By providing sustained support to owners, breeders, and professionals across the world, the series reinforces the UAE's vision of nurturing the Arabian horse as both a cultural treasure and a sporting icon.

Just as importantly, the series carries the responsibility of safeguarding the legacy of the Arabian horse, preserving its noble heritage for future generations while presenting it in a modern, prestigious, and globally relevant form.

Among the strong contenders is Saher, winner of the 2023 and 2021 editions (by Nizam x Jezabelle by Dormane), owned by Edward Mardukhovich.
