HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS, please refer to to heights posted on www.FHANA.com
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 YOUR HORSE IS MEASURED.
(usually Prior to the class)
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.
ORDER OF GO: (MIGHT BE AS LISTED HERE, OR COULD CHANGE AND BE IN REVERSE ORDER, will be determined by the judges and annouced the morning of the show) STALLIONS and IBOP will always Stay First.
