Over 700 individuals from 42 countries on six continents registered to attend the International Thoroughbred Breeders' Federation's (ITBF) third annual webinar held this past Thursday.
Some of the highlights from the webinar include “Aga Khan Studs – A Centenary of Success” presented by legendary journalist, author and television racing presenter Brough Scott MBE. Scott was joined by French Studs manager Georges Rimaud, who answered a variety of questions submitted by attendees from all over the world.
ITBF's Vice Chairman, Dr. Des Leadon, then introduced Professor Anne Couroucé of Nantes University, who discussed the highly concerning EHV Neurological form. Couroucé gave her first-hand experience and subsequent research findings. Her presentation identified the nature of the specific symptoms manifested in relation to the differing environments and disease spread, a vital component in protecting the Thoroughbred world against the devastating consequences of an outbreak.
The video recording of the webinar for all those who were not able to attend the live event is available now. Click here to view the full film “A Game of Chess with Nature–Celebrating 100 years of the Aga Khan Studs.”
