Boarders Have the Use of One Stall, One Tack Locker, and One Blanket Hook Per Horse
Valley Riding, Inc. ROCKY RIVER STABLES GUIDELINES Boarders have the use of one stall, one tack locker, and one blanket hook per horse. Boarders may use the indoor arena, 2 outdoor arenas, round pen and access to the Cleveland Metroparks trails. A. FEES 1. If horse is removed from barn at any time for less than one month for training, showing, etc. there is no partial refund of board. If horse is leaving for one month or more, payment of ½ of board for each month that horse is gone will ensure availability of same stall upon horses’ return. Without payment, horses’ stall will most likely change. 2. Service fees such as turn outs, vet holds and coaching will be billed by the end of each month, and payment should be added to the next month’s board check. 3. If there are any unpaid fees, such as service, board or lessons, all services, including turn outs and lessons will stop until ALL fees are paid. If situation is not resolved in a timely fashion, Valley Riding Inc. will pursue legal action. B. BARN Barn Hours: 8:00 AM -- 10:00 PM Mon thru Fri 8:00 AM -- 9:00 PM Sat & Sun Barn Is Closed To Boarders Except During Barn Hours – This Is An Insurance Mandate 1.

Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List
Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List Equestrian students are required to own and maintain the following equipment for their personal use in riding classes. Our faculty recognizes this list, though extensive, is not a complete list of equipment needed by professionals in our industry and is intended to accommodate the basic needs of students at the beginning of their careers. Substitution of some items is possible; however, the specific equipment listed below is recommended. During our first week of the academic year the incoming class tours local vendors for the purpose of acquiring supplies and equipment. Many students choose to leave the bulk of their personal gear at home and acquire a set of school equipment during the shopping days. Local vendors typically give discounts to RMC students on the items they purchase during the tours. If students have any questions, we recommend waiting until the faculty can assist in the purchasing process. We have strong opinions about what works best in our program and can best guide our students toward appropriate choices after the school year is underway. All personal gear should be clearly and indisputably labeled. Brass tags or plates riveted to leather tack are recommended. More economical “dog tags” can be purchased at a local PetSmart and work well to identify the owner. Additionally, black permanent markers can provide effective labeling of various items. Students may choose to color coordinate their gear using patterned duct tape or spray paint to create a distinctive “brand” on their equipment. Rider apparel Students need to manage their personal attire with a balance of professionalism in concert with practicality for weather conditions and budget. -

Saddlery Inspectionsinspections
SaddlerySaddlery InspectionsInspections Rules and Procedures for Ring Stewards to conduct Saddlery Inspections in Dressage classes at USEF/USDF competitions March 2013 1 SaddlerySaddlery InspectionsInspections Competition management must appoint a sufficient number of ring stewards to carry out the following duties: Communicate with the warmup steward and announcer, so that competitors can be kept informed as to who is “on deck” and whether the ring is running on time. Check saddlery and equipment, and the horse, after the specified number of rides. Inform judges of any delays or other concerns. Radio for help for ring repairs or emergencies, as directed according to the Accident Preparedness Plan. Depending on the layout, number of rings and other factors, more than one ring steward may be appointed to share these duties. 2 SaddlerySaddlery InspectionsInspections Ring stewards must check saddlery and inspect bits and spurs on both sides of the horse for at least one- third of the horses in each class. In some classes, inspection is required for each horse. Inspection of saddlery and bits should be done at the direction of the Technical Delegate. 3 SaddlerySaddlery InspectionsInspections Management must provide (preferably latex free) disposable protective gloves, at least one per horse. (While one glove is required for USEF competitions, two are required for FEI competitions – and two are recommended for USEF competitions.) The rider should see the inspector put on a fresh glove. Inspection is done immediately after the performance ride. At no time should the horse, spurs or other equipment be touched with an “ungloved” hand, as the glove provides protection against the spread of disease. -
CHAPTER 2 -- One Day's Work at the Track
Racing Maxims and Methods of Pittsburg Phil -- by Edward Cole (1908) CHAPTER 2 -- One Day's Work at the Track There is no better way of making plain what a successful racing man is, than to tell of his day at the track. What he does and what he will not do. How he conducts himself. How he remains always master of the situation and of himself. It seems to me that will be the best kind of a lesson for the man who would like to share with him in his general prosperity. Preparation for a day at the track begins the night before, of course, for then the entries of the day are studied, impossibilities are eliminated, and the contenders are decided upon. This is succeeded by an early retirement in a condition that will guarantee natural rest from the fatigue of the day at hand. Being of a philosophical frame of mind, as I have said, the excitement and nervous strain of the incidents of the previous day are to be dismissed from the mind, and sleep is to be wooed without a rival. As a result, the racing man should arise in the morning, cool and clearheaded, and with the first opening of his eyes he should again take up the problem of the day. The horses come before him at once and they never leave until after the contest is decided. I think about them the very first thing when I awaken, weighing them in one light, and from one standpoint and another. As I dress and eat my breakfast, I am placing them here and there, giving each a chance until at last from all standpoints I decide which one, in a truly and perfectly run race, devoid of the hundred or more unlooked for incidents that can happen, should be the winner.
