The very best of Poland – the world’s most celebrated and respected source of Arabian horse excellence – is once again on offer during Polish Arabian Horse Days 2026. The collections in both the prestigious Pride of Poland and the aspiring Summer Sale have been carefully curated to offer the very best of what has made Poland the most reliable Arabian breeding programme in the world over the last seven decades, creatively combined with the most appealing modern genetics capably of succeeding at the elite level on the international stage.
Among the marquee attractions on offer in Pride of Poland 2026 is Michałów’s powerhouse Poganinka (El Omari x Pentra by Poganin), a medal winner at the highest level all across Europe since her earliest days in the show-ring. A prototypical Polish mare in motion, Poganinka never fails to earn perfect 20s for her phenomenal movement every single time she sets foot in the ring, routinely elevating her total score to the highest in the ultra-competitive mare division. Already a Silver Champion at both the Polish National Show and the European Championships, Poganinka, still in her prime, is ready to expand her long list of impressive accolades for a fortunate new owner. With a pedigree steeped in Polish elite – including invaluable crosses to legendary Polish matrons Emanacja, Emigrantka, Emigracja, Arra, Pentoda, Premiera, Parma and Premia – Poganinka also promises to be a reliable source of the next generation of excellence in the breed.
Representing the pinnacle of excellence from Janów Podlaski in the Pride of Poland is the captivating Pila (Abyad AA x Piba by Gazal al Shaqab), an irresistibly alluring dark bay mare of classic desert style and appeal. An esteemed show horse with a long list of achievements including Bronze at the European Championships and Top Ten honours at the World Championships as a mare, Pila never fails to deliver a superbly scored performance, earning impressive scores that exemplify the breed ideal across all critical categories of evaluation. The cherished daughter of Ariela Arabians’ Abyad AA (Nadel al Jamal x Al Amal AA by Halim Shah I), a direct descendant of breeding icons The Vision HG, Ansata Sinan, Thee Desperado and Ansata Halim Shah, Pila represents the reliable straight Egyptian outcross that has worked remarkably well with the Janów Podlaski broodmare band in the new millennium. Maternally, Pila is a member of Janów’s unrivalled dam family of superstars – the ‘P’ line descending from the legendary Pilar, Pipi and Pilarka – with her precious dam Piba (Gazal al Shaqab x Pilar by Fawor), a full sister to the late great Pinga – the venerated World Champion Mare who was also named twice Best in Show at the Polish National Championships, after winning in spectacular style as both as filly and a mare.
The best of Białka is epitomised in the elegant Ejna (D Kaheel x Elwimia by Ascot DD), another outstanding example of blending the best of modern genetics with the classic bloodlines of Poland. The daughter of the Dubai Stud-bred D Kaheel, Ejna is blessed with the incomparable excellence of FA el Rasheem, the unsurpassed source of quality, refinement and exotic type in the breed worldwide. With additional influences from outcross sires Ascot DD and Enzo, both of whom left an enduring, positive impact in Poland, Ejna traces tail female to the always reliable dam line of Wołoszka through Ellora, an immensely important family of mares responsible for the legendary Kajora, dam of Living Legend Gazal al Shaqab. Having proven herself a formidable contender in the show-ring as multiple-medal winner, Ejna promises to be a consistent show-ring performer as well as a brilliant breeding prospect for those looking for a rising superstar.
Comprised of fifteen immensely appealing mares and fillies on offer, with Poganinka, Pila and Ejna joined by daughters of World Champions Ekstern and Kahil al Shaqab, straight Egyptian Al Ayal AA, European Champions Picasso di Mar and Ascot DD, and respected sires Haash OSB and Mutabahi al Hawajer, Pride of Poland 2026 is once again showcasing the best of Poland – past and present – with tremendous opportunity awaiting those looking for only the very best.
With an additional twenty-four horses available in the Summer Sale, including daughters of the World Champions QR Marc, Excalibur E.A. and Kahil al Shaqab, sons of World Champions Morion and Equator, and the exclusive offer of direct daughters of two of Poland’s most venerated mares of all time – the illustrious Platinum World Champions Emandoria (Gazal al Shaqab x Emanda by Ecaho) and Pianissima (Gazal al Shaqab x Pianosa by Eukaliptus) – Polish Arabian Horse Days promises to be the must attend event of the summer.
With so much to discover, experience, and commemorate, please plan to join us in Poland from 7 to 11 August as the world comes together to celebrate the best of the Arabian horse.
