Every Exhibitor of Livestock or Horses shall be liable to pay the HAS a sum not exceeding £100 and for liquidated damages, if any animal sent for exhibition is, in the opinion of any of the Show Veterinary Officers, affected with any contagious or infectious disease including ringworm, or with any form of disease likely to prove dangerous or detrimental to other animals and for each and every such case, if more than one. The aforesaid animal(s) will be disqualified and subject to movement restrictions must be removed immediately from the Showground.

The Society will not tolerate the administration to show exhibits (entered either for competition or sale/demonstration) of tranquillisers or other drugs which may in any way affect the performance of the animal in question to have the effect of making it behave in the show ring in a manner which is not natural.

Any Person or Exhibitor (or his representative) who is found to have administered or permitted the administration of any such tranquilliser or drugs to any Show exhibit will be reported to the Organising Committee, and dealt with at their discretion. In addition the matter will be referred to the appropriate Breed Society or Organisation.

Any artificial contrivance or device of any description found on or proved to have been used on an animal at any time whilst that animal is in the Showground, either for preventing the flow of milk or for any other improper purpose, will disqualify that animal from being awarded a prize, and any prize awarded prior to discovery will be forfeited. The Instigator or the Owner of the said animal may be prohibited from again entering stock for any of the Society's Shows, for such period as the Committee may see fit. For the purpose of this Regulation, the term 'improper practice' shall be held to include setting of teats, and generally any other practice including tampering or of their own or any other animal by the exhibitor or any other person which results in the animals being shown other than in a natural state, and the Society reserves the right to have all animals inspected by the Society's Veterinary Officers, either prior to, during, or after judging.

All Exhibitors or their staff acting in opposition to this rule shall forfeit such prizes as may be awarded to their exhibits. The Judges are instructed to withhold any prizes where the entry is not of sufficient merit. In all cases where the prizes are offered conditionally, they may be withheld until the Exhibitor has proved to the satisfaction of the HAS that the conditions have been complied with.

Joint protests will only be accepted if accompanied by a deposit from each individual who is lodging a complaint. The protest will be considered and investigated by a panel appointed by the HAS, whose decision shall be final and from which there shall be no appeal. If the protest is not substantiated, the deposit will be forfeited.

ALTERATION OF AWARDS 28. In case of any protest or otherwise, whereby any prize animal becomes disqualified, the winner of the next succeeding prize in that class shall take the prize that has been awarded to such disqualified animal. All other prize winners will then move up the order.

PENALTIES 29. An infringement of any of these or any other prescribed Regulations or Conditions will subject the Exhibitor to the forfeiture of any prize to which they may be entitled (in addition to all other consequences attaching to such infringement).

Doping: The presence in any form or quantity, in a Horse being shown, of a substance, which could by its nature affect its performance, is forbidden. Breed Societies may cause tests to be carried out at any affiliated show, or otherwise, to determine whether this condition has been breached; the findings whereof shall be forwarded to the Breed Society for action.
