Avances sobre el Panamericano 2011 en Chile .....

Con el objetivo de ir ampliando el conocimiento y comprensión de los jinetes y clubes de enduro ecuestre establecidos en Chile en relación con los términos bajo los cuales se desarrollará el Panamericano en el 2011, la Asociación Chilena de Enduro Ecuestre (AChee), publicó en el mes de julio, las siguientes orientaciones sobre los parámetros de clasificación bajo los cuales se regirán los binomios nacionales para configurar el equipo chileno, a saber:

>Los caballos y jinetes que cumplan los requisitos FEI, deberán presentarse al proceso de clasificación y selección en una fecha no posterior al día 22 de julio de 2011, ante una Comisión Clasificatoria que evaluará los siguientes parámetros:

1. Resultados de las últimas 3 carreras terminadas del respectivo caballo, en la categoría CEI 2** o superior (distancias no inferiores a 120 km), considerando puntaje, velocidad de carrera, tiempo de recuperación. A lo menos, una de dichas carreras deberá haberse realizado durante el año 2011. Esta evaluación representará un 40% del puntaje final del binomio.

2. Informe veterinario del respectivo caballo, tomando como antecedentes, las fichas veterinarias de las carreras correspondientes a los 24 meses anteriores al cierre del proceso de clasificación, más examen clínico, exámenes complementarios y de laboratorio actualizados, para obtener información científica sobre las condiciones y sanidad del caballo. Esta evaluación representará un 40% del puntaje final del binomio.

3. Aptitud y condiciones del respectivo jinete, incluyendo su conducta deportiva. Esta evaluación representará un 20% del puntaje final del binomio.

Cada uno de estos parámetros entregará una nota, que sumadas darán como resultado una puntuación final. Resultarán elegidos quienes obtengan el mayor puntaje.

>La Comisión Clasificatoria estará integrada por:

A) Dos veterinarios FEI

B) Tres directores o ex directores de la ACHEE

Los integrantes de la Comisión Clasificatoria serán informados oportunamente.

>Quienes se encuentren interesados en participar en este proceso clasificatorio, representando a Chile en el Panamericano 2011, deberán abonar un valor que será informado oportunamente.

Además de estas orientaciones, la AChee publicó las siguientes normas FEI (en inglés) sobre las condiciones de participación de los binomios (cualquiera que sea su procedencia) en el Panamericano 2011, las cuales, son las siguientes:
