What an incredible opportunity for the Arabian industry in Australia! Hats off to the AABC Committee/members. You all should be proud!!
Emirates Arabian Horse Global Cup | Australasian Championship
The Emirates Arabian Horse Global Cup (EAHGC) is coming to Australasia! We are thrilled that the Emirates Arabian Horse Society, in affiliation with ECAHO, has extended the opportunity to our breeders and owners in Australia and New Zealand to share in this exciting, innovative and truly global programme which will reward fifty locally bred and owned purebred Arabian horses annually with over A$100,000 in prize money.

The Australasian Championship has the distinct honour of being the very first event on the annual international calendar in the EAHGC tour. Scheduled for the 3rd and 4th of February 2024, the EAHGC Australasian Championship will be conducted in conjunction with the Australasian Arabian International Championships at Willinga Park in Bawley Point, NSW.
According the rules outlined by the EAHS, the vast majority of our owners and breeders in Australia and New Zealand will qualify to compete and win prize money as small-medium sized breeders with their purebred Arabian breeding stock. Paid entry for your qualifying purebred Arabian breeding class in the AAIC will grant automatic entry into the corresponding division in the EAHGC for all horses owned by certified small-medium sized breeders. Prize money will be paid directly by the EAHS to all owners of horses placed first through fifth in all ten (10) EAHGC qualifying classes for purebred Arabian junior fillies and colts (yearlings, two year olds and three year olds), as well as senior mares and stallions (two splits according to age for both genders).

More information is forthcoming in the days ahead from the Emirates Arabian Horse Society on this truly global initiative designed to stimulate the breeding of purebred Arabian horses and support small breeders, the foundation of our industry, in every region of the world. A total of ten shows will be included in the Emirates Global Cup Tour annually in six regions worldwide: two in the Middle East – Bahrain and Oman; two in North Africa – Egypt and Morocco; three in Europe – France, Denmark and Czechia; and one each in North America (USA), South America (Brazil) and Australasia – our own AAIC at Willinga Park!
More details on prize money, awards, incentives, bonus gifts and celebratory opportunities will be forthcoming over the course of the next week prior to the close of entries, which has now been extended to Friday the 12th of January. We look forward to celebrating with you and the global Arabian community this February as we showcase the best of Australasian-bred and owned Arabian horses to the world!
