LIST OF CLASSES

EXHIBITORS PLEASE NOTE:

Unless animals are entered in the Catalogue and on a signed entry form they will not be

allowed in the Show

Important notice to Animal Owners who are involved in Showing their animals

The Irish Shows Association would advise all Animal owners who have their Animals

Insured to have the Insurance cover extended to cover them while showing animals at

Shows. We understand that it cost very little or nothing at all depending on whom you have

Insurance cover with..

The reason for us giving this advice is to protect yourself in the event of your animal

lashing out and injuring someone or damaging someone’s property, if that were to

happen and it is established that your animal was out of your control you may be held

responsible, or partly responsible for any injury or damage caused and end up paying all or

part of any settlement reached.

(Rule 20 applies all the way through except where stated)

Competitors may enter animals in any class for which they are eligible, but any animal that

obtains a First Prize cannot be exhibited in any other class at the Show. They shall, however,

be eligible to compete for a Special Prize. All numbers must be attached to animals before

judging commences, if not, no prize money will be awarded. Exhibitors are responsible for

their exhibits at all times while they are on show grounds

Section 1 - HORSES & PONIES

All foals must be haltered and led by an adult on their own I.H.R. Number, name of sire and

dam must appear on Entry Form

Premises Registration

As from 1 May 2012, any premises (which includes shows, fairs and markets) where horses

or other equines are gathered must be registered with the Department. Owners/persons in

charge of such gatherings are required to submit a completed application form for registration

and to keep records of movements on/off their premises.

Records required are

The name and address of the owner/person in charge of the premises from which the

equine came;

The premises registration number from which the equine came and

Passport number/UEL number of the animal

It is important therefore that Show organisers should contact their local District Veterinary

Office in advance so that consideration can be given to compliance with the requirements

outlined above.

Equine Identification

All Equines (which include horses, ponies and donkeys) must be identified in accordance

with EU and national legislation.

Possession of an unidentified equine is an offence under the legislation.

Passport must be issued by approved Passport Issuing Organisations [PIOs] within the

calendar year of birth [by 31 December in the year of birth] or within six months of

birth [whichever is later] and is valid for the lifetime of the animal. A list of the PIOs

is set out in Appendix 1.

Microchip - all equines issued with a passport after 1st July 2009 must have a

corresponding microchip implanted by a veterinarian which is recorded in the

passport and creates a link between the passport and the animal.

A Keeper must

Have an equine registered with a PIO

Have a passport issued in accordance with EU and national legislation

Comply with the provisions of the legislation whereby a passport must accompany the

equine whenever it is moved to events such as shows, sales and to slaughter plants,

etc.

4. IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR EXHIBITORS OF CATTLE 2013

The following changes are being introduced for keepers of bovine animals who wish to

show cattle. Keepers of cattle are now required to obtain a Certificate of Compliance

prior to the movement of an animal to a Show.

Certificates of Compliance can be obtained online from the Animal Identification and

Movement (AIM) system through the www.agfood.ie facility or from the Cattle

Movement

Notification Agency. When applying for a Certificate of Compliance, keepers should not

specify a destination herd. On the day of the Show, the Certificate of Compliance should

be

presented to the Show Secretary along with the bovine passport for the animal.

The keeper and the Show Secretary will then sign the Movement Notification section of

the Certificate which will then be sent to the local DVO for recording onto the AIM

system.

Please not that only cattle for which a valid Certificate of Compliance is provided to the

Show Secretary will be allowed to be shown on the day of the Show.

These Certificates will replace the previously-used CMMS 4 forms.

5. Record movements both out of and into your herd in your Bovine Herd Register. For

outward movements enter “Ownership Retained” in the ‘Remarks’ column (column 9) of

the Register.

authorities in Northern Ireland and the show contact their local DVO for guidelines further

The following passage to be written in ordinary script:

The Book of Kells (sometimes known as the Book of Columba) is an illuminated manuscript Gospel

book in Latin, containing the four Gospels of the New Testament together with various prefatory

texts and tables. It is a masterwork of Western calligraphy and represents the pinnacle of Insular

illumination. It is also widely regarded as Ireland's finest national treasure.

The manuscript today comprises 340 folios and, since 1953, has been bound in four volumes. The

leaves are on high-quality calf vellum.The script of the text itself appears to be the work of at least

three different scribes. The lettering is in iron gall ink, and the colours used were derived from a wide

range of substances, many of which were imports from distant lands.The manuscript takes its name

from the Abbey of Kells that was its home for centuries. Today, it is on permanent display at

the Trinity College Library, Dublin. The library usually displays two of the current four volumes at a

time.

She walks among the meadow grass

And eats the meadow flowers.
