BREEDING & SHOWING

Qatar has become the cornerstone of a renaissance of Arabian horse breeding under the guidance of His Highness Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani, Emir of Qatar, who understands that the Arabian horse represents centuries of priceless history and culture in the Arabian Gulf. Al Shaqab, while currently undergoing significant expansion, remains true to its origins as the visionary breeding farm of HH, the Emir.

Since 1992, Al Shaqab has been recognized as a world class breeding establishment for the breeding and showing of purebred Arabian horses. The goal of the breeding program has remained steadfast since its inception - to produce beautiful and athletic horses that exemplify the nobility which characterizes the Arabian breed. The result of this dedication to excellence is reflected in the global influence of Al Shaqab, including its three renowned world champion stallions, Gazal Al Shaqab, Al Adeed al Shaqab, and Marwan Al Shaqab.Today Al Shaqab is proud that the sons anddaughters of these stallions are now influencing countless other breeding and show programs around the world.
