 Class Limits: Halter - 3 horses per class. Performance - 2 entries per class. The OF Test/VLR, Lakeshore, China, and Hartland Divisions are allowed unlimited entries per class. **Note: In the case of excessively large classes, it is up to the judges discretion on whether a split is necessary.

 Class Rules: No setups are allowed in halter classes (towels or cloths may be used under models that need to be laid down). Once a model has been shown in a halter class; it may not be shown again in any other halter class.

 OF Halter Rules: IMPORTANT PLEASE READ Regular runs - variations as part of the run(25 mares/25 stallions or 15 glossy/35 matte); accidental variations/factory goofs such as no socks, blanket spots, glossy or semi-glossy; Connoisseur models; Artists proofs of regular run & Conn models; signed regular runs; designated runs over the test run/VLR limit.

 Test/VLRs - Production Runs of 40 and under are entered in this division. This includes, but is not limited to; Test Runs, OOAK Pieces, BF Prize Models that fit within the number restrictions, Volunteer, Congress, Show Special Runs that fit within the number restrictions. Stone Judges models if they anatomically *differ* from the Show Special Run; i.e. the Show SR is non-customized, but the judges model has a changed mane, tail, twitched ear, etc. If the Stone Judge's Model is simply a glossy or matte version of the Show Special Run, it will show in the regular OF Stone Classes.

 Collectability - All showers are urged to place an informational card by their model if they want it judged on collectability. There will be blank index cards available to put collectability info on if you need them. If you fail to include collectability info by your horse it is not the judges responsibility to look up or verify a models collectability.

 Tags: Front of tags should have only the model's entry number, breed and gender showing (name is optional). See example at right, XXX being your number, 001 being your horse's number. Only this side should be where the judge can see it. Back of tags may have your name and the horse's name so you can ID them. You can look up your show entrant number on the EMCAT web page at http://starhold.150m.com/numbers.htm or ask Daralyn Wallace for one if you don't already have one.
