The aim of the Tattersalls Ireland / Treo Eile Showing Pathway Series is to identify racehorses which are judged to have transitioned to be suitable riding horses. The horses entered in the classes should demonstrate good movement, rideability and correct conformation. To be judged as a hunter class.
- Horses competing in the Tattersalls Ireland / Treo Eile Showing Pathway Series, must be registered with Treo Eile (FREE on www.treoeile.com/register). The number of horses registered supports Treo Eile’s fundraising efforts and allows for more sponsorship towards ex-racehorse competitions.
- All entries must have a Weatherbys or equivalent racing authority passport. The passport must be available for checking at the show.
- Horses must be entered using the name as per the Weatherbys or equivalent racing authority passport.
- The first and second prize winners in the Novice and the Open class at each qualifier, will qualify for the final. In the case where the first and/or second placed horse has already qualified, the next placed horse may qualify for the final at the judges discretion.
- Combinations may only compete in one section (either Novice or Open) at the final of the Tattersalls Ireland Treo Eile Showing Pathway series. A Novice combination that has qualified for the final, and also wins an Open qualifier throughout the series, must compete in the Open section of the Treo Eile Pathway series final.
