The International Federation of Horseracing Authorities will host its annual International Conference of Horseracing Authorities at its Paris, France headquarters on Oct. 7. Horse welfare and public perception will be the main topics of conversation.

The morning session of the conference will feature an international panel moderated by media presenter Rishi Persad and featuring John Gosden (by pre-recorded interview), retired French trainer Criquette Head, Japanese assistant trainer Yoshitake Hashida and Ezequiel Valle, a director of Argentinian stud farm Haras Firmamento.

During the afternoon sessions, UK Member of Parliament and former UK Sports Minister Tracey Crouch will deliver the keynote address on horse welfare and public perception. Other speakers during the afternoon include Dr. Rick Arthur, the equine medical director of the California Horse Racing Board; Brant Dunshea, the BHA’s chief regulatory officer; and Dr. Brian Stewart, the head of veterinary regulation, welfare, and biosecurity policy for the Hong Kong Jockey Club.

The conference will be steamed live on the IFHA’s website, with replays available in the days following the event.
