  • Equine Drug Policy Frequently Asked Questions

    Equine Drug Policy Frequently Asked Questions

    431 South Cascade Ave. Women’s Professional Rodeo Association Colorado Springs, CO 80903 Phone: (719) 447-4627 Equine Drug Policy Fax: (719) 447-4631 Frequently Asked Questions 1. Question: Why is the WPRA implementing the WPRA Equine Medications and Prohibited Substances Policy? Answer: The WPRA has had a policy governing medications and prohibited substances since the 1990’s. The new testing program being implemented updates testing procedures and adopts new hearing procedures. The updated policy reflects a growing concern among WPRA members regarding the use of prohibited substances, and promotes WPRA’s commitment to the health, welfare, and safety of horses and WPRA members. In addition, the new testing rules promote standardized testing and hearing procedures that will be applied uniformly at all WPRA approved rodeos and/or World Finals, and prevents rodeo committees or other third parties from imposing testing rules on their own initiative. 2. Question: Who do I contact with questions about particular substances and whether a particular substance might violate the WPRA Equine Medications and Prohibited Substances Policy? Answer: The WPRA has worked closely with the United States Equestrian Federation in developing the WPRA Equine Medications and Prohibited Substances Policy, and WPRA Members should contact the USEF Equine Drugs and Medications Program with questions regarding how the WPRA Equine Medications and Prohibited Substances Policy Rules might apply to a particular substance. Any questions regarding the interpretation of WPRA’s Equine Medications and Prohibited Substances Policy, including the application to particular substances, should be directed to the office of the Federation Equine Drugs and Medications Program, 956 King Ave., Columbus, Ohio, 43212, (800) 633-2472, FAX (614) 299-7706.

    The Following Event Descriptions Are Presented for Your Edification and Clarification on What Is Being Represented and Celebrated in Bronze for Our Champions

    The following event descriptions are presented for your edification and clarification on what is being represented and celebrated in bronze for our champions. RODEO: Saddle Bronc Riding Saddle Bronc has been a part of the Calgary Stampede since 1912. Style, grace and rhythm define rodeo’s “classic” event. Saddle Bronc riding is a true test of balance. It has been compared to competing on a balance beam, except the “apparatus” in rodeo is a bucking bronc. A saddle bronc rider uses a rein attached to the horse’s halter to help maintain his seat and balance. The length of rein a rider takes will vary on the bucking style of the horse he is riding – too short a rein and the cowboy can get pulled down over the horse’s head. Of a possible 100 points, half of the points are awarded to the cowboy for his ride and spurring action. The other half of the points come from how the bronc bucks and its athletic ability. The spurring motion begins with the cowboy’s feet over the points of the bronc’s shoulders and as the horse bucks, the rider draws his feet back to the “cantle’, or back of the saddle in an arc, then he snaps his feet back to the horse’s shoulders just before the animal’s front feet hit the ground again. Bareback Riding Bareback has also been a part of the Stampede since 1912. In this event, the cowboy holds onto a leather rigging with a snug custom fit handhold that is cinched with a single girth around the horse – during a particularly exciting bareback ride, a rider can feel as if he’s being pulled through a tornado.

  • The Barrel Racer's Guide to Speed Development

    The Barrel Racer's Guide to Speed Development

    Page 1 The Barrel Racer’s Guide to Speed Development “How to reveal the freaky fast athlete in your horse!” BY Heather Smith I once came across some great horsemanship advice that suggests we do our “feeling during the day and thinking at night.” I often remind myself of this in order to sustain a balance between the two. I’ll be the first to admit that over the years, I’ve done way more thinking than feeling. It’s not that I haven’t gained a lot through having this tendency to be such a dedicated left-brain student, with a desire to analyze and figure out how things work and why. The trouble with many barrel racers, is that they don’t do enough thinking OR feeling. It’s all too common to get stuck going through the motions (we’ve all done it), not so much aware of what’s working, what’s not working, or why. As the famous quote by W.L. Bateman says… “If you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got.” Barrel racing has been in the Stone Age for too long when it comes to speed development. We breed for it, we (think) we train for it, we feed for it, but for the most part, it remains a gamble. Sometimes, we come across that “freak of nature” horse, or sometimes we stumble across the perfect recipe for explosive speed, by complete accident. Like you, I had developed some ideas when it came to speed development based on what I’ve seen and experienced.
