ORDER OF GO: We are being asked to arrange to have the horses presented in the following order:
STALLIONS..so that if the judges want to see a Central Proving Candidate back again, they can be told in advance, and seen again the same day.
MARES
REPEAT MARES
GELDINGS
REPEAT GELDING
YEARLINGS

COLTS
HEIGHT CERTIFICATE: There has been allot of confusion regarding this issue.
The judges WILL BE MEASURING HORSES at the Kuering sites
YOU MUST STAY with your horses AT THE KUERING SITE until AFTER ALL CLASSES of stallions, geldings, mares and repeat mares and have gone then have your horse measured by the judges.
(usually at noon but often at the end of the Kuering day)
the height certificate IS ONLY for people that left a Kuering site with their horses after it has been presented without staying for measurements. WITHOUT a height.... registration papers and or Ster statues cannot be issued.
So unless you took a horse for studbook or Ster last year and there was a change to the horses papers, and you left before measuring. you do not have to fill out the height certificate.
HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS: ( Minimum Heights for each category, your guessed it if you don't meet that height your horse will not be allowed into that category)
STUDBOOK Mare or Gelding 150 cm/14.3hh
STAR, Mare/Gelding/Stallion 155 cm/15.1hh
MODEL MARE/3 YEAR APPROV. STALLION: 158 cm/15.2 1/4 hh
APPROV. STALLION 4 to 4+ 160cm/ 15.3hh
BODY CLIPPING: DO NOT body clip your horse, to read what is allowable in clipping and cutting please go under "Friesian Questions" on this website.
SHOES: you may present your horse shod or un shod but it must be all four shod or all four barefoot. No Corrective shoeing or pads. Clips are fine. Bare foot horses should, be even and presented with good condition hoofs, I suggest a recent manicure :-)STALLIONS: can be shod or un shod, above rules apply, however stallion shown with shoes will have some of there measured height removed, at the discretion of the judges to account for the shoes added height.
