I also hereby authorize any necessary veterinary arrangements for my horse(s) in the event of an injury, accident or illness.

To the extent possible, this Release shall be construed in such a manner as will render it fully enforceable; but if any provision is found to be unenforceable, such provision (or so much thereof as is found to be unenforceable) shall be deleted and the remainder of this Release shall continue in full force and effect.
