The experience with Australian horses going to the UAE appears to be less than
encouraging.
Please note this information is hearsay - but it is only 2nd hand from a friend
who was just over there working in a vet hospital.
Several top Australian horses have gone over to the UAE, and have since died.
The vetting procedures are very lax, because the vets are paid by the Sheiks,
so they a more lenient than normal. After one ride recently, all but one horse
from a race ended up in the hospital ( the one exception was ridden by an
Australian).
It appears that the horses are over-ridden, and if they break down, they are
shot.
Food for thought.
