Before you start;
If you haven’t already, download the Digital Stable App for free from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Create your free account and add your horses to the app.
Register for the Royal Winter Fair 2025 through the Show Management System (SMS) to purchase your ticket(s) and complete your entry.
Once You’ve Ordered Your Ticket via SMS
Step One
After completing your ticket purchase and entry through the SMS website, you’ll receive an email directly from SMS. This email will include a link to order your Equine Register Health Pass.
Step Two
Click the link in the email. The Digital Stable app will open automatically, showing you how many horses you’ve entered into the Royal and how many now require a Digital Stable Health Pass.
Step Three
Tap “X Horses Require Health Passes for Events” to begin.
You’ll need to complete this process for each horse individually - start with the horse you want to apply for first.
Step Four
The app will automatically attempt to match your horse based on the names of the horses already registered in your Digital Stable account.
If the match isn’t correct, or you’d prefer to select the horse manually, click “Select Another Horse.” You’ll then see a list of all horses registered in your account.
If the horse hasn’t yet been added to your account, tap “Horse Not Listed?” to add it before creating the Health Pass.
Step Five
Once you’ve selected the horse, the app will check its vaccination status to confirm it meets the Royal’s entry requirements.
If the horse doesn’t yet meet the criteria, you’ll see a red Health Pass screen.
Tap the pass to view what information is missing and what updates are required.
Step Six
Click on the event to review the entry criteria.
Any vaccination or certificate showing a red warning icon means your horse’s records are incomplete or missing.
For example: in the screenshot shown, the horse has no vaccinations or Coggins certificate on file.
