Final Points to Consider
Nearly there, but give these last couple a points a quick read through: they'll help to ensure that your ownership experience runs smoothly from day one:
Third Party Liability Insurance
Owners are vulnerable to claims under the Animals’ Act for damage or injury caused to a third party by their horses. Although there is a requirement for trainers to have public liability insurance, there is no mandatory requirement for that cover to extend to owners. As such it is recommended that all owners ensure that they have suitable third party liability insurance in place for any horses in training in which they have an ownership interest.
Training Agreements
It is strongly recommended that all owners ensure that a formal training agreement is drawn up between themselves and their trainer. The ROA has drawn up a training agreement in liaison with the National Trainers' Federation. The BHA has confirmed that the agreement complies with its rules that require that a signed training agreement exists between owner and trainer.
