HORSES

Horses can be sourced for Western Australia, Tasmania, Northern Territory and New
Zealand as required. These players will be required to bring their own equipment to fit out these horses ie : saddle , saddlecloth, bridle (these may be provided with horse ) reins, noseband , headcheck, bandages, bellboots etc.

COST

Junior Mixed :

The cost per player supplying their own horse – ie VIC / NSW / QLD / SA will be $100 per Player.

The cost per player from the states requiring horses will be $200.

This has been instigated due to the high cost of hosting this event – loan horses / feed /
veterinary / farrier / insurance etc.

The fee will be invoiced to each respective State and is to be paid to AHPC by the STATE.

The fee per player will be $15.00 ( as in previous years )
