- https://www.quora.com/Why-did-horses-become-extinct-on-the-prairies-of-America-when-humans-arrived-but-not-on-the-steppes-of-Eurasia-Why-did-bison-survive The extinction of horses in the Americas has grown into a debated subject. Most paleontologists believe that all horses died out in North America centuries AFTER the first humans arrived. But there exists no consensus when.
A stallion is a male horse that has not been gelded (castrated). Stallions follow the conformation and phenotype of their breed, but within that standard, the presence of hormones such as testosterone may give stallions a thicker, "cresty" neck, as well as a somewhat more muscular physique as compared to female horses, known as mares, and castrated males, called geldings. The term "stallion" dates from the era of Henry VII, who passed a number of laws relating to the breeding and export of horses in an attempt to improve the British stock, under which it was forbidden to allow uncastrated male horses to be turned out in fields or on the commons; they had to be "kept within bounds and tied in stalls." (The term "stallion" for an uncastrated male horse dates from this time; stallion = stalled one.) "Stallion" is also used to refer to males of other equids, including zebras and donkeys.
-El caballo de raza árabe Le cheval arabe et le pur-sang arabe The Arabian or Arab horse (Arabic: الحصان العربي [ ħisˤaːn ʕarabiː], DMG ḥiṣān ʿarabī) is a breed of horse that originated on the Arabian Peninsula. With a distinctive head shape and high tail carriage, the Arabian is one of the most easily recognizable horse breeds in the world. It is also one of the oldest breeds, with archaeological evidence of horses in the Middle East that resemble modern Arabians dating back 4,500 years. Throughout history, Arabian horses have spread around the world by both war and trade, used to improve other breeds by adding speed, refinement, endurance, and strong bone. Today, Arabian bloodlines are found in almost every modern breed of riding horse.
The Arabian developed in a desert climate and was prized by the nomadic Bedouin people, often being brought inside the family tent for shelter and protection from theft.

- Przewalski's horse (pronounced /ʃəˈvælski/ shə-val-skee or /pʃəˈvælski/ pshə-val-skee; Khalkha Mongolian: тахь, takhi; Ak Kaba Tuvan: [daɣə//daɢə] dagy; Polish: [pʂɛˈvalskʲi]; Equus ferus przewalskii) or Dzungarian horse, is a rare and endangered subspecies of wild horse (Equus ferus) native to the steppes of central Asia. At one time extinct in the wild (in Mongolia, the last wild Przewalski's horses had been seen in 1966), it has been reintroduced to its native habitat in Mongolia at the Khustain Nuruu National Park, Takhin Tal Nature Reserve, and Khomiin Tal. The taxonomic position is still debated, and some taxonomists treat Przewalski's horse as a species, Equus przewalskii. Common names for this equine include takhi, Asian wild horse and Mongolian wild horse, The horse is named after the Russian geographer and explorer Nikolay Przhevalsky.([gc pang and h toth] he led an expedition in 1881 to find the last true wild horse in the world) Most "wild" horses today, such as the American Mustang or the Australian Brumby, are actually feral horses descended from domesticated animals that escaped and adapted to life in the wild. In contrast, Przewalski's horse has never been domesticated and remains the only true wild horse in the world today. Przewalski's horse is one of three known subspecies of Equus ferus, the others being the domesticated horseEquus ferus caballus, and the extinct tarpan Equus ferus ferus. There are still a number of other wild equines, including three species of zebra and various subspecies of the African wild ass, onager (including the Mongolian wild ass), and kiang. 普氏野马(Equus ferus przewalskii)是马的亚种,原产于蒙古国西部科布多盆地和中国新疆准噶尔盆地东部一带(因此也被称作蒙古野马或准噶尔野马),是世界上仅存的野马(某些不至混淆的情况下也被直接称作亚洲野马或野马)。蒙古野马于1879年由俄国探险家普尔热瓦尔斯基(俄语:Никола́й Миха́йлович Пржева́льский)首次发现,其后其野外数量不断下减,至1969年人类最后一次发现其野生个体,前后仅经历90年的时间,其保护状态也由濒危变为野外灭绝。

- The Akhal-Teke (/ˌækəlˈtɛk/ or /ˌækəlˈtɛki/; from Turkmen Ahalteke, [ahalˈteke]) is a horse breed from Turkmenistan, where they are a national emblem. They have a reputation for speed and endurance, intelligence, and a distinctive metallic sheen. The shiny coat of palominos and buckskins led to their nickname "Golden Horses".[2] These horses are adapted to severe climatic conditions and are thought to be one of the oldest existing horse breeds.[3] There are currently about 6,600 Akhal-Tekes in the world, mostly in Turkmenistan and Russia, although they are also found throughout Europe and North America. Akhal was the name of the line of oases along the north slope of the Kopet Dag mountains. It was inhabited by the Tekke tribe of Turkomans.

- The Jeju horse(제주마, Jejuma) is a horse breed native to the Jeju Island in South Korea. There is a diverse array of types, each differently identified depending on their coat color. Jeju horses mature well in harsh conditions due to their strength and fitness. With an outstanding tolerance of low temperatures, they have been mostly pastured without the need for horse blankets or stables. Jeju horses were once considered to be endangered. Following the nation’s industrialization period of the 1960s, Jeju horses became impractical to use with the distribution of new agricultural machinery and developments in means of transportation. In response, the Government of the Republic of Korea designated the Jeju horse as Natural Monument No. 347 in 1986, as a way to preserve and manage approximately 150 of the remaining Jeju horses as state-designated cultural properties.
Le droit de pâturage Agistment originally referred specifically to the proceeds of pasturage in the king's forests. To agist is, in English law, to take cattle to graze, in exchange for payment (derived from the Old English giste, gite, a "lying place").Agistment originally referred specifically to the proceeds of pasturage in the king's forests in England, but now means either:[2]
- the contract for taking in and feeding horses or cattle on pasture land, for the consideration of a periodic payment of money;
- the profit derived from such pasturing.
Agistment involves a contract of bailment, and the bailee must take reasonable care of the animals entrusted to him; he is responsible for damages and injury which result from ordinary casualties, if it be proved that such might have been prevented by the exercise of great care.

- Antonio Franconi (1738 in Venice, Italy - 1836 in Paris, France) was an Italian equestrian.
He started as a juggler and wandering physician, then arranged bullfights in Lyon and Bordeaux. In 1783, he associated with the English horse rider Philip Astley who had opened a riding school in Paris and founded an equestrian theater named Cirque Olympique (French, Olympic circus), which acquired an impressive reputation. His sons and grandsons continued to attract the public with the talent of their squired and the perfection of their showmanship in their fantasy and military plays. The last famous squire bearing this name was Laurent Franconi who died in 1849. Napoleon once remarked acidly to his marshal Joachim Murat, who was gayly attired in an extravagant Polish uniform after the Battle of Heilsberg in 1807, that he looked like Franconi ("Vous avez l'air de Franconi").

- 一九七二至七三年間,嘉峪關出土的磚畫中,其一繪獵人驅馬彎弓向左奔馳,追逐一隻中箭仍逃跑的鹿;其二繪一女騎手策一匹飛奔的駿馬,返身急射,而一隻野兔頸部中箭逃遁。二者和附圖的筆調、畫法、用色、馬兒邁開大步的形態相近,如出一轍;風格皆粗獷樸實,線條簡練豪放,較多用赭石和紅色,明快古拙,栩栩如生。敦煌莫高窟也繪有騎射較量的壁畫;例如北周時繪須達拿太子向善覺國王的女兒求婚,應約比試策馬和射箭,以七面鐵鼓為靶,是當時比賽真實而生動的寫照。一些古籍也有零星記載魏晉南北朝時期,已有騎技、馬術、馬車競快等活動。 古代甘肅一帶,本來大多是黃河的河曲馬;自漢武帝時引入胡人大宛汗血馬,後又經絲綢之路引進烏孫天馬和波斯騮馬等,品種顯著改良和優化。正如唐代詩人杜甫所詠:「鋒棱瘦骨成,竹批雙耳峻,風入四蹄輕,所向無空闊……」;亦如元代楊載形容:「朝趨欲出飛鳥上,夕逝直與奔星齊。」敦煌城西南有一座古石壩,攔成小湖,名叫黃水壩,原名渥窪池。據說,當年漢武帝流放到此地,利用泥人誘捕得一匹日行千里的天馬,能飛奔如行空;自古以來,甘肅駿馬聲名大噪。http://www.takungpao.com.hk/culture/237141/2020/0522/451752.html
- 全家都熱衷參與馬術運動的王薔曾擔任北京奧組委馬術項目主管,如今是北京馬術協會副會長的她接受大公報獨家專訪,講述她和中國馬術共同成長的故事。\大公報記者 李理 電影《賽馬女孩》令全球觀眾一飽澳洲傳奇女騎師佩恩的巔峰之路。同為愛馬的女性,王薔從時尚雜誌編輯一頭扎進馬術圈則是20年前的事。她清楚記得當時全國只有幾十家馬術俱樂部,其中北京不用一隻手就能數得過來。「最初俱樂部只有九匹馬,十一名客人」。 數據顯示,現時內地已有超過2160家馬術機構,馬術運動愛好者超過100萬人。王薔說,北京、大灣區和長三角地區的愛好者最多,每年新開的俱樂部則以兩位數增速增長。 與香港賽馬文化有所不同,目前內地的馬術運動開展的主要是場地障礙和盛裝舞步。不過王薔說無論那種項目,核心始終是馬匹訓練。 在她心裏,香港賽馬會的雙魚河鄉村會所和學徒騎師學校(Beas River)堪稱典範。於是,在距離首都機場不遠的地方,王薔和她同樣熱愛馬術的丈夫建起一座世界級馬術競賽場和馬房,俱樂部的名字自然與馬分不開,取字名畫《調良圖》,叫「天星調良」。 2008年北京主辦奧運會,中國選手首次獲得奧運會馬術比賽資格。王薔曾任北京奧組委馬術項目主管的經歷,更是她人生的一道分水嶺。 中國馬術協會原秘書長常偉是王薔奧運經歷的引路人,他曾直言「要像培養優秀運動員一樣培養參賽馬。」王薔2006年報考奧組委競賽部馬術項目工作崗位,憑藉專業背景和語言優勢最終獲選。此後兩年,她和香港奧馬公司配合,參與了奧運會與殘奧會的組織工作,「學到了很多東西,是一生最寶貴的經歷之一。」

- scmp remember a day on a 19jun1979 report - The building of the racecourse in Sha Tin might, in the end, generate enough revenue for the government to pay for the initial stage of the Mass Transit Railway, according to Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club officials. They estimated that in that year alone legal gambling would produce an amount equivalent to 15 per cent of direct taxation. Without this sum, the government would have to add 2 to 3 per cent on salaries and profits tax to make up for it.https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/society/article/3015403/british-princess-feels-pinch-malaysias-hard-line-refugees

disciplinary cases
- rawiller case
- There are real fears Nash could face jail time, similar to former Aussie jockey Chris Munce, who was convicted of conspiring to trade tips in return for bets in 2007 and spent a total of 19 months in jail, six in Hong Kong and 13 in Australia. While there are similarities to the two situations, the case against Munce was initiated by the ICAC, whereas Rawiller was investigated by the HKJC. Des O’Keefe, from the Australian Jockeys Association, said no new information would come to light until Rawiller was released by the ICAC. https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/superracing/nash-rawiller-banned-for-15-months-for-betting-offences-in-hong-kong/news-story/0271cde6adb8f29b31f57bda113cab27
events
- Thoroughbred horse racing is a worldwide sport and industry involving the racing of Thoroughbred horses. It is governed by different national bodies. There are two forms of the sport: Flat racing and jump racing, called National Hunt racing in the UK and steeplechasing in the US. Jump racing can be further divided into hurdling and steeplechasing. Traditionally racehorses have been owned by very wealthy individuals. It has become increasingly common in the last few decades for horses to be owned by syndicates or partnerships. Notable examples include the 2005 Epsom Derby winner Motivator, owned by the Royal Ascot Racing Club, 2003 Kentucky Derby winner Funny Cide, owned by a group of 10 partners organized as Sackatoga Stable. 2008 Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown, owned by IEAH stables, a horse racing hedgefund organization. Historically, most race horses were bred and raced by their owners. Beginning after World War II, the commercial breeding industry became significantly more important in North America, Europe and Australasia, with the result that a substantial portion of Thoroughbreds are now sold by their breeders, either at public auction or through private sales. Additionally, owners may acquire Thoroughbreds by "claiming" them out of a race (see discussion of types of races below). A horse runs in the unique colours of its owner. These colours must be registered under the national governing bodies and no two owners may have the same colours. The rights to certain colour arrangements ("cherished colours") are valuable in the same way that distinctive car registration numbers are of value. It is said that Sue Magnier (owner of George Washington, Galileo etc.) paid £50,000 for her distinctive dark blue colours.[1] If an owner has more than one horse running in the same race then some slight variant in colours is often used (normally a different coloured cap) or the race club colours may be used.
- The Badminton Horse Trials is a three-day event, one of only six annual Concours Complet International (CCI) Four Star **** events as classified by the Fédération Équestre Internationale (FEI). It takes place in April or May each year in the park of Badminton House, the seat of the Duke of Beaufort in South Gloucestershire, England.Badminton was first held in 1949 by the 10th Duke of Beaufort in order to let British riders train for international events.Badminton has been cancelled on several occasions – in 1966, 1975, 1987 and 2012 the event was cancelled completely, and in 1963 it was downgraded to a one-day event due to bad weather. In 2001 it was cancelled due to foot and mouth disease.[4] In 2012 it was cancelled due to waterlogged ground.
- ?????? https://www.ft.com/content/a587a248-869a-11e8-9199-c2a4754b5a0e Somewhere between a village fete, Badminton Horse Trials and the Burning Man festival is the ‘moussem’ of Had Draa. A moussem is a festival held in honour of a saint. They take place all over Morocco, with the main season running from late spring to mid-autumn. Conjure up a combination of a village fete, a funfair, the Badminton Horse Trials and the Burning Man festival and you’ll be close to picturing the scene.
- The Everest is an Australian Turf Club Weight for Age Thoroughbred horse race run over 1,200 metres on turf at Randwick Racecourse in Sydney, Australia. Run for the first time in 2017, it is not yet eligible for Group race status. With prize money of $13 million [2], it is the richest race in Australia and the richest turf race in the world. It is held on the second Saturday of October as the feature race of the Sydney Spring Carnival. The race has an unusual entry fee structure, similar to that of the Pegasus World Cup. Twelve "slots" are sold for $600,000 each, which represents a slot in the starting gate for a then unspecified horse. The slot holder then has the right to race, lease, contract or share a starter, or sell their place in the gate.
- The Pegasus World Cup is an American Thoroughbred horse race whose first running was on January 28, 2017 at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida.
