A recent workout winner in Canterbury, Serene Miki is no ordinary standardbred.
In fact she’s only part standardbred. She’s out of a part-Arabian mare, Sophie Serene, and is potentially the first horse with Arab bloodlines to be registered with Harness Racing New Zealand for around 70 years.
The Arabian - standardbred combo is unusual. In the early 1900s it was commonplace, but numbers dwindled.
It’s believed the last “Arabian” horse to be registered in this country was Wedgewood in July 1946.
