4Guidance Notes On
Completing This Form
The following notes should be read in conjunction with the attached form for Registration of Name of Horse
(NC2). They offer a guide to completion of the form.
A. Please identify the horse you wish to name by way of its breeding (can be found in the passport).
B. You are advised to check by phone/over the Internet ( ) the availability of any name before
submitting the naming form. To aid pronunciation in race commentaries a quarterly communiqué is sent to commentators.
C. You are strongly advised to read the restrictions on name availability set out overleaf. If you are in any doubt as to whether
a name may infringe the legal rights of someone or something we advise you to take legal advice.
D. Registration Fees - A registration fee is due to the British Horseracing Authority at the time of application. You may choose
to pay this fee by cheque or arrange for your Weatherbys Bank/British Horseracing Authority invoice account to be
charged. Members of the Racehorse Owners Association may benefit from a discount (currently 20%) on the BHA
registration fees.
E. Confirmation of Identity - The Rules of Racing stipulate that it is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure the identity
of any horse for which a name application is being submitted.
F. Please give various contact details as requested. This will assist the speedy and accurate return of documents.
Guidance Notes On The
Completion Of Markings
All markings should be completed by a qualified veterinary surgeon who is not the breeder, owner or trainer of the animal in
question. Markings are only required at the naming stage if the animal is foreign bred, requires microchipping, if the passport
has been lost or if there are omissions on the passport markings.
DO
DESCRIBE in narrative all features drawn on the sketch and DRAW all features that you have described.
Ensure that all features are DRAWN FROM ALL PERSPECTIVES on all of the diagrams.
Ensure that the position of all features are SUFFICIENTLY DESCRIBED
(i.e. head whorls and markings in relation to the mid-line and eye level etc).
DESCRIBE CREST WHORLS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE NECK (if one or both are not present please state,
e.g. “There are no crest whorls on the left side”, since the rarity of this event qualifies as an identifying feature).
SCAN THE HORSE TO ENSURE A MICROCHIP IS NOT ALREADY PRESENT AND SCAN THE WEATHERBYS
MICROCHIP AS FUNCTIONING BEFORE AND AFTER IMPLANTING IT IN THE MID LEFT NECK (NUCHAL
LIGAMENT). ATTACH THE BARCODE LABEL TO THE TOP OF THE DOCUMENT AS SHOWN.
Ensure that you record ALL DISTINGUISHING FEATURES. Hatch white markings in RED, mark whorls with an “X” and
prophets thumb marks with a “ ”. and scars with “
”. Include any permanent identifying congenital defects such as parrot
mouth etc.
DON’T
DON’T WRITE IN LOWER CASE - always type description, or print it in block capitals.
DON’T ABBREVIATE OR USE DITTO MARKS (“) - use “right hand side” not R.H.S.
DON’T USE TECHNICAL TERMS NOT EASILY UNDERSTOOD BY A LAY PERSON (e.g. “caudal”) Owners need to be
able to identify this horse from your description and, if it is exported, English may not be the first language.
DON’T USE TERMS SUCH AS STOCKING OR SOCK - describe the white in relation to the fetlock, pastern, cannon bone
or hock etc.
DON’T FORGET TO COMPLETE THE MARKINGS BY SIGNING AND DATING THEM AND GIVING YOUR PRACTICE
ADDRESS.
Please note: If the horse can not be adequately identified from your markings in the future it may be prevented from racing or being
sold at public auction.
