In this episode of the We Love Arabian Horses podcast, host Paul Kostial sits down with Jonathan Horowitz, Executive Director of the Arabian Jockey Club (AJC), to discuss the growth and evolving role of Arabian racehorses within the breed. Now in his second year leading the AJC, Jonathan reflects on the successes of the past year, both on and off the track, and shares his vision for the future of Arabian racing. One of the year's biggest highlights was the UAE President Cup, a major event that showcased the strength of American-bred Arabian racehorses. Several U.S. horses also made an impact internationally, proving the quality of American bloodlines. Beyond racing, the Race Bred Arabian Series was launched to highlight the many ways retired racehorses excel in other disciplines, including eventing, endurance, and ride-and-tie competitions. Jonathan shares his own experience competing in eventing with his Arabian, reinforcing the breed's natural versatility and adaptability. Jonathan also discusses the significance of race-bred Arabians in the broader breed community, explaining how racing has shaped the development of many top sport and performance horses. He highlights influential stallions like Orzel and Sambor, whose bloodlines continue to impact the breed decades later. While Arabian racing in the U.S. has only been formally organized since 1959, its influence extends far beyond the track, helping to produce horses with the athleticism, endurance, and heart that make Arabians so special. A key focus of the AJC is connecting the racing world with the broader Arabian horse community, ensuring that race-bred Arabians are recognized for their talent and contributions. By sharing success stories and increasing engagement, the AJC hopes to encourage more horse owners to consider race-bred Arabians for disciplines beyond racing. Looking ahead, Jonathan is excited about the future of Arabian racing, noting that each year brings new stars and fresh opportunities for the sport to grow. He also sees potential for collaboration between racing and other disciplines, such as starting young Arabians on the track before transitioning them to sport careers. Throughout the conversation, Jonathan and Paul emphasize the passion and sense of community that fuels Arabian horse enthusiasts. They discuss the importance of sharing stories, engaging with others, and celebrating the breed's unique heritage. Jonathan encourages listeners to tag We Love Arabian Horses when sharing their own Arabian experiences, helping to spread awareness and appreciation for these incredible horses. With momentum building in both racing and the broader Arabian world, the future looks bright for the breed and its many devoted fans.
fWotD Episode 2814: William Robinson Brown Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 17 January 2025 is William Robinson Brown.William Robinson "W. R." Brown (January 17, 1875 – August 4, 1955) was an American corporate officer of the Brown Company of Berlin, New Hampshire. He was also an influential Arabian horse breeder, the founder and owner of the Maynesboro Stud, and an authority on Arabian horses.After graduating from Williams College, Brown joined the family corporation, then known as the Berlin Mills Company, and became manager of the Woods Products Division, overseeing the company's woodlands and logging operations. He became an early advocate for sustainable forest management practices, was a member of the New Hampshire Forestry Commission from 1909 until 1952, and served on the boards of several forestry organizations. As chair of the Forestry Commission, Brown helped send sawmills to Europe during World War I to assist the war effort. He was influenced by the Progressive movement, instituting employee benefits such as company-sponsored care for injured workers that predated modern workers' compensation laws. A Republican, he served as a presidential elector for New Hampshire in 1924.Brown founded the Maynesboro Stud in 1912 with foundation bloodstock from some of the most notable American breeders of Arabian horses. He looked abroad for additional horses, particularly from the Crabbet Arabian Stud, and imported Arabian horses from England, France and Egypt. At its peak, Maynesboro was the largest Arabian horse breeding operation in the United States. In 1929, he wrote The Horse of the Desert, still considered an authoritative work on the Arabian breed. He served as President of the Arabian Horse Club of America from 1918 until 1939. Brown was a remount agent and had a special interest in promoting the use of Arabian horses by the U. S. Army Remount Service. To prove the abilities of Arabians, he organized and participated in a number of endurance races of up to 300 miles (480 km), which his horses won three times, retiring the U. S. Mounted Service Cup. This accomplishment occurred even though The Jockey Club donated $50,000 to the U. S. Army to buy Thoroughbreds that tried but failed to beat the Arabians. Brown's legacy as a horse breeder was significant. Today, the term "CMK", meaning "Crabbet/Maynesboro/Kellogg" is a label for specific lines of "Domestic" or "American-bred" Arabian horses, many of which descend from Brown's breeding program. In 2012, the Berlin and Coös County Historical Society held a 100th anniversary celebration of the stud's founding.Although Brown family members sold personal assets to keep the Brown Company afloat during the Great Depression, including Brown's dispersal of his herd of Arabian horses in 1933, the business went into receivership in 1934. Brown remained in charge of the Woods Division through the company's second bankruptcy filing in 1941. He retired from the company in 1943 and died of cancer in 1955. His final book, Our Forest Heritage, was published posthumously, and his innovations in forest management became industry standards.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Friday, 17 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see William Robinson Brown on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Geraint.

On the latest episode of the On the Lead Podcast, presented by The Jockey Club and In the Money Media, host Shannon Kelly and guest co-host Dan Tordjman have an open and honest conversation regarding Jockey Mental Health. The discussion starts with Donna Brothers, a former jockey and long-time NBC Sports racing analyst and commentator.

Along with Donna, we delve into the unique factors that contribute to jockey mental and physical health, successes of the initiative to date, and her hopes for the future. Next, Nathan Horrocks — a former jump racing rider himself and now filmmaker and co-founder of JockeyCam— discusses what inspired him to produce his moving film ‘The Fall'.

Sky Sports Racing's Josh Apiafi joins Emmet Kennedy to discuss ITV News's attack on horse racing following the tragic deaths of three horses at Cheltenham on Sunday.

We examine how the Whip Rules represent virtue signaling that has backfired spectacularly and highlight racing's urgent need for a spokesperson capable of uniting the sport to combat false narratives and disingenuous talking points. Josh shares his thoughts on who might become the new CEO of the BHA and explains why racing desperately needs fresh leadership.

fWotD Episode 2683: Jersey Act Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 8 September 2024 is Jersey Act.The Jersey Act was introduced to prevent the registration of most American-bred Thoroughbred horses in the British General Stud Book. It had its roots in the desire of British horse breeders to halt the influx of American-bred racehorses of possibly impure bloodlines during the early 20th century. Many American-bred horses were exported to Europe to race and retire to a breeding career after a number of U. S. states banned gambling, which depressed Thoroughbred racing as well as breeding in the United States. The loss of breeding records during the American Civil War and the late beginning of the registration of American Thoroughbreds led many in the British racing establishment to doubt that the American-bred horses were purebred.In 1913, the Jockey Club and the owners of the General Stud Book passed a regulation named by the foreign press after the Jockey Club's senior steward, Lord Jersey, prohibiting the registration of horses in the book unless all of their ancestors had been registered. Despite protests from American breeders, the regulation remained in force until 1949. Among the factors influencing its relaxation were the racing success of ineligible horses in Europe and the damage caused to British and Irish breeders by the unavailability of French Thoroughbreds during and after the Second World War. In addition, by 1949 the possibly impure ancestors of the American bloodlines had receded far back in most horses' ancestry.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:44 UTC on Sunday, 8 September 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Jersey Act on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Kajal.

*** The full episode starts at the 3:55 mark, we were having such a great recap of Devon Arena Eventing before we started and wanted to share it with everyone!***In 2017, Kirsten Schuitema accompanied a friend who wanted to try a couple of OTTBs that our hosts, Emily and Niamh, had sourced from the track and had been bringing along. Little did Kirsten know that she would meet her future upper level partner, One Sly Fox, or “Tango” as he is known in the barn, that day. Back then, Tango was owned by Niamh and known by his Jockey Club name, Double No, or “Nolan” and you can listen to his backstory in Episode 23: Four of our Favorite OTTBs.Fast forward to 2024, and Kirsten has gone from a Novice level rider that had taken time off to go to college and work in the corporate world to 3-star eventing competitor with her partner One Sly Fox.While green horse and green rider isn't always a winning combination, as Kirsten says, “Some horses would hold a grudge from some of the stuff we went through… I'd make a mistake and he'd jump us out of it.” Now Kirsten talks with us about her rise through the ranks, including what it's like to work for 5-star eventer and dual Olympic Gold Medallist, Phillip Dutton, and how she learned to ‘ride properly' for the upper levels.She also candidly speaks about the financial burden of trying to make it as a young professional rider, and her decision to offer syndicate ownership shares in Tango. Above all, Kirsten is a staunch supporter of OTTBs and reveals her favorite thing about the breed.Check out ottbontap.com for One Sly Fox's pedigree, photos, and more!--#ottb #offtrackthoroughbred #ottbpodcast #ottbontap #ottbmakeover #womenpodcasters #horsepodcast #podcastepisode #ottbtransformation #ottbsoftiktok #ottbsofinstagram #eventing #ottbeventer #oneslyfox #schuitemaequestrian #ottbeventer #stubben #arrohelmets #streamhorsetv #impulsionmedia
We're talking all things Royal Ascot this week as Maddy Playle and Peter Scargill join Tom Kerr on the Front Page. Front and centre is the recent debate over whether Royal Ascot is losing its lustre for international runners unimpressed by its prize-money. The panel also discusses a remarkable pre-Ascot spending spree by a rising force in the sport, John Gosden's tough start to the season and the big clashes at next week's festival. Also on the agenda is the exit of Jockey Club chief executive Nevin Truesdale - the panel chews over his record at the top and asks what sort of person might take over the role later in the year. Finally, we follow up a Chris Cook column which called for the BHA to ensure horses spend time in the pre-parade and parade rings, following concerns that racegoers who want to actually see racehorses are getting a raw deal.
