CHANGE OF VENUE FOR THE BREED SHOW

This new rule comes into force from January 1st 2025
Showing Rule 2 - ELIGIBILITY FOR SHOWING
(e) To ensure fairness, integrity and impartiality in all BMHS competition regarding judge familiarity, individual members must not compete under any BMHS panel judge with whom they have a personal or professional relationship that could reasonably be perceived as a conflict of interest. This includes, but is not limited to:
(i) family members, close friends, or individuals with whom the member has a longstanding personal relationship.
(ii) individuals with whom the member or their family or those who live at the same address has a current or recent professional relationship, such as trainers, coaches or business associates.
(iii) any individual with whom the member or their family or those who live at the same address has had a financial or voluntary show related relationship in the current or previous three years.
Individual members must avoid situations in which the public, or other competitors, may perceive the judge’s selection to be influenced, either consciously or sub-consciously, by prior familiarity with the participant or their horse.
This rule is to ensure all competitors receive fair and unbiased evaluation.
Members are required to comply with the spirit intended by this rule. Any infringement will result in automatic suspension of membership pending disciplinary action.
