Veterinary Procedure
All horses are sold subject to veterinary re-examination as per condition 8, sold as they stand as per condition 9 or sold subject to veterinary examination of wind only as per condition 10.
If a horse is sold subject to veterinary examination or veterinary examination of wind only, then the purchaser must request that the horse be examined by the veterinary panel on the day of sale. This examination is £150.00 including VAT.
Purchasers must notify the office that they require examination within 1 hour of the time of purchase.
If the purchaser fails to take advantage of the sale day veterinary examination then they cannot thereafter make complaint of matters, which would have been covered by the sale day veterinary examination.
If the horse is sold as it stands then no veterinary warranty is implied or given and the purchaser is to rely upon their own judgement in relation to a horses soundness and fitness for the purpose they are purchasing it for.
Horse Passports
Passports must travel to the sale with the entry and will be surrendered to the auctioneers on arrival at the stable office. This passport will be given to the new purchaser or returned to the vendor if not sold.
Vaccinations
All horses attending the sale must be fully vaccinated against Equine Influenza in accordance with Jockey Club requirements.
Delivery and Stabling
All lots will have stabling available from 2.00pm until gates close at 10.00pm on the day prior to sale and from 7.00am on the day of sale. Bedding is provided, however vendors must provide water buckets, mangers and all fodder. We regret stabling is not available for horses not entered in this sale.
