YOUR PADDOCK

The management reserves the right to change your horse's paddock if necessary.

YOUR HORSE - SICKNESS AND INJURY

No matter how well an agistment farm is managed, there is still the possibility of sickness or injury visiting your horse. Regrettable as these occurrences are, Ashford Park will not under any circumstances be liable for such events. We shall make every effort to ensure that your horse remains safe and healthy, but in the event that your horse does succumb to an illness or injury, all associated costs involved shall be borne by you.
Although one of the proprietors of Ashford Park is an equine veterinary surgeon, the enormous expense of liability insurance for veterinary surgeons attending horses will preclude his attending your horse.
Please call your own veterinary surgeon when required . If you advise us who your vet is, then we may contact that vet for you in the event of our becoming aware of a problem with your horse that requires urgent attention and our being unable to contact you first. Should that vet be unavailable, we may contact another veterinary surgeon on your behalf. Please note that all veterinary expenses incurred in this manner remain payable by you.
We encourage you to insure your horse, saddlery and equipment against all risks at all times. All equipment left in the tack rooms is left at your own risk.
Routine vaccination and dental care are your responsibility.

WORMING

All agisted horses must be wormed on arrival unless they have been wormed within the previous two weeks. Worming and wormers are included in the agistment fee.

SAFETY

Unless your horse is in its paddock, it must be restrained at all times to ensure the safety of other horses, people and their property. Ashford Park will not be responsible for damage caused by your horse to anyone's property.
