WS-028 MEASUREMENT OF HORSES
A. Once show officials have followed the rules for measuring
the horse (GR-020) and the horse has been measured, the
measurement becomes the official height for that show and
is not protestable once the horse enters the ring. The height
of the horse will be posted three (3) hours prior to the horse
entering the ring. If any horse is shown where measurement
was not posted (unless through show management error) in
accordance with the above, its height can be protested up
to one hour after its class is completed. If a protest is filed,
the procedures for protest as outlined in GR-050 must be
followed.
B. If a horse shows in two (2) different height classes during the
World qualifying period and at the World Championship
Show the horse measures in the taller height class, the horse
must have the required number of points of the taller height
class to be able to compete at the World Championship
Show. Points may be accumulated and combined in all
height classes throughout the World qualifying period to
qualify for the higher height class, but may not be used to
qualify for a lower height class than the class in which the
points were earned.
