Class 1 stallions are eligible for additional merits (Gold, Silver and Bronze) based on their own performance and their progeny’s performance in a number of disciplines. Stallions that were previously classified as ‘RID’ are classified in this class. RID [GB]: Stallions that were inspected and classified as ‘RID’ by the Irish Draught Horse Society Great Britain (IDHS[GB]) from 2001 to 2010. RID [CAN]: Stallions that have been classified in the RID class of the Irish Draught Horse Studbook maintained by the Irish Draught Horse Society Canada (IDHSC). CLASS 2 (C2): Stallions that meet the veterinary requirements but have not met the inspection requirements. Stallions that were previously classified as Section 1 (S1) are classified in this class. G2 [GB]: Stallions that have been classified as ‘Grade 2’ by the IDHS[GB] between 2004 and 2010. S1 [CAN]: Stallions that have been classified as ‘S1’ by the IDHSC between 2004 and 2012. CLASS 3 (C3): Stallions that do not meet the veterinary requirements. Stallions that were previously classified as Section 2 (S2) are classified in this class. UNINSPECTED (C4): Stallions that have not come forward for a veterinary examination or an inspection of any kind. NOTE: Stallions previously classified as ‘RID’ are classified as Approved in the ISH Studbook. Class 2 and Class 1 Irish Draught stallions that have not previously been classified as ‘RID’ are eligible for classification as Approved in the ISH Studbook providing they meet specified performance criteria. ID STALLION ASSESSMENT PROCESS STUDBOOK INSPECTION: Stallions must be a minimum of 3 years of age to be presented for the Irish Draught Horse Studbook inspections. Stallions undergo a veterinary examination (including X-Rays) and an assessment of their conformation, type, movement and athleticism using linear scoring. Movement is assessed both in hand and loose and athleticism is assessed by means of loose jumping. Older stallions can opt to have their athleticism assessed under saddle. Stallions that meet the veterinary and inspection requirements are classified as ‘Class 1’. OPTIONAL ATHLETICISM ASSESSMENT FOR BRONZE MERIT: The owners of ‘Class 1’ stallions aged 4 years and older can opt to have their stallion’s athleticism assessed by jumping a course of fences at 1.00m level under saddle. Stallions that achieve the minimum athleticism score are awarded a Bronze merit for their own performance in the discipline of show jumping. 4 IRISH DRAUGHT HORSE STUDBOOK STALLION MERIT CRITERIA Stallions that are classified as CLASS 1, RID[GB] and RID[CAN] in the Irish Draught Horse Studbook are eligible to be awarded additional merits (BRONZE, SILVER and GOLD), based on their performance and their progeny’s performance in a number of disciplines.
