The Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia (JCSA) was established in 1965 and today is pursuing a considered and long-term strategy to rise from its status as a Part II country, a promotion that was achieved in October 2021, to a Part I country in the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities ranking lists. Chaired by HRH Prince Bandar Bin Khalid Al Faisal, the JCSA is charged with building a world-class horse racing industry that has a positive impact on the country’s sporting, cultural and economic sectors, while promoting Saudi Arabia internationally and strengthening racing across the GCC.
