Overview

Nothing is quite as thrilling as watching your Arabian racehorse in the home stretch speeding neck and neck toward the finish line to a photo finish. Or… maybe it’s you standing proudly in the winner’s circle with your majestic horse at your side as the track photographer commemorates your win. Either way, the thrill of horse racing and the thrill of wining are both feelings that you won’t soon forget!

The excitement of Arabian racing is undeniable, but the question is how can you get involved and who can provide you with the help that every beginner needs so that racing will be an enjoyable and worthwhile experience? The answer is the Arabian Jockey Club. The AJC can lend a helpful, knowledgeable hand as you enter the starting gate to Arabian racing.

For as much as this thrilling sport has expanded over the years, there are still endless possibilities for the newcomer and a need for additional horses. Racing blood lines are still being uncovered which has caused many an owner to take a second look in his barn for racing talent while wondering, “Could I be the next big winner?”

Racing is not an exclusive sport either. Arabian owners are finding that the athleticism and beauty of a racehorse can lead to success in the show arena and distance riding as well as on the track.

Arabian racing is a sport that promises to continue its drive to the finish line. Pure-bred Arabians can be found racing on all continents. International competition has expanded with many internationally sponsored Arabian races here in the USA.

It’s the perfect time to get involved and the AJC is here to help put you on the right track!
