VETERINARY PROCEDURE Veterinary Surgeons appointed by the Auctioneers are available through the Auctioneers Office to examine horses on behalf of Vendors and Purchasers. In the case of Purchasers, they are prepared to examine horses on their behalf as to whether they are correct under the “Conditions of Sale”. The Veterinary Surgeon’s decision that a horse be returnable is binding on both parties. All horses should be vetted for eyes, heart, action, age and ascertainment of catalogue descriptions for a fee of £65.00 inc 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. Please note all the heights stated in the catalogue are approximate. Purchasers 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. It is emphasised that the facilities are not available to undertake a full veterinary examination but part veterinary examination should take place. Only Lots that are examined by the panel on the sale day have an extended period of 2 working days (Including Saturdays) to enable complete veterinary examination. For the purpose of Conditions only - The Purchaser is described as the person who makes payment for the Lot on Day of Sale and whose name and address is entered on the Receipted Account.

The Auctioneer may at the Auctioneer’s sole discretion allow the Buyer to take delivery of the horse upon the tender by the Buyer or on his behalf of a cheque in the full amount of the price. (6) The Buyer, subject to payment in full, must take possession of the horse within 1 hour of the completion of the Sale. (7) In the event that the horse is not sold, the Seller shall take back the horse from the Sale premises within 1 hour of the completion of the Sale. (8) The Buyer authorizes the Seller and the Auctioneer as agent for the Seller to enter upon the Buyer’s land to take collection of any horse in respect of which the Buyer has taken delivery but for which the Buyer has not paid in full. 7. RETURNED HORSES (1) The Buyer may return lots to the Seller if the Buyer of any lot sold with a pedigree establishes that the pedigree is inaccurate. (2) Subject to Condition Eight, the Buyer may return Lots to the Seller in accordance with the Complaints Procedure if the Buyer establishes that the description given in the catalogue in respect of a horse is inaccurate. (3) Lots may be returned by the Buyer to the Seller subject to the Complaints Procedure set out below if the horse: (i) is a wind-sucker (i.e. swallows air whether in association with grasping fixed objects with incisor teeth or not); a crib-biter is not returnable unless the crib biting is associated with wind sucking, in which case the Lot is returnable as a wind-sucker (ii) is a weaver (iii) exhibits box walking (iv) has been tubed, fired, unnerved or operated upon for unsoundness of any other kind (v) a male horse (other than a foal, a yearling before the 1st July of its yearling year) which does not have two testes fully descended to and fully palpable within the scrotum at the time of the Sale is or shall be deemed to be a rig or cryptorchid (vi) Fails to load on the Sale Day in a reasonable and acceptable way in a purpose constructed lorry or trailer (vii) Is a pacer/trotter, Standardbred horse and if the horse has not been described as such in the catalogue or verbally by the Auctioneer at time of sale. 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 The Sale catalogue may contain additional special conditions of sale which may prevail over the aforementioned. BRIGHTWELLS LTD
