On Monday 8th April 2024, the Polish Association of Arabian Horse Breeders and the Polish Jockey Club opened a new chapter of mutual cooperation and joint efforts to the benefit of purebred Arabian horses in Poland.
The delegation of the PAHBA Management Board: Mateusz Leniewicz-Jaworski, Magdalena Helak-Kulczyńska and Łukasz Goździalski, met at the Służewiec Racetrack with the newly elected PJC President: Mr. Paweł Gocłowski.
The meeting had an introductory and substantive nature, as both the Racing and Show Seasons are just around the proverbial corner. At the meeting, with common positions and joint initiatives in mind, we touched upon a number of topics of key importance not only to the Polish Community of Arabian (racing, sports, and show) horse breeders, but also to the Polish and international public opinion.
Among the major points discussed during the substantive part of the meeting were the following:
- continuation of the cooperation between PAHBA, PCJ and the Polish Arabian Stud Book PASB,
- introduction of SPECIAL RACES for purebred Arabians on Polish racetracks to the Race Plan,
- restoring a PAHBA Representative as a Member of the PJC Council,
- organisation of the Polish National Arabian Horse Show and the Pride of Poland Auction along with the Summer Sale in August 2024 at the Janów Podlaski Stud,
- a pool of tickets for PAHBA members for this year’s races organised at the Służewiec Racetrack.
We would like to thank the PJC President for a substantive and fruitful meeting in a pleasant and professional atmosphere.
We are certain that in the months to come, we will jointly implement and achieve goals with measurable benefits for the entire Community.
