[RC] Underage horses - Budler,Cindy - Afrox

In South Africa we have an age rule of horses being allowed to compete in 30
km rides  only from the age of 4 years old and only in the longer distances
form 4,5 yrs onwards. It is easy to enforce as each horse has to have a
passport to compete - even in 30km rides.
The official FEI passport is compulsory with all the horses details,
markings, vaccinations etc. 
This passport is also a logbook of all the rides results and times for that
horse. It goes with the horse to the Vet at the inspections and at the pre
ride vetting all the details are checked - marking , age, vaccinations etc.
It is the same as our rider logbook system - easy to check up on a riders
memberships, mileages, age etc.  We have become very disciplined with these
books and it really has made administration easier- all the data is
available at entry time and the results just get written into the books at
the end of the day prior to prize giving. There the certificates, prizes and
logbooks are all handed back to the rider.We do have a secondary check on
horse and rider as both of them are input onto the ride programme for the
timing system and results and the master database then checks their details
as it happens. That way we pick up any glitches or possible problems.
