Unfortunately there is an error in the Eventing, Show Jumping, Tetrathlon and Pony Racing rulebooks.  The rule referring to Micklem bridles is incorrect. 
Please amend as follows: “The Micklem Multibridle is permitted”  Remove “only with a simple snaffle bit, as per current Dressage rules.”

Pony Racing Vaccination Regulations and Requirements

The British Horseracing Authority and other event organising authorities recognise the great importance of protecting against Equine Influenza. Therefore they have strict vaccination requirements which must be complied with if you wish your horse to enter their competitions or onto their premises. If you fail to comply with their regulations your horse will be barred from entry onto the site.

• 1st Equine Influenza vaccination
• 2nd vaccination after 21 to 92 days from 1st vaccination.
• 3rd vaccination after 150 to 215 days from 2nd vaccination
• Thereafter annually, with the last permissible day being the same date as the previous year's vaccination.

Horses may not race until the 8th day after the day of vaccination.

It is the owner or trainer's legal responsibility to ensure that the horse's vaccination records comply with the BHA Regulations.

Other Discipline Rules

All Rule Books are available for download via our website. It is strongly recommended that you print out or buy a copy of the appropriate discipline Rule Book(s) so that you always have it to hand for your competitions.
