Welcome to the Crabbet Organisation

The Crabbet Organisation aims to promote and perpetuate the influence of Arabian horses descended from those bred by Lady Anne and Wilfrid Scawen Blunt and their daughter Lady Wentworth at Crabbet Park and Sheykh Obeyd.

Here you will find information on these traditional horses that still exhibit the toughness, beauty and athleticism of the original desert war horses to which they trace.
