[RC] When you see the vet after reaching pulse criteria? - Kristen A FisherI am curious about this. I thought you must present to the vet within your hold time? So, if you pulse in, and have a 45 min hold, you have to see the vet within that 45 mins. I have read the rules and know it is a bit ambiguous. Just curious on others thoughts about this. Kristen At the internal vet checks, it is only the pulse criteria that must be met within 30 minutes of arriving at a vet check. For the veterinary examination portion of the vet check, riders may take as long as they damned well please to see the vet. As far as I know, it is only FEI rides that require you to go straight from the pulse check to the vet--and, in fact, SOME ride vets require riders to wait at least 30 minutes AFTER meeting criteria to vet their horses. There definitely is no AERC rule about it. So, if I want to, I can arrive at a vet check, meet criteria within the required 30 minutes and then wait two hours before presenting my horse to the vet at the vet check. There is no AERC rule against this, and I have never been to any AERC ride that had a rule against this. kat Orange County, Calif. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
