The 2022/2023 endurance horseracing season will begin today at the Bahrain International Endurance Village.

The opening round features a 100-kilometre international qualifying race, and two local qualifying races covering 40km and 80km.

Bahrain Royal Equestrian and Endurance Federation (Breef ) has stepped up preparations for the races, which will be held today and tomorrow.

The international qualifying race and the 80km local qualifying race will take place tomorrow, while the 40km race will be flagged off today at 3pm.

Over the past few days, Breef registered the horses owned by stables vying in the local and international qualifying races. Breef welcomed all stables and jockeys who will take part in the opening races of the new endurance season.

The federation stressed support to all stables and owners to continue contributing to developing the endurance sport in Bahrain.
