Final Inspections Under Time Limited Amnesty
The CPBS introduced an amnesty for the uninspected progeny of Class 3 parents on 1st March 2024, which allows for these ponies to be presented for inspection and to be classified according to the Studbook rules.
The purpose of this amnesty is to draw in breeding lines which may have been otherwise lost. The amnesty registration period is from 1st March 2024 until 31st October 2025 inclusive and owners of such progeny can present them for classification at the regular inspections organised by the Society between those dates.
This amnesty will cease following inspections in the Autumn of 2025
As of 2026, with the exception of geldings, both parents must be entered in Class 1, Class 2 or Class Over Height to be eligible for inspection.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Closing Dates
Eight working days prior to the event or earlier if they reach full capacity.
No late applications will be accepted.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gelding Classifications
If you wish to have your gelding classified, they must now be presented at filly inspection for measurement as per our newly revised Breeding Programme. Geldings are reclassified according to their height only and require no mandatory visual inspection, linear profiling nor to be tested for HWSD.
Only measurements that are conducted on behalf of the CPBS at official inspections are recognised, measurements from other competition bodies or private measurements are not recognised by the CPBS.
If you wish to have your gelding inspected, please call the office on 095 21863 or email [email protected] before submitting your application.
