Doha: The Qatar Racing and Equestrian Club (QREC) will participate in the 11th renewal of the annual Salon du Cheval d’El Jadida, which will be held in Morocco between October 15 to 21


 

Through its stand at the Salon, QREC promotes its various activities. These include the race meetings run at Al Rayyan Racecourse every season and at the world’s top racecourses every year, other events such as purebred Arabian horse shows and Qatar’s achievements and progress in this area. The stand, further, features several sports, heritage and community-related activities, which attract the visitors throughout the days of the Salon.

Besides, the Salon hosts Moroccan heritage-related activities, including the Tbourida. The Tbourida shows receive huge turnout throughout the days of the Salon.

“The strategic relationships between Qatar and Morocco have motivated QREC, with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Sports, to participate in the Salon every year,” said Issa bin Mohammed Al Mohannadi, QREC Chairman, ‘

“We, in Qatar, are highly interested to contribute to the success of the Salon, meet with the other participants and get to know all new developments in the equestrian world. In fact, this participation is in line with QREC’s strategy in terms of international events and festivals where QREC takes part. We look forward to reflecting the strength of the Qatari - Moroccan relations.”

It is worth mentioning that QREC participated in previous editions of the Salon du Cheval and has become a main participant and a key landmark of the annual event. QREC is working to take the 11th edition of the Salon du Cheval to unprecedented level of success. QREC will participate with a delegation in the Salon to be part of the anticipated success and realise the expected results for the benefit of the thousands of visitors and students, who visit all events throughout the days of the Salon.
