GCAT AJMAN 2025

The initiatory Ajman leg of the Global Champions Arabians Tour (GCAT) 2025 season was inspiring, capti- vating all attendees with a stunning showcase of majestic Arabian horses. Held from January 3rd to 6th against the breathtaking backdrop of Ajman’s Al Zorah waterfront, this event marked an exhilarating start to the se- cond season of GCAT’s Europe and Middle East series. This year is fascinating with eight scintillating stages, including Ajman (United Arab Emirates), Doha (Qatar), Muscat (Oman), Riyadh (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia), Cannes (France), Valkenswaard (Netherlands), London (United Kingdom), and Prague (Czech Republic).
Even more thrilling is the opportunity for top winners from both the European and Middle Eastern stages to compete at the end of the year against champions from the Americas series (Scottsdale, Arizona- Miami Beach, Florida- São Paulo, Brazil; Brandon, Manitoba, Canada, and the final in Las Vegas, Nevada), the ulti- mate goal being the all-new Supreme World Champion Title at the World Arabian Horse Championship in December 2025.The Global Champions Arabians Tour indeed champions equestrian excellence. It attracted
the finest Arabian horses in the heart of Ajman. With an im- pressive overall prize pool of €24,000,000 during the 2025 series, handlers worldwide showcased their prodigious horsemanship skills alongside Ajman’s passionate Arabian horse community. Building on the excitement of the first season, in which Ajman Stud’s AJ Kayya claimed the prestigious ‘Horse of the Tour’ title and a share of €1.35 million in prize money, the excitement for the second season was skyrocketing. The energy and passion surrounding this first Ajman leg of the tour made it an incredible experience for all involved. Including us on the Arabian Horse Magazine team!
