LEXINGTON, Kentucky, Nov. 26, 2014–Changes to the withdrawal times for intraarticular injections and shockwave therapy will be implemented by the U.S. Equestrian Federation effective Dec. 1 for the 2015 competition year.
Under rules adopted at the 2014 annual meeting, a four-day withdrawal time from competition will be required for intraarticular injections and three days for shockwave therapy.
