FOR EIGHT YEARS, SALON ORSETIMES ORSETIMES H H DU Cheval D’EL Jadida HAS BEEN THE SOUL OF THE HORSE industry IN Morocco. LEAPING from ONE LEVEL OF SUCCESS to another, THE SALON HAS BEEN creating UNPRECEDENTED RECOGNITION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE industry. YEAR AFTER YEAR, IT HAS engraved A DEEP AND ENDURING INFLUENCE ON THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC, cultural, touristic, sporting AND recreational LEVELS OF OUR sport. A WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE ROYAL FEDERATION FOR EQUESTRIAN SPORT (FRMSE) PRINCE MOULAY ABDELLAH ALAOUI: Held under the High Patronage of HM King Mohammed VI, Le Salon du Cheval d’El Jadida contributes every year, since its inception in 2008, to the development of the equine industry in the Kingdom. Ms. Mouna Mohattane, the Communication Manager Within a few editions, this event has become an essential meeting place for professionals. Several DR. El-HABIB MARZAK horse-related activities are organised within the framework of national and international competitions of Salon Du Cheval and exhibitions of a high level. The entertainment program remains in a main feature of this professional fair which solidly combines leisure, cultural, artistic, sporting and recreational equestrian activities. ORSETIMES The importance and diversity of horse-related professions and their positive impact on the economic H sector have motivated the choice of the theme of the 8th edition ”The Horse: Arts and Crafts“. It reflects the desire to provide a discussion platform and exchange for professionals in the industry. Le Salon du Cheval d’El Jadida and the horse industry in Morocco cannot develop properly unless the fair gains international recognition. That’s why Le Salon du Cheval has made international cooperation a main focus of development. Thus, this year’s guest of honour is Portugal. The participation of this country in Le Salon du Cheval d’El Jadida is an opportunity to consolidate cooperation ties between the two countries in the horse industry and offers Portugal the opportunity to highlight its equestrian tradition in Morocco. Morocco will get the opportunity to discover the rich and diverse Portuguese equestrian history as well. This partnership might consolidate the exchange of expertise and promote the horse field as well as reinforce the development of equestrian patrimony in these two countries that have an age-old equestrian tradition. A WORD FROM DR. El-HABIB MARZAK, THE COMMISSIONER OF SALON DU CHEVAL D’EL JADIDA: Nelson Pessoa and Khaled Assem The Horse Fair continues to forge ahead by relying, as usual, on the national and international competitions, the high level championships and contests as well as on the outstanding riders and participants. The purpose is to make this event a springboard for a better reorganisation of this sector, and to serve as a meeting platform for expertise exchange aiming to promote the horse industry that the organisers intend to reinforce over the coming editions. ORSETIMES ORSETIMES The 8th edition shed the light on the Moroccan equestrian patrimony that says a lot about the place and H H culture of the horse in Morocco. From this perspective, the programme comprises many cultural and scientific conferences that reflect the interest of the institutional officials and the operators to promote the crafts related to the horse. This edition will grant a new lease to this event that gained its reputation thanks to activities which might push the programmes of breeders and their awareness of the latest horse breeding techniques.

Therefore, promoting jobs in this field through training and supervision plays an important role in the success of the strategy of developing the equine sector, which contributes to the strengthening of the horse’s role in the national economy.

Unidad de Investigación y Asistencia Técnica en Materiales, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Coyoacán, Distrito Federal, 04510, México. E-mail: [email protected] Horses with lameness modify gait behavior, but when it is subtle, it may not be possible to identify it clinically. The objective of this research is to characterize the normal gait phases of walking Warmblood horses by combining photogrammetry and accelerometry to monitor lameness to indicate a structural or functional disorder in the extremities. The study was conducted in 23 adult male Warmblood horses. Photogrammetry was used to identify the kinematic variables of the limbs and the markers path over time; triaxial accelerometers were used to capture the orthogonal acceleration components. It was determined that only 10 horses showed a normal gait pattern, there was a 43% correspondence between the expert´s judgment and the diagnostic techniques. According to the Stashak classification of the gait phases, cycle phases to forelimb were 34/4/8/13/41, while for hind limb were 54/11/8/8/19 (% of the stride).

  • Think Twice About Risks of Horse Rental Business by Robert C
    Think Twice About Risks of Horse Rental Business By Robert C. Church It is unrealistic to consider profit as an incentive for owning horses on a limited, part-time basis. Liability insurance makes it almost prohibitive for even full-time stables with professional help to operate. An element of risk for a horse-oriented busi- ness has never been established; therefore, the insurance rate is arbitrarily set. Volume of business and services such as indoor riding arenas, instruction and training, and professional supervision offered to their clientele keep the full-time stables profitable. Most rental stables cater to the novice rider who has had no formal instruction and thus is a considerable risk on a horse. A person who keeps horses for public hire must become familiar with the habits, disposition and traits of the horses. An owner who knows a particular horse is apt to be vicious may be held liable for injuries caused by that animal. The rental horse business is fraught with risk and should be entered into only after considering suitability of the horses involved, insurance costs, availability and safety of trails, and the expertise of those who will supervise riding. Some people use personal mounts for riding instruction.- In most cases a homeowner's policy will cover liability if this enterprise falls within the confines of a casual and not a full- time enterprise. However, many recently written policies do not include this type coverage. If you have the required skills, training horses on limited acreage as a part-time occupation can provide supplemental income.

  • 4/1 Can You Have a Ranch Horse and a Dressage Horse?
    Eclectic Horseman Issue #79 Sept/Oct- 4/1 Can you have a Ranch Horse and a Dressage Horse? Over the course of the last ten to fifteen years I have had the amazing good fortune to get to know and study with one our current Master Horsemen, Ms. Bettina Drummond. As a student of Nuno Oliveria, a scholar in the subject of Classical Dressage, and a perpetual seeker of a deep relationship with her horses, Bettina’s knowledge is unequalled. In 2012 she came out West with her Quarterhorse stallion to acquaint him with his “Western” heritage and to further her study of the comparisons between Classical Dressage and true Vaquero traditions and training. I had a marvelous time riding the mountains of eastern Oregon, playing with cows, and having long discussions with Bettina in comparing our western horsemanship jobs and relationships with our horses with her background in true Classical Dressage. One of my over-arching goals was to seek an answer to the question of whether or not I could bring along my horses to accomplish the jobs necessary on the ranch, but still adhere to the principles of the Classical Dressage training scale. (i.e. Note these aspects vary slightly in order and have different interpretations given differences in languages: Rhythm, Suppleness/Relaxation, Contact, Straightness, Engagement/Impulsion, and Collection) See articles regarding use of the Training Scale at: www.tnthorsemanship.com/articles Now I am by no means a scholar regarding the bio-mechanics required of the horse/human team to accomplish any job on the ranch or on the dressage court.

  • USET Foundation NEWS
    USET Foundation NEWS UNITED STATES EQUESTRIAN TEAM FOUNDATION • VOLUME 14, ISSUE 3 • WINTER 2015 FOUNDATION SUPPORT Grants Athletes’ Team Dreams Competing at the top of equestrian sport and bringing home medals takes more than just drive and dedication in the modern era of show jumping, dressage and eventing. The financial commitment of competition has become prohibitive for some athletes, but thanks to the generous donors at the USET Foundation, riders like Callan Solem, Laura Graves and Matthew Brown have been able to reach their goals through grants and funding, bring- ing home top honors for the United States. SHOW JUMPING Callan Solem In equestrian sport, all junior riders dream of making it to the top of the sport and competing at the Grand Prix level, but the say- ing “it takes a village,” truly applies for the nation’s top show jump- ers. Callan Solem began her riding career as a working student for Carol Thompson, who recognized Solem’s talent and passion for the sport right away. With a dedication to her job and a love for the horses, Solem became the professional rider for Thompson in 1997, and in 2010 began riding for Virginia and Collin McNeil. Over the years, Solem has earned multiple top placings at some of the country’s biggest events, and has represented the United States at Nations Cup competitions in Europe and Mexico. But to be a part of the U.S. Show Jumping Team, it has taken more than just talent and dedication; it has taken the support of organi- zations like the USET Foundation.
