THE FEI CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE

The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) expects all those involved in international equestrian sport

to adhere to the FEI’s Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that at all times the welfare of the horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences. 1. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition horses, welfare must take precedence over all other demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farriery and tack, and transportation.

2. Horses and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to

compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of aids. 3. Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions, stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward

travel after the event. 4. Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition injuries, euthanasia and retirement.

5. The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their

areas of expertise.

A full copy of this Code can be obtained from the Fédération Equestre Internationale, HM King Hussein I Building, Chemin de la Joliette 8, 1006 Lausanne, Switzerland, Telephone: +41 21 310 4747. The

Code is available in English & French. The Code is also available on the FEI’s website: www.fei.org.

13. BETTING

No (officially Organising Committee authorized) betting will take place at this event.

14. STEWARDING

If an athlete is uncertain as to whether the boots he/she intends to use during an event are allowed, he/she or his/her representative should show the boots to the Chief Steward for his/her opinion before the boots are used in training or in competition.

In addition, athletes are to be made aware that hind boots must be removed and placed again on the horse’s legs in the presence of a Steward while in the warm-up arena prior to entering the competition

arena for certain competitions. (If bandages are used in place of boots, athletes are not required to remove the bandages in the warm-up arena.) This procedure is compulsory for competitions for which boot and bandage control is mandatory, that is the Nations Cup, Grand Prix, and the competition with the highest prize money, and is at the discretion of the Chief Steward for other competitions.

As an alternative to carrying out this procedure at the time designated by the Steward an athlete may ask his/her groom to take the boots to the in-gate and place them on the horse’s legs in front of the

Steward prior to the combination entering the arena.

The Steward has the authority to intervene if a boot is deemed excessively tight by instructing that the boot be removed and put on again correctly. [Stewards are to note that it is normal for a horse’s gait to be somewhat affected immediately after boots have been removed and re-placed.] If an athlete or his/her groom refuses to remove and re-place the boot(s) when instructed to do so by the Steward, a Yellow Warning Card will be issued to the athlete in question.

Circle Assist® | Global Equestrian Services Page | 14

If it is deemed impossible or unsafe to remove the hind boots in the warm-up arena prior to the

combination entering the competition arena, due to an extremely excited or nervous horse, the boots of the horse in question are to be removed by the athlete/groom following the athlete’s round upon

leaving the arena and inspected by the Steward. This inspection may be carried out during the boot and bandage control if the boot and bandage control is carried out for the competition in question.

This procedure does not replace boot and bandage control after completion of an athlete’s round for competitions for which boot and bandage control is mandatory (refer to JRs Art. 244.1).

15. RESPONSIBILITY The Organising Committee (including their employees, representatives and show officials) will not be

responsible for any accident, injury or damage that may occur to, or any illness or disease which may be contracted by any horse entered at the CSI-W 5*– 2015 however occurring, and the competitors shall keep the Organising Committee indemnified against all liability whatever arising from any accident, injury, damage, illness or disease. Athletes recognize and accept that all equestrian sports involve inherent risks and that no helmet or protective equipment can protect against all foreseeable injury. Consequently, by entering their horse(s)

for CSI-W 5* Riyadh – 2015 they accept the risk and hold harmless the Organising Committee, the FEI, the officials, agents, employees and their representatives.

The Organisers will not be in any way liable for anything that may happen (from any cause or circumstances whatever) to property brought into the event or for any other loss, claim, matter,

circumstance or event whatever in connection with, or arising out of, or attributable to the actions of the Organising Committee (including their employees, representatives and show officials) or any of their

officers, or agents or these or any other rules or regulations special conditions prescribed by the event.

INJURY SURVEILLANCE Horses participating in FEI events are subject to injury surveillance protocols; such information is essential to ensure that (i) the Horse’s welfare remains paramount at all times and (ii) sound scientific reasoning

is applied to the safety of all Horses and Athletes participating at Events. Official Veterinarians are required to report on each injured horse at an event. 8. DOCTOR / MEDICAL SERVICE / FARRIER Veterinary and medical assistance, as well as farriery services, are available for the duration of the event. These are at the expense of those requesting them. When, in the opinion of the Show’s veterinary surgeon, a horse is so severely injured that it ought to be humanely destroyed, the Person Responsible should

where possible first be informed. However, the Show’s veterinary surgeon may proceed with humane destruction, without reference to the PR, in order to prevent undue suffering to the horse. Before taking this action, the Show’s veterinary surgeon should, wherever practicable, seek a second veterinary opinion. In such eventuality, owners are responsible for the cost of disposal.

9. PRIVATE VETERINARIES Private veterinaries will have to report to the FEI Veterinary Delegate upon their arrival at the show grounds, before they will be accredited and be allowed to enter the restricted area. Under no circumstance will any veterinary surgeon other than the FEI permitted Treating Veterinarian be allowed to treat any horse at the CSI-W 5* Riyadh – 2015, unless permission in writing has been received

from the FEI Veterinary Delegate.

10. STABLES All horses, entered for the competitions of the CSI-W 5* Riyadh – 2015 must be stabled in the official stables provided by the Organising Committee (immediately after the official horse inspection) for the entire duration of the event.

in accordance with the relevant FEI rules.

11. NO SMOKING POLICY Smoking inside the stables is strictly prohibited; offences against this rule, first will incur a fine and in case of a repeated offence, will lead to permanent exclusion from the stables by means of withdrawal of the accreditation of the person concerned.

12. EMERGENCY STABLE CARDS ECSCs must be obtained from the stable managers office upon arrival at the event. It is the responsibility of the rider/groom to complete the card in full and affix to their horses stable door for the duration of their stay at the show. Whilst every reasonable effort will be made to contact the owner/person responsible of the animal, if

unsuccessful the Veterinary Surgeon on duty will treat the animal as he finds necessary.

13. IDENTIFICATION

For identification purpose all horses stabled must carry their identification number whenever leaving the stables; offences against this rule, will incur a fine.
