Re: [RC] misuse of "Rider Option"? - John Teeter> No one has said where this requirement of having a reason for RO has come from....? Board Resolution: Ride Results. Pull Codes. 2000. L. Riedel presented corrections to the minutes of the midyear meeting as follows: Replace paragraph under EDUCATION as follows: M. Price moved "to include names of non-finishers (with code to explain reason) in ride results." Motion made to amend by stating, "horses pulled for rider option must be examined by the veterinarian and codes for the real reason stated, and that the name of the head veterinarian be listed on the ride calendar and in the results." Motion to amend carried. Original motion with amendment carried unanimously. Veterinary. Pull Codes. 2001. B. McCrary moved to Add three more categories to the pull codes: surface factors (SF), to include any chafes, galls or wounds that do not make the horse lame, but prompt the vet or rider to decide to pull: RO-L, and RO-M. These would cover any incident when the rider feels the horse is going lame or is having metabolic concerns. The RO shows that it was riders choice to pull, but the L or M shows why. L. Riedel seconded. Carried 12-9-2. Veterinary. Pull Codes. 2001. V. Rutter moved to add Disqualified to the list of pull codes (to be used for off trail. etc.) Carried 20 - 2 - 1 abstention. This motion transferred from National Office Committee). =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
