VAT, unless when they are sold for £400 or less, when they are then sold “as seen” with no veterinary
warranty or guarantee as to catalogue description implied or given.

and receive a vetting slip to enable examination to take place.

an extended period of 2 working days (Including Saturdays) to enable complete veterinary examination.

(iii) exhibits box walking
(iv) has been tubed, fired, unnerved or operated upon for unsoundness of any other kind

8. VETERINARY PROCEDURE
All lots are sold subject to veterinary examination unless sold for £400 or less, or otherwise stated. Veterinary surgeons
are available to examine lots as to whether they are correct under the Conditions of Sale. The veterinary surgeon’s
decision that a lot be returnable is binding on both parties. All lots should be vetted for eyes, heart, action, age and
ascertainment of catalogue descriptions for a fee of £65.00 including VAT. Buyers must notify the office that they require
examination within 1 hour of the time of purchase and receive a vetting slip to enable examination to take place. Sellers
must check the veterinary board displayed in the Sales Office to see if their lot must be presented for veterinary
examination. Sellers should not leave the Sale Site without first checking the vetting board. ALL LOTS NOT EXAMINED BY
THE VETERINARY SURGEON ON THE SALE DAY WILL NOT BE COVERED BY A VETERINARY WARRANTY.
It is emphasised that the facilities are not available to undertake a full veterinary examination on the day of the Sale, but
part veterinary examination should take place. This part examination should include examination for warts, sarcoids or
sarcoid-like lesions, which can only be complained about on the day of sale. Only lots that are examined by the panel of
Veterinary Surgeons appointed by the Auctioneers on the day of the Sale have an extended two working days (including
Saturdays) to enable complete veterinary examination. For the full veterinary procedure please see the sales catalogue.
(1) The Seller agrees that a horse shall be sold subject to veterinary examination.
(2) If a horse is sold subject to veterinary examination, the Buyer should submit the horse for part veterinary examination
on the day of the Sale within one hour of the fall of hammer.
(3) The sale catalogue shall set out the procedure to be followed by the Buyer on submitting the horse for part veterinary
examination on the day of the Sale.
(4) The purpose of the veterinary examination is to check the accuracy of the physical description of the horse given in
the catalogue. The examination will not cover the matters referred to in condition 7(3) above save that the veterinary
examination will be conclusive in relation to the “potential” of the horse.
(5) At the end of the veterinary examination, the Veterinary Surgeon will provide the Buyer with a certificate stating that
the horse does or does not comply with the physical description of the horse given in the catalogue.
(6) In the event that the Sale day or post Sale Veterinary Certificate states that the horse does not comply with the
physical description given in the catalogue, the Buyer shall not be liable to pay the price for the horse and is entitled to
the return of any deposit that may have been paid by the Buyer.
(7) In the event that a Buyer fails to avail himself of a veterinary examination on the day of a Sale, the Buyer cannot
thereafter make complaint of matters, which would have been covered by a veterinary examination.
9. LIABILITY OF THE AUCTIONEER
(1) The Auctioneer acts as agent of the Seller and the Auctioneer gives no warranties of any kind to the Buyer
(2) The Auctioneer does not accept any liability for:(i) The description or pedigree of the horse given in the catalogue.
(ii) The physical condition or performance of the horse sold.
(iii) The payment of the price by the buyer.
(iv) The return of any horse by the buyer to the Seller.
(v) The administration of the Complaints Procedure beyond the appointment of any arbitrator in accordance therewith.
10. COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE
(1) The Buyer shall notify the Auctioneer if the Buyer claims to be entitled to return a horse to the Seller in accordance
with condition 7 above or for any other reason orally by 5.00pm on the fourth day following the Sale.
(2) The Buyer shall follow up this oral notification to the Auctioneer with written notification to the Auctioneer to be
received by the Auctioneer within seven days from the date of the Sale. The written notification by the Buyer to the
Auctioneer shall set out the grounds upon which the Buyer claims to be entitled to return the horse to the Seller.
(3) Where appropriate, the Buyer shall submit, along with his written notification, a Veterinary Certificate confirming any
matters in respect of which complaint is made. The failure to submit a Veterinary Certificate in circumstances where such
a certificate is appropriate will mean that the Buyer’s complaint will not be further entertained and the Buyer shall pay
the price for the horse in full.
(4) In the event that the Buyer fails to make oral or written notification of his complaint within the above timescales, the
Buyer shall not be allowed to return the horse to the Seller but must make payment for the horse in full unless the buyer
can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Auctioneer that it was not reasonably practicable for the Buyer to discover
the complaint and to notify the Auctioneer of the same within the above timescales. However, in no circumstances
whatsoever may the above time limits be extended beyond a period of 14 days after the date of the Sale.
(5) On receipt of a written complaint together, where appropriate, with a Veterinary Certificate, the Auctioneer shall
send a copy of the complaint and the Veterinary Certificate to the Seller and the Auctioneer shall appoint a suitable
person to act as Arbitrator. The task of the Arbitrator will be to examine and determine the complaint. The name of the
person appointed by the Auctioneer to act as Arbitrator shall be notified by the Auctioneer to the Seller and the Buyer.
The Auctioneer shall thereafter have no further responsibility in respect of the Complaint Procedure.
(6) The Examination and resolution of the complaint shall be under the control of the Arbitrator and the Seller and Buyer
shall comply with all directions that may be given by the Auctioneer in respect of the complaint.
(7) The Arbitrator may require, before proceeding to examine and determine the complaint that the Arbitrator’s fees
and expenses shall be paid in advance. The Seller and Buyer shall thereupon each pay one-half of the sum stipulated by
the Arbitrator.
(8) The Arbitrator may direct that the horse shall be subject to such trial as he may direct and the Seller and Buyer shall
lend their full cooperation to such a trial.
(9) If either the Seller or the buyer fail to comply with a direction of the Arbitrator or fail to pay any sum ordered to be
paid by the Arbitrator, then the Arbitrator may at his own discretion decide not to proceed with the examination and
determination of the complaint and may, if the Seller is in default, order that horse be returned to the Seller or may, if
the Buyer is in default, order that the Buyer pay the full price to the Seller.
(10) Upon the determination of the complaint, the Arbitrator may at his discretion order that the unsuccessful party pay
to the other all the costs and expenses associated with the Complaints Procedure.
11. HARD HATS
Any person riding an animal at the Sale Premises must wear a hard riding hat of an approved standard.
12. SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF SALE
