Older Horse Inspection

Registered SWB horses five years of age or older may be presented for inspection during a SWANA Inspection Tour. Inspection, scoring and branding of older horses who are not entered in other classifications (i.e., 3-4 year test, broodmare evaluation, and stallion testing) will be judged on the following criteria.

Five areas are evaluated with a maximum score of ten points possible in each area:

• Type
• Head/neck/body
• Legs
• Walk in hand
• Trot in hand

Older horses will be divided into four classes:

Class I	38 -50 points with no score lower than five
Class II	35-37 points with no score lower than five
Class III	34 points
Class IV	<34 points

Class III and above registered SWB horses only are eligible for branding.

See the Fee Schedule for inspection fees. (The current fee is US $ 75)
For horses aged over 2 who are being branded for the first time, an additional brading fee applies. (The current fee is US $ 75)
