All horses are subject to vet checks prior to beginning the ride each day, during ride holds and at the conclusion of the ride. Any horse may be pulled from competition by the ride veterinarian for lameness or metabolic issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>

\u00a0<\/h4>

Riders may also choose to Rider Option (RO) if the ride vet has not pulled the horse as riders know their equine partners best and our sport is about the horse\u2019s health and well-being coming before all other considerations.<\/span><\/h4>
