DRUG TESTING

Revised Drug Testing Rules 2014

ATTENTION ALL HORSE COMPETITORS

THIS SHOW IS A MEMBER OF THE CENTRAL NORTHERN GROUP OF SHOW SOCIETIES AND THIS GROUP

UNDERTAKES A HORSE DRUG TESTING PROGRAM THAT HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED SINCE THE COMMENCEMENT

OF GROUP SHOWS IN 1991.

IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW THE RULES AND REGULATIONS REGARDING THIS DRUG TESTING PROGRAM

AND THIS SHOW OR THIS GROUP WILL NOT IN ANY WAY ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE

AND/OR UNDERSTANDING OF THIS SUBJECT.

IT IS A CONDITION OF ENTRY AT THIS SHOW THAT ALL HORSES COMPETING AT THIS SHOW, COMPETE ON THE

UNDERSTANDING THAT DRUG TESTING MAY BE CARRIED OUT AT THIS SHOW AND IF DRUGS ARE DETECTED

THEN PENALTIES WILL APPLY.

PROHIBITED DRUGS

It is the intention of these regulations that all animals shall perform on their merits without the aid of drugs which

will affect the conduct, performance, or appearance of the animal.

An exhibitor shall NOT administer and shall ensure that there shall NOT be administered to his/her exhibit any drug

or substance herein called a “prohibited drug”.

Prohibited drugs are substances originating externally whether or not they are endogenous to the animal and

means any substance capable of affecting the performance or behavior of an animal by its action upon the central

or peripheral nervous system, the cardiovascular system, the respiratory system, the alimentary digestive system,

the muscular-skeletal system or the urogenital system and shall include analgesics, anti-histamines, anti-

inflammatory agents, blood coagulants, diuretics, hormones, and their synthetic counterparts, cortico-steroids,

anabolic steroids, local anesthetics, muscle relaxants, tranquilizers, and vitamins.

The use of antibiotic substances (anti-viral, anti-microbial, anti-parasitic) with the exception of Procaine Penicillin

may be permitted.

In the Case of Showjumping and Dressage entries ONLY, which are conducted under FEI Rules, the use of

Phenylbutazone and Oxyphenylbutazone is permitted provided the maximum level of either or both does not

exceed 2 micrograms per millilitre of plasma, in aggregate, at the time at which the exhibit is to be judged.

The Society (or Group) may at its discretion cause an examination to be made of an exhibit by a Veterinary Officer

who in the course of such examination may make by such methods as he may determine such tests of and take

such samples from such exhibit, as he deems necessary or advisable. The result of the examination shall be

reported to the Group and the Society.

An exhibit to which, in the opinion of a Veterinary Officer, a prohibited Drug has been administered shall not be

exhibited without the consent of the Group and shall be removed from the showground forthwith upon notice

from the Group or Society.

The Group may at its sole discretion impose the penalties applicable in the light of all information made available

and may disallow or cancel the entry and any award made to the exhibit, without in such case being called upon to

give reason therefore.

The owner or any other person who was in charge of the animal to which a prohibited drug has been administered

will be disqualified and penalties shall apply.

Where samples have been taken from an exhibit by a Veterinary Officer and submitted for laboratory testing, the

following rules will apply:

(a) If the A sample has returned a positive result indicating the presence in the exhibit of a banned substance, then

the competitor will be immediately suspended from competition.

(b) The competitor will be entitled at the expense of the competitor to have a B sample tested at the laboratory

provided that the competitor gives notice in writing within 10 days of being notified of the result of the testing of

the A sample and provides with his notice payment for the cost of the testing of the B sample.

(d) If no B sample is tested in accordance with these rules, then the disqualification provision of these rules will

apply.

THE PENALITIES TO APPLY SHALL BE 12 months’ disqualification from exhibiting within this Group for the animal

and the person in charge of the animal. It will be recommended to the ASC that these penalties shall apply on a

state-wide level and that disqualification should be state-wide.

If the animal is not presented for examination within the time specified by the Group, then the same penalties shall

apply as if a Prohibited Drug was detected.

TREATMENT FORMS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Any person who at any time administers or causes to be administered for the purpose of affecting the performance

of an animal in any event or class at the Show, any drug as defined previously or has in his/her possession any

improper contrivance may be disqualified or otherwise penalised by the Group.

Particular attention will be paid to the detection of sedative and tranquiliser groups of drugs but analysis for all

classes of prohibited substances will be included. The collection of samples inter alia will always involve taking

urine and/or blood.

An examination may include an examination for desensitised limbs. Any animal found to have a limb or part of a

limb desensitised by any means will be considered to have competed under the influence of a prohibited substance

and penalised accordingly. The owner or his/her representative may be present during testing but shall not

interfere in any way with the conduct of the test and will observe the instructions of the Veterinary Officer on duty.

The Society or Group and any servant or appointee of the Society or Group shall not be liable to the exhibitor,

owner or other interested parties, for the death of, or for any injury, damage or infection which may be sustained

by an exhibit occasioned by or arising out of any act or omission of any servant, agent or appointee of the Society

or Group done or committed in the course of his/her examination whether due to the negligence of any such

servant, agent or appointee or otherwise.

Exhibitors must abide by the directions of the Society or Group as to the procedures to be followed for the

examination of their exhibit and failure to adhere to this direction shall incur the same penalties as if the

prohibited drugs were detected.

It is recommended that all horses are vaccinated for Hendra Virus.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, RELEASE & INDEMNITY

Each exhibitor, in consideration of the Society accepting one or more of the Exhibitor's entries:

a) acknowledges and agrees that the Exhibitor participates in any competition or event conducted during the Show

wholly and solely at the Exhibitor’s own risk of injury to his person of property; b) releases the Society and its

servants and agents at the time of participation, from and against any and all liability for personal injury or damage

to the exhibitor's property which the exhibitor may receive, sustain or incur directly or indirectly as a result of the

negligence or alleged negligence of the Society and its servants or agents aforesaid resulting from or arising out of

any accident or happening whilst the exhibitor is on the Society's Showground or elsewhere under the direct or

indirect control of the Society, its servants or agents whether or not such accident or happening occurred whilst

the exhibitor was participating in or competing in any event or competition and the exhibitor for himself, his

executors, administrators and any person claiming through or under him indemnifies and holds the Society, its

servants and agents aforesaid indemnified from and against all claims, demands, suits, actions, damages, costs and

expenses which the exhibitor or any person engaged by the exhibitor might be entitled to make or bring against or

which may become payable by the Society by reason of or arising from or out of directly or indirectly, any such

accident or happening or by reason of any act or omission on the part of the exhibitor or of any person engaged by

him whilst he is competing or attending to any exhibit entered by the exhibitor and the exhibitor further agrees

that any act or omission on his part or on the part of any such person engaged by him found in any action against

the Society to be negligent shall be deemed to be negligence for the purpose of any claim under the aforesaid

indemnity.

Guidelines for Shows Regarding Johne’s Disease

1. As of 3 November 2016, the Australian Johne’s Disease Market Assurance Program for Cattle (Cattle MAP) has transitioned to

Johne’s Beef Assurance Score (J-BAS). The scoring system is from 0 to 8 (0 being ‘Unmanaged risk’, 8 being ‘High assurance’).

There is also a Dairy Score with a similar range of scores that have been designed to line up directly (ie Dairy Score of 6 is

equivalent is to a JD risk of J-BAS 6). Although the J-BAS system is voluntary, the Dorrigo Show requires cattle being exhibited to

have a minimum J-BAS of 6.

2. If an exhibitor has a J-BAS score of 7 or 8, they will NOT lose their score when exhibiting at a showground that is scored at a 6 as

long as they use their own feed and water buckets and unused bedding/straw and animals are separately stalled.

3. A current Cattle Health Status Declaration, completed by exhibitor/exhibitor's agent, must accompany entry forms. Exhibitors’ J-

BAS is entered in Section 6 of this Declaration.

Show Day

1. Assessed and non-assessed cattle to be housed in separate buildings. If separate buildings not available a 2 to 3 metre space and

a wall or such is positioned between assessed and non-assessed cattle in the one building. This separation should be capable of

preventing traffic of stock, machinery, contaminated water, bedding, and feeding.

2. Cattle should be separate from eligible species (ie goats, alpacas & deer).

4. Animals should be individually fed and watered from above-ground facilities.

3. NB: There are NO common watering facilities.

5. Wash and tie-up rails for assessed and non-assessed cattle should be separated.

6. Calves to be tethered at all times.

7. Chief Steward and Stewards of the Cattle Section have full authority and control of rules in conjunction with the Minimum Risk

requirements at the Show.

8. Entrants need to state where/which property the animals came from.

Pestivirus clearance declaration must clearly indicate animals tested and date.

Section 18: The Sydney Royal AgShows Young

Woman of the Year Competition

Chief Steward: Jade Taylor (0477 725 417)

The Dorrigo and Guy Fawkes Agricultural Show Society invites young women between the ages of 18 and 25 years (before 1 May

2024) to enter the Dorrigo Young Woman of the Year Competition, formally known as the showgirl competition. The Young

Woman of the Year Competition seeks a young woman to represent Dorrigo and the Dorrigo Show. It is not a beauty pageant-

the purpose of the competition is to identify ambassadors to promote Agricultural shows across New South Wales. The program

is designed to develop regional young women, to benefit the individual, the local show society, and their communities. Each

Entrant will be assessed on her general knowledge, confidence, personality, ambition, life goals and deportment.

This year's successful Entrant was announced in October and will have the opportunity to attend the Zone Final to be held in

Tamworth in February 2024. If successful at Zone level, she will represent Dorrigo in the State Competition at the Sydney Royal

Show in 2024. As part of the prize package, the Dorrigo Young Woman will receive a weekend long Personal Development

Coaching Course, including travel and accommodation. This will be prior to the Zone judging and is invaluable in developing

confidence in public speaking, deportment, social etiquette and personal presentation, among other skills. All Entrants receive a

personal portfolio, a sash and a gift kindly sponsored by Dorrigo businesses, in appreciation of the Entrant's participation and

desire to help continue a tradition that is over 50 years old.

This year the Dorrigo Show Society also invites young women aged 6-17 to participate in the Junior Showgirl

Competition which will be run on the Saturday morning of the show, at approximately 10:30am near the show

office. This will be a great opportunity for younger girls to build their confidence and get involved in the Dorrigo

Show. Participants are invited to enter in the following categories:

6-10 years (mini), 11-14 years (junior), 15-17 years (teen)

NATIONAL CATTLE HEALTH DECLARATION EXPLANATORY NOTES

OVERVIEW

The Cattle Health Declaration is a legal document. Please complete accurately before signing. Cattle Heath Declarations are a way for

producers to provide information about the health status of the cattle they are selling. Buyers should ask vendors for a Declaration

and use the information provided to determine the health risks associated with the animals offered for sale.

Some states require testing or certification in addition to that outlined in this document. e.g., Johne’s disease (JD) in WA. Please

check the entry requirements for any interstate movements at:

www.animalhealthaustralia.com.au/what-we-do/endemic-disease/livestock-movements/

The original is to be attached to the National Vendor Declaration (NVD) form accompanying the cattle, if applicable. A duplicate

remains with the vendor; it is recommended the vendor retains a copy of this declaration for seven (7) years.

QUESTION 3: PESTIVIRUS TESTING

Persistently infected animals can be detected by conducting a pestivirus antigen test. This test only needs to be conducted once in an

animal’s life. Cattle that test positive in most cases are persistently infected animals. Pestivirus antibody testing may be done to

check the pestivirus status of the herd. Contact your veterinarian for assistance in understanding the test results.

QUESTIONS 4 & 5 – ENZOOTIC BOVINE LEUCOSIS (EBL)

All cattle entering Tasmania must meet at least ONE of the following criteria:

• Cattle have been tested for EBL with the ELISA test within 42 days before shipment with negative results and evidence supplied via

an attached laboratory report. If samples were pooled, no more than 10 sera or 30 milk samples were combined in each pool.

Unweaned calves less that 12-weeks-of-age transported with their dam do not require testing for EBL; OR

• Dairy cattle from a registered dairy herd must be accredited as Monitored Negative (MN) or better, according to the national

guidelines for EBL Control; OR

• Beef or beef-cross breeds must come from herds in Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia (excluding the cattle tick infected

area), New South Wales (excluding the former North Coast Livestock Health and Pest Authority District), or Queensland (excluding

the cattle tick infested area). The herd of origin must have been in existence for at least three (3) years with no evidence of EBL

infection in the last three (3) years.

QUESTIONS 6, 7 & 8: JOHNE’S DISEASE BEEF CATTLE

Occurrence of JD refers to clinical disease in the herd or on the property. Clinical disease is an infected animal with chronic diarrhoea

and weight-loss that does not respond to treatment.

The Johne’s Beef Assurance Score (J-BAS) is a tool developed for JD risk profiling. Details are available on the Animal Health Australia

website under ‘JD in cattle’. The J-BAS is an initial guide and purchasers should ask for more information about JD in the origin herd

(see JD in Cattle Biosecurity Checklist on the AHA website under ‘JD in cattle’). Transitional arrangements are in place until 30 June

2017. The National Farm Biosecurity Reference Manual - Grazing Livestock Production provides a template to use for the property

biosecurity plan. All plans should include the JD in Cattle Biosecurity Plan Checklist.

Check test – testing of 50 adult animals in the herd (or all eligible animals in a herd if less than 50 adult animals) biased to increase

the probability of detecting infection, tested by ELISA, (pooled) faecal culture or (pooled) HT-J faecal PCR. Sample test - screening of

the adult herd or a large representative sample of the adult herd by an approved test (ELISA, (pooled) faecal culture or (pooled) HT-J

faecal PCR).

QUESTION 9: JOHNE’S DISEASE DAIRY CATTLE JD herd status information about Dairy Assurance Score calculation is available at

www.dairyaustralia.com.au/bjd

QUESTIONS 10 & 11: TREATMENTS & VACCINATIONS Provide details on any cattle treatments and vaccinations within the last six (6)

months. Some manufacturers include more than one of the categories listed in the same vaccine, known as a combination vaccine. If

you use a combination vaccine, each agent(s), as appropriate, should be detailed. For vaccinations to be current, you must have

followed the manufacturer’s recommendation for vaccination. Typically, young animals or first time vaccinated animals need two (2)

doses, followed by annual boosters. As variations to this general rule do occur (e.g. Silirum is given once only), you must use the

manufacturer’s recommendations. At the date the declaration is made and as a result of the vaccination(s) given, the animals are

considered protected from the diseases marked as treated.

DECLARATION This section must only be completed by the owner or person responsible for the husbandry of the cattle in the

consignment.
