Superior Equine Rules
Rules you need to know for Barrel Races Events
- In the event the timer malfunctions during your run, the announcer will NOT notify mid-run and if you hit a barrel or go off pattern then you carry the hit barrel penalty into your re-run, thus no re-runs will be rewarded. If you run clean and the timer misses you, then in your re-run you get a free roll, meaning any knocked over barrels will not be penalized.
- Absolutely no tabs or reservations without payment.
- Tie outs are according to the arenas rules, as well as outside shavings.
- Must ride with saddle.
- All riders must check-in with the show office before running.
- Refunds are issued only to medical, death in the family, or vet outs. After the Draw is posted will incur a 25% charge on the refund. No charge before the Draw is posted.
- If you miss your run after the 3rd call you may repay for the day and run at a later time
- To be in the average you must run all days of the show.
