By the late eighteenth century, there was a well-established tradition of horse breeding amongst the aristocratic families in Poland, these horses having a high proportion of Oriental blood. Turkoman, Persian and Arabian horses could be found at many of the studs, usually stallions, sometimes purchased by agents sent to the Ottoman Empire in search of superior bloodstock, sometimes received as gifts from the Ottomans, or from the Shahs of Safavid Persia, who were on friendly terms with Poland-Lithuania (an aristocratic republic existing from 1569 to 1795), as both were enemies of the Ottoman Empire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first of the studs relevant to the history of the Polish Arabian is that of the Branicki family, whose seat was at Bia\u0142a Cerkiew, located in current-day Ukraine. Their breeding farm was established at Szamraj\u00f3wka in 1778, with foundation stock – two stallions and thirty mares – purchased from Stanis\u0142aw Szcz\u0119sny Potocki\u2019s Tulczyn Stud, and supplemented by local Polish mares of unknown parentage but definitely of Arabian type. The Tulczyn stallions may have been purebred Arabians; the mares, again of unknown parentage, would have been at the very least high percentage Oriental. Their studbook was created somewhat later – some sources say as early as 1803, others 1812, when the Uzin farm was established.<\/p>\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<\/br><\/p>\n
