Current Wording – Article 203 ENTRY

203.1 An entry is defined as a combination of horse(s), vehicle and driver and must be assigned a specific entry number. If a championship based on the ADS rules is offered, a change of any part of the combination constitutes a different entry and must be assigned a separate number unless otherwise specified by the Organizer and published in the ADS Omnibus. In the event that a vehicle is disabled or judged unsafe to start or continue, management may authorize the substitution of another vehicle without issuing a new number.

Suggested Wording –

203.1 Unless otherwise specified in the Omnibus, an entry is defined as a combination of horse(s), vehicle and driver and must be assigned a specific entry number. If a championship based on the ADS rules is offered, a change of any part of the combination constitutes a different entry and must be assigned a separate number unless otherwise specified by the Organizer and published in the ADS Omnibus. In the event that a vehicle is disabled or judged unsafe to start or continue, management may authorize the substitution of another vehicle without issuing a new number.

Reason for change – To allow organizers to specify what constitutes an entry at their show, e.g. horse and driver with multiple vehicles. Sometimes done to encourage the use of antique vehicles.
