The Quest - 2 day 80km Series

Normally we have 3 x 2 day venues offering this distance.  In 2009 it was Hoddom, Champs, Broughton.  This trophy would be awarded to combination gaining most points in a pre-declared series of 2 day 80km classes.

Rider points awarded as normal but in addition each combination will receive points based on the Performance Formula (see below) which will accrue over the series of 4 and combination with most points will get the trophy.  If more than 1 combination on same score they will share trophy. For SERC members only.

The Performance Formula points in both cases are purely for working out winners of the above 2 trophies.

Performance Formula is
Points = (2 x Speed  - Minimum Speed) x 100
                  divided by   Final  Pulse

Golden Bose of Islay Trophy donated by Karen Cassidy

Alli Balli Bee Gold Cup donated by Nancy Murdoch

Horse with the highest number of golds achieved at 30km rides in any one year. Horse to be registered with SERC.
The speed category is irrelevant, it's getting the gold that counts. If more than one horse gets the same score, they share the trophy and get part of the year each (ie if 2 winners they get it for 6 months each, 3 winners get it for 4 months etc)

Cheryl Wallace Longevity award

This is a one-off award for a horse’s longevity in endurance riding, to be awarded at the club AGM. The award is for the horse – any rider will count.

The award will be made to a horse completing 12 seasons’ rides (as defined below) and registered with SERC for each of the qualifying seasons. An owner of a horse seeking to be considered for the award should initially apply, with evidence of qualification, to their branch archivist, who should notify the club secretary if they consider that the horse meets the award criteria.

A ‘season’s rides’, for the purposes of this award is defined as having completed at least 6 rides within the period 1st January to 31st December annually, (of any type, Pleasure, Training, Competitive or Gated) successfully. The rides can be with any approved endurance riding organisation. Qualifying seasons do not have to be consecutive.
