Al Faresi, who was lying 13th at the end of the first day, bettered his standings on Friday to start the final day in the third place.

Riding on 11-year-old Ohio, Al Faresi began the gruelling final day to move into the second place in the first 30km first stage.

But he lost pace and slipped to third place in the second 30km stage to Thani Mohammad Al Muhairi on Akasha Sensation.

Al Faresi, however, gathered pace in the final stage of 20km riding at an average speed of 24kmph to overtake the top two to ride away with the title

Al Faresi covered the total distance in nine hours, 57 minutes and 42 seconds.

Ali Mohammed Al Muhairi, his trainer-cum-rider, said: “This was Al Faresi’s second win and Ohio’s first. The long distance race is different and one must utilise good tactics to achieve good results.”

Omair Hussain Al Belsoushi, astride Oh-Jay, finished in nine hours, 58 minutes and 42 seconds for the second spot while Ali Mohammad Al Muhairi, riding Gazyl Al Sundari, sealed the third place with a total time of 10 hours, one minute and two seconds.

Iqbal Khan Allauddin Khan, leader on the first two days, failed to qualify in the eighth phase.

In the 120km Sheikh Sultan Bin Zayed Al Nayhan Endurance Festival for Junior and Young Riders, Rashed Ahmed Al Bloushi emerged the winner after covering the distance on Silversprings Kabir Arwa in a time of four hours, 47 minutes and 48 seconds.

Abdullah Rashid Mohammed Al Naqbi finished second in a time of four hours, 48 minutes and 26 seconds atop Braka Sidi-Ifni, while Mohammed Hassan Al Hammadi riding Coolaroo Jubal was third.

The CEI 1-star 80km ride was won by Rachel Harriet Harvey on Caramelo in a time of three hours, 27 minutes and 24 seconds. Shamsad Alam Mohammed Zaid took second place on Tres Jolie Endurance (3:47.42) and Michelle du Plessis on Pindarem finished third (3:53.14).

The three-day festival was organised by the Emirates Heritabe Club, in co-operation with the Emirates Equestrain Federation and held under the patronage of Sheikh Sultan Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Representative of the President and Chairman of Emirates Heritage Club.

ATHLETE’S GUIDE

2011-05-17T10:37:00.003+08:00

WHY THIS GUIDE?

This guide is written for the Athlete to help understand the key

provisions of the new Equine Anti-Doping and controlled Medication

regulations. Legal rules are technical and can be quite confusing for

the non-lawyer. But in order to create a regulation system that has

integrity, is legally sound, and will protect the Athlete’s rights, some

amount of legal complexity cannot be avoided. So this guide is for

you – no legal jargon or confusing concepts – just the explanations

that Athletes really need to know.

WHAT'S IN A NAME?

The name of this new system of regulations governing equine

doping and medication control is the “Equine Anti-Doping and

controlled Medication (“EADcM”) regulations”. We know it is

long and perhaps hard to remember, but we are really not trying

to make it confusing. The long name is necessary to accurately

explain what is in the regulations, since they include both the

rules on doping control and the rules on medication control. In the

EADcM regulations, anything prohibited in competition, no matter

how the substance is classified, is called a “Prohibited Substance”.

Doping substances, which have no place in equine sport are called

“Banned Substances,” while medication substances that are

commonly used in equine medicine but prohibited in competition,

are called “controlled Medication Substances”. An easy way to think

of these two groups is “Banned Substances” are “above the line”

and constitute doping while controlled Medication Substances

are “below the line” because they are commonly used in equine practice, even though they are prohibited in competition. Over

time the largest category of positive cases during competition have

usually been Medication Substances, so be careful. The EADcM

regulation book contains the Equine Anti-Doping (“EAD”) rules

as its first chapter, while the second chapter contains the Equine

controlled Medication (“EcM”) rules. So think of it as one rule book

with two parts, which together form the EADcM regulation system.

To recap :

EADCM Regulations : The entire regulation system including both

doping and medication control .

Prohibited Substances : Any substance that is not allowed in a

horse’s system during competition.

Banned Substances : Doping or “above the line” substances.

Controlled Medication Substances : Medication or “below the

line” substances.

WHAT ARE MY RESPONSIBILITIES?

As an Athlete, you have a responsibility to know, understand, and

follow the EADCM regulations. But you do not have to be a legal

expert to have this basic understanding. If you are the rider, driver,

or vaulter of the horse, then you are the Person responsible for

the horse that will be held accountable for an EADcM regulation

violation. This is true even if you are riding, driving, or vaulting a

borrowed horse ! Therefore, you need to be very careful about

who you trust to care for your horses and even more so who you

trust to treat your horses. In the case of a borrowed horse, you

should make sure you are comfortable with the horse’s treating

history before competing with it. In the regulations, if a member

of your support personnel does something that leads to an EADcM

regulation violation, that person may be held accountable, but so

will you. For example, if you rely on your veterinarian who tells you

that a substance can be used on your horse without violating any

rules, and later you find out that your horse has tested positive for

a Prohibited Substance, you will be in violation of the rules even

though you were relying on your veterinarian. Similarly, if a groom

who is working for you mistakenly gives one of your competition

horses medication intended for an ill horse and the competition

horse later tests positive, you will be in violation of the regulations

(and your groom may be also.)

WHAT IF I WOULd LIKE TO GIVE MY HORSE A CONTROLLED

MEDICATION BUT I STILL WANT TO COMPETE ?

If your horse needs medication and is scheduled to compete soon,

you must discuss the options with your treating/team veterinarian.

Different substances take different times to clear from the horse’s

system. If several drugs are used at the same time the detection

periods can often be unpredictable and longer. Your horse must be

“clean” at the time of competition to avoid violating the regulations.

If your horse was treated during transport to an event or close to

competition or you have any doubt as to whether a substance is

still present in the horse’s system, you must report this immediately

upon arrival at the show to the relevant Veterinary Official and

request permission to compete by arranging for your treating/

team veterinarian to complete and sign the appropriate Equine

Therapeutic Use Exemption (“ETUE”) which will be subject to review

by the appropriate Veterinary Official present prior to approval. Do

not expect that if you submit an ETUE, it will be automatically

accepted. If your horse needs veterinary assistance or treatment at

an event, your treating/team veterinarian must request permission

and approval from the Veterinary Official before administering the

medication. The appropriate ETUE must then be completed and

sent to the FEI. You should know that ETUEs are only available for

controlled Medication and not for Banned Substances.

WHAT IS THE "STRICT LIABILITY" PRINCIPLE

Under the EADcM regulations, the Person responsible is strictly

liable whenever a Prohibited Substance is found in a horse’s sample.

This means that it is a violation whether or not the Person responsible

intentionally or unintentionally, knowingly or unknowingly, used a

Prohibited Substance or was negligent or otherwise at fault. It is

also irrelevant whether the Prohibited Substance actually had a

performance-enhancing effect. It is very important therefore for the

Person responsible to understand not only what is prohibited, but

also what might potentially cause an inadvertent violation. Even

though this strict liability principle exists, the Person responsible

will always have the opportunity to explain why he or she is not

at fault and the circumstances surrounding what happened will

always be taken into consideration when determining sanction

(suspension and/or fine). But the strict liability principle means

that disqualification of the horse/rider combination for the Event in

which the horse tested positive is automatic even if you can prove,

and everyone agrees, that you were not at fault.

WHAT IS THE EQUINE PROHIBITED SUBSTANCE LIST

Most medicines and drugs are prohibited if detected in a horse at the

time of competition. This concept is based on the FEI’s philosophy

that a horse should compete on its own merits without any unfair

advantage that might follow the use of drugs. Therefore, the Equine

Prohibited Substances List (the “List”) identifies all of the substances

that are not allowed in competition and indicates whether they

will be treated as a Banned Substance or a controlled Medication

Substance. You should know that any substances that have the same

biological or chemical effect as a Prohibited Substance are similarly

prohibited, just as if they were already on the List, even if they are

not named. This is to prevent Athletes from administering to their

horses substances produced by pharmaceutical companies that are

practically identical to a Prohibited Substance, but with only one or

two atoms changed just to avoid violating the EADcM regulations.

It would not be fair to ignore substances like those because it would

encourage cheating and be unfair to the vast majority of Athletes

who compete fairly. New substances can be added to the List at any

time, but will not lead to an EADcM regulation violation until they

have been on the List for at least ninety (90) days.

IS THE FEI PROHIBITED SUBSTANCES LIST DIFFRENT FROM WHAT I WILL

NEED TO FOLLOW FOR NATIONAL COMPETITIONS?

With the introduction of these new EADcM regulations, the

same List will eventually apply for international and national

competitions. (Some National Federations are obligated to adopt the FEI List by January 2011, while others have until January 2012.

Please consult your own NF for clarification.) The hope and

expectation is that this will improve clarity and ease of competition

for Athletes.
