Arabians have their own racing circuit. Most races are held at Thoroughbred race tracks across the world. The races typically are done on dirt, some on grass, they range from 4 furlongs to 1 3/4 miles, with 6 furlongs being average. Depending on where the horses live will depend on if they go clockwise or counter clockwise around the track. They can begin racing at the age of 3 years and run once every 2 to 3 weeks on average.

It depends. Any breed can be a barrel horse, its just whether the horse loves to run and has the desire to do it. If it doesn't have the desire, it will be a pain trying to force it to run. They can for a starter horse, but to get to the upper levels, you would need a horse more like a quarter horse, with good hindquarters, built for sprinting and turning on a dime. And the desire to barrel race is important too.you won't do well on a horse who doesn't like his job because he will protest all the way.
