I have had sufficient opportunity to read this release and waiver of liability and assumption of risk agreement, fully understand its terms and sign it freely and voluntarily without inducement of any kind.

For the purpose of this Engagement Agreement, Rangeview Farm Equestrian and it’s employees and associates are herein referred to as ‘The Trainer’ and the horse’s owner or agent is herein referred to as ‘The Owner’.

Whereby the Trainer agrees to agist, produce, train and or sell the Owner’s horse or horses identified below (“the horse/s”) at Rangeview Farm, on the conditions set out below.

GENERAL TERMS

• The horse is under the care of Rangeview Farm Equestrian at the Owner’s risk at all times. It is the Owner’s responsibility to insure the horse/s against all risks while they are at Rangeview Farm or being transported to and from the property. The Trainer shall not be responsible for any disease, accident, illness or injury howsoever caused or arising to the horse/s whilst transporting to or from the property, or at the property.

• The Owner must notify the Trainer immediately if the Owner becomes aware that the horse suffers or has been in contact with any significant or notifiable sickness, disease or injury.

• The Owner gives the Trainer a lien over the horse/s for payment of the agistment and training fees and all other charges and expenses which the Owner must pay under this Agreement. This means that the Owner may not remove the horse/s from the property while any part of this Agreement is NOT fulfilled.

• On arrival, your horse will be wormed, vaccinated (at your expense) and a photo taken for identity and condition purposes.

• You are welcome to come and see your horse by arrangement ONLY. Rangeview will supply updates in the form of texts, emails and/or photos/ videos.

• The cost of entry fees and show/ event charges (as charged by an organising committee) will be on-charged to ‘The Owner’s’ monthly invoice.

• Any prize money won under AUD$500 will be retained by ‘The Trainer’. Prize money over $500 will be split 50/50 and credited against ‘The Owner’s’ monthly invoice. Other materialistic prizes (rugs, ribbons, feed, vouchers etc) will be retained by ‘The Trainer’ unless otherwise agreed.

• The Trainer may sell the horse/s at public auction or by private sale, to recover any monies unpaid for 60 days after the Trainer has sent the account.

  SALES TERMS

• The Owner irrevocably appoints the Trainer as the Owner’s attorney with the power to sell the horse/s and to sign all transfers and other documents and do everything necessary to effect and complete the sale and to receive the purchase price and credit it towards the costs of sale and all monies owing.

• The Owner and the Trainer will agree on a purchase price to be deposited into the Owner’s nominated bank account. The Owner understands that while it is the Trainer’s best intention to achieve this agreed amount, a normal sales process may mean a price negotiation at time of sale.

All activity (including conversations, training methods, lessons, sales trial appointments, general farm activities and any other form of horse interaction including but not limited to the above) are not to be discussed with unauthorised parties.
