Entry Eligibility confusion
Posted: Sat 28 Feb 2015 12:27 pm
Triallers/RAFT delegates,
I have had discussions with a number of individuals and it seems that there is a belief in some quarters that if a dog has been awarded a Restricted title under the old rules, this prevents the dog from being entered under the rules as commenced this year, in Restricted. Surely this is incorrect, as there is no mention of such an exclusion method within the new rules. In my view this would to a large extent defeat the whole purpose of the rule amendments pertaining to lower stakes eligibility. If I am missing something in my scouring of the Rules please advise. Cheers
