Can I change passports?

[zachryconk]

I have an ID x TB filly who I wanted to register as an Irish Sport Horse.
I thought I had to do this through the Irish Draught Society - Wrong! They are two different bodies I have since found out. I received my Passport which is just an Irish Draught one.
Is it tough buns now or can I change the Draught Passport for a Sports Horse one? If so who do I contact?
Have looked online and cant see the wood through the trees so I am throwing myself at your mercy!

Brain-Fried.... lol

Yours will be on the sport horse register of the IDHS, so Im not sure what the problem is?

Thanks for taking the time to read and reply to my post.
So are you saying that there is no such thing as an Irish Sports Horse Passport? That all Irish Sport Horses have Irish Draught passports which states their breed is Irish Draught like mine does?

OK, the Irish Draught Horse society has its main register, for full IDs, yours is a cross bred so if its on this one its a mistake (but I cant see that), a Sport horse register for part breds, which yours should be on, and a purely identification register for anything needing a passport.

What colour cover does your passport have and what does it say on it?

As to your question, yes there is an irish sport horse register, but you are already on a different sport horse register so no, you cant legally get a completely different one now as far as I know.

What you can do, if you want to, is send it off to be overstamped by other PIO

The passport I have is a see through plastic cover with a white front page.
Its title is `Irish Draught Horse Society (GB) Passport`.
It has her pedigree but states in section 2 under breed that she is Irish Draught.
I spoke to Annie Holbeche about that and she said it was something that the computer did automatically.
I dont quite get the concept of overstamping to be honest. This is the first home bred horse and I so wanted to get it right, I am sorry if I am being a total pain/being really dense.

PS. What I wanted to achieve was a Passport relevant to her breeding. To me this looks like she is just an Irish Draught (nothing wrong with that I hasten to add!). If we were to sell her I wouldnt want to wrongly advertise her as a Sport Horse when her papers say she isnt. Hope you get my drift?!

 

[Capriole]

No worries.

Ok, in section 2, look to the right of where it says (3) Breed Irish Draught, (4) says Studbook class, have you got 'SHR' there?

 

[Capriole]

yes I know what you mean but I honestly think youre fine

 

[zachryconk]

I have `G3SH`

 

[Capriole]

Ok thats Grade 3 Sport Horse, there you go, shes registered as a Sport Horse

 

[zachryconk]

MWAH!! Thank you. As I typed it onto here the penny started to drop.
Its been as clear as mud to me until you came to my rescue!
I doubt I shall be breeding again, just as well me thinks when it comes to paperwork..
Will sleep well now, for what is left before I have to get up anyway..

ISH passports come from Horse Sport Ireland. You either get a green one for approved stallions/mares or a blue one for unapproved. I think !
