The FEI’s (Fédération Equestre Internationale) Equine Prohibited Substances Database and website can be found at https://prohibitedsubstancesdatabase.feicleansport.org. For iOS users, this free application is available for download. The application features similar functionality to the website with a design made for mobile devices. iOS users can access the FEI Equine Prohibited Substances Database from the palm of their hand. The application requires that users connect to the internet through cellular or Wi-Fi network. The purpose of the FEI Prohibited Substances Database is to make a clear distinction between the use of routine, legitimate medication and deliberate and calculated doping to affect a horse’s performance; the FEI has published guidelines to assist treating and team veterinarians. Inappropriate use of substances is also a threat to the health and welfare of the horse. The purpose of this database is to help you identify prohibited substances under FEI regulations. Information such as substance definition, common usage and common trade names are available. You must be aware that the list of trade names is not exhaustive but it reflects the most common trade names in various countries. The trade names used may be different in your country. Therefore it is imperative you always use the database to check for active substances rather than trade names. Although the FEI has taken all reasonable care that the information contained within the website and mobile application is accurate at the time of publication, no representation or guarantee (including liability towards third parties), expressed or implied, is made as to its accuracy, reliability or completeness.

Spectator Judging enables fans to get in the judge’s seat and create audience scores and rankings in real-time during the competitions. Co-innovated with SAP and created as a revolutionary new idea with CHIO Aachen in 2013 to let the audience become personally engaged in the judging of dressage and vaulting tournaments, Spectator Judging meanwhile has become a highly welcomed fan offering at forward-thinking tournaments of all sizes up to the FEI World Cup Dressage Series. In 2017, Black Horse One and SAP, the market leader in enterprise application software, have joined forces bundling their expert knowledge in technology and fan engagement to present the new ‘Spectator Judging’ app – powered by SAP technology. GENERAL INFORMATION Choose between one of the following modes: · full mode: Full movement by movement scoring · short mode: Shortened test sheet · quick-mode: Single end result · young horses-mode: three marks for the gaits, one for the submission and one for the perspective Compare your results to the average of other spectators and to the scores of the official judges and help to make dressage events even more exciting! Event organisers may restrict which of these options are possible. Find a list of all supported events here: http://blackhorse88.com/projects/spectator-judging/#anchor_events Your marks and scores are stored on our server using an anonymised version of this device's primary e-mail address. We will not publish your individual data. You will find more information on this topic on the first launch.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Spectator Judging at 5.0 against FEI CleanSport Database's 3.9. Spectator Judging also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 31 months). FEI CleanSport Database's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 16%) and ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Spectator Judging holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FEI CleanSport Database has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of FEI CleanSport Database's written reviews are positive against 16% of Spectator Judging's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FEI CleanSport Database ships an update every 31 months, Spectator Judging every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
