All League presentations will be made at the Autumn Festival on Sunday 5^th September and riders are reminded that they must attend the presentation in order to be eligible for their league prize.

New for 2010: League and Super League points will be published alongside the show results, making it easier for competitors to track their league points.

Leagues will be updated after every show with the updates published on our website and they will also be on display at every show. While we do our best to allocate points correctly human error can occur and we are asking competitors to check their league points and places on a regular basis. Cut-off point for any queries relating to shows prior to the Autumn Festival is Monday 30^th August. Cut off point for any queries relating to the Autumn Festival is Sunday 5^th September one hour before the prize giving.

Full details on the awarding of league points, prize money and tie breaks will be on our website www.marltonstud.com or send SAE to Barbara Delahoyde, Marlton Stud, Wicklow.
