Horses will be insured for current market value. Newly acquired horses will be insured for purchase price only. As the horse is trained, shown or competed successfully, or at policy renewal, we will consider value substantion to increase the insured amount. ½ of training costs will usually be allowed towards value. Self-training is allowed. Shipping costs within the USA does not count towards value. Horses that are Internationally imported may be allowed some of the shipping cost towards value. Keep your bill of sale, stud fees, show records, etc. handy. You may be asked to provide these items in the event of a claim. You will need to complete a value substantion/justification of value form to request an increase of insured value.

To obtain a mortality policy, please submit a mortality application from our equine mortality applications page. In some cases, a vet certificate or other forms are required by Insurance Carriers.
