The Harwood Stud embraced the racing of Arabians for over thirty years. They had many successes with the good sound stock of Harwood. First Joe Norman, stud groom and notably ex National Hunt Jockey lent his expertise and then Georgie Moore took on the training with his help. Monica Calvert’s aim at Harwood was to breed beautiful horses that were also excellent riding horses with good limbs, conformation and clean wind. Her racehorses ably advertised this and many went on to do well in the world of endurance riding.

Kasadi was a tremendous influence on the riding horses and racehorses. His sons, daughters, grandsons and grand-daughters won races and remained sound after finishing their racing seasons and went on to new careers. Sha’baan and Saker also were predominant sires for Harwood.
