A reporting channel was mentioned:
- DIAN anti-smuggling line 159 (including customs tax police references)
Competition judging as a “process” (implicit playbook)
Judging notes across categories reflect a consistent evaluation approach.
Evaluation dimensions repeated by judges
- Cadence / rhythm in both trot and gallop
- Ease and balance between gaits (e.g., trotting elements vs galloping elements)
- Elevation / footfall firmness and rear-end propulsion
- Stability of the head/neck position (sequence and firmness)
- Tempo consistency (some horses speed up then slow down)
- Change-of-gait tests and figure-eight patterns (including transitions)
- Behavior / docility
- withdrawals can occur for indocility or poor compliance with gait/format
Common outcomes
Higher placements were linked to maintaining:
- Uniformity + elasticity (rear-end engagement)
- Naturalness + solvency
- Confidence during tests (especially figure-eight and transitions)
Lower placements / drops were attributed to:
- Energy decline over time
- Loss of softness / sequence
- Head instability
- Failure to maintain rhythm / cadence
- Pain or ailments, leading to withdrawal/excusal
Concrete examples / case outcomes (from judging notes)
Example: “mares 48–60 months” (top 5)
Judge narratives connected placement to specific execution differences, such as cadence, head position, transitions, and support rhythm:
-
#10 Double Blessing of the Miraculous — 1st place Best balance: trot cadence + gallop ease + stable rhythm
-
#9 Dorotea de Villoscana — 2nd place Strong trot impact; gallop altered head position slightly
-
#1 Santa Isabel Sandstorm — 3rd place Disciplined, gentle execution; slightly less effective in specific transition moments
-
#3 Scent of Bermuda — 4th place Better exercise comfort, but a less advantageous overall fit at key moments
-
#11 Wonderful Good People — 5th place Indecisions in support rhythm for part of the category
Withdrawals/excused cases due to compliance and health
Repeated operational rulings included withdrawals for:
- Docility / indocility (horse refused to continue march)
- Rhythmic condition / arrhythmia in forelimbs
- Gait/format non-compliance (withdrawal or excusal from modality)
- Pain or posterior/left posterior issues mentioned as causes for excusal
