"The ARB is to be commended for this historical decision. Additionally, I look forward to further discussion on this matter among all IFHA member countries to further two key objectives of the IFHA - to coordinate and harmonize the rules of the member-countries regarding breeding, racing & wagering and to ensure the quality and fairness of racing in the interest of both the breeding and the public”.
