A presidential modification in the application of EQ118.16(e)1 has been granted for the 2006 competition year. This presidential modification changes the previous restriction that required nine-year-old riders to canter if they had already shown in the walk/trot division for two competition years in the 10 & Under UPHA Challenge Cup Championship. The rule as it will apply for the 2006 competition year reads:

10 & Under Walk/Trot Challenge Cup. Open to riders 10 years of age and under. A walk and trot rider must canter after the beginning of their nine-year-old competition year if they have shown in as many as three competition years in that division.

If you have any questions regarding this presidential modification, please contact the Federation's Breeds & Western Department at (859) 225-6986.
