case where the Judges shall have a doubt as to height, soundness, or the correct age of any animal exhibited, they shall consult one of the Honorary Veterinary Surgeons of the Devon County Show and his/her decision will be final. 22 Exhibitors are not permitted to show an animal under a Judge who has been connected with the animal in any way, at any time. 20 Measuring of Horses. Appropriate classes will be chosen at random for measuring. Horses entered in classes chosen for measuring shall be presented to the Honorary Veterinary Officer, in the presence of a Steward, either for measurement or for checking with their Joint Measurement Scheme Certificate. Times of measurement will be displayed at the Horse Office and must be strictly adhered to. The height of the horse or pony as measured by the Honorary Veterinary Surgeon on the day of the Show will be taken as correct unless a Life Height Certificate issued when the pony is seven years or older is held. Three year height certificates issued to young horses and ponies will not be accepted, except in the year of issue. Horse and Ponies that exceed the height restriction for their class are permitted to upgrade to the relevant height class, but not vice versa. 21 Foals.

In cases where the foal has died, in the year of the Show, or is prevented from competing owing to illness or accident, the mare will be eligible to compete provided a certificate from a qualified Veterinary Surgeon is produced at the time of judging. This does not apply to the pony brood mare, sport horse brood mare and hunter brood mare classes where the foal must accompany the mare in the ring. FOALS MUST BE AT LEAST THREE WEEKS OLD AT THE DATE OF THE SHOW. Exhibitors wishing to show mares in foal rather than with foal at-foot should carry a certificate certifying the mare to be in foal. The Devon County Show reserves the right to inspect such certificates or, in the event of non-production of such certificates, may require the mare to be examined by one of the appointed Honorary Veterinary Surgeons. 22 Riding Classes. Horses and ponies exhibited in the riding classes are to be ridden during the judging. Exhibitors will provide saddles for that purpose. The right is reserved to limit the number of entries, which the judge may ride. No rider may be led except in a leading rein class or where the schedule states may be led. 23 Challenge Cups. Winners of trophies offered by the Devon County Show may retain these until 1st March in the year following the award, when the trophies and boxes (if applicable) MUST be returned in prime condition to the Devon County Show Office. 24 Headgear.

All protests must be made in writing and delivered to the Devon County Show Secretary within half an hour of the judging of said class. Every protest must be accompanied by a deposit of £50 from each person protesting, which shall be forfeited should the objection(s) be decided by the Show’s Council (five of whom shall form a quorum) to be unfounded. 29 Penalties. In any case where Exhibitors do not, in the opinion of the Stewards, conform to the Regulations of the Association, the Stewards shall report to the Show Secretary, within 10 days from the close of the Show, who shall call not less than five members of the Show’s Council to act with the Stewards, and who after hearing the evidence of the Steward(s) and Exhibitor(s) concerned, shall have the power to act or report to the Show’s Council as they may decide.
