SARGA.CO—In the world of horse racing, various stables have etched their names in history thanks to the success they have achieved. Not only does it produce the best horses, but it also has a significant impact on the development of the horse racing industry in Indonesia.
This stable based in East Java has been established since 1990. Formed from Kusnadi Halim's love for equestrian sports, he then began to form a racing horse team until now.
Kusnadi finally established the Yayasan Halim Sempurna (KHS) in 2023 to support the works and achievements of the nation's children in the field of sports, especially equestrian.
In its mission, this foundation aims to provide equestrian sports education of international quality, enhance local-to-international cooperation, conduct research activities, and develop funding sources and create opportunities.
Kusnadi's experience and dedication in studying equestrian sports and developing this stable have yielded significant results. The King Halim Stable team has achieved various accomplishments, even at the national level.
Victory after victory has come from the top horses of King Halim Stable in the prestigious Kejuaraan Nasional Indonesia Derby in 2016, 2018, and 2024. Then in the Tiga Mahkota Seri I Cup & Pertiwi Cup 2024, the Pekan Olahraga Nasional (PON) and the Kejuaraan Nasional ke-58 Pacuan Kuda Pordasi 2024 Seri II. King Halim Stable also managed to clinch the championship titles in 2023 at the Piala Tiga Mahkota Pordasi Seri II & Pertiwi Cup, Piala Tiga Mahkota Pordasi Seri II & Pertiwi Cup, and the Piala Raja Hamengku Buwono X Ke-13.
King Halim Stable prepares its horses very well and keeps them well-maintained for various championships. Some of the horses in this stable are Lady Jay, Queen Milano, Queen Thalassa, King Hector, Venetian Star, Queen Ariana, Luxotica, White Snow KH, and many more.
Central Java has a stable that has achieved many proud accomplishments, namely, Eclipse Stable. Not much different from other stable owners, Iman Hartono, the owner and founder of Eclipse, started everything from his love for animals.
The name 'Eclipse' itself was derived from the name of the ancestor of the Thoroughbred horse type born in France in 1764, during a lunar eclipse. In its record, it is known that the horse Eclipse never lost in its races, so Iman hopes that with this name, his horses will achieve many accomplishments.
Iman started building stables in 2007 and extensively studied horse pedigrees and genetics. He also learned the procedures for caring for and preparing horses for races. His persistence and eagerness to learn eventually yielded impressive results.
Various prestigious achievements have been attained by Eclipse Stable. From the Pacuan Kuda Nusantara Derby Triple Crown Seri I in 2023, the Kejuaraan Seri I Piala Tiga Mahkota in 2022, to the Kejuaraan Pacuan Kuda Hamengku Buwono X Cup in 2019. In addition, there are still many more remarkable achievements recorded by the best horses of Eclipse Stable.
That achievement is certainly also due to the horses that are well cared for and trained in their respective classes. Among them are Tudor Eclipse, Bella Eclipse, Caesar Eclipse, Kimberly Eclipse, Oduscha Eclipse, Shakira Eclipse, Montoya, Kimberly Eclipse, Rocky Eclipse, and many more.
The stable widely known for the achievements of its outstanding horses also hails from North Sulawesi, namely Bendang Stable. Mario Bahar, the second generation owner of this large stable, continues the tradition of its glory.
Previously, Mario did not open a farm at his stable and only focused on racing. The horses that competed were bought from outside Bendang Stable, until finally, Mario started learning and trying to create his own farm.
Mario has been introduced to horses since he was a child. His love for horses made him aspire to develop the best racing horses.
He learned many things related to the world of horses. He also delved into the pedigree and genetics of racehorses. From breeding, caring for, to training horses to conquer the racetrack.
Thanks to his hard work and efforts in developing Bendang Stable, Mario and his team successfully introduced their horses, achieving various championships.
With perseverance and extraordinary effort, various prestigious achievements have been attained by Bendang Stable. Among them in 2024 are the Jateng Derby dan Piala Mahkota Seri I & Pertiwi Cup.
Then in 2023, they also won the Kejuaraan Nasional Pacu Kuda Pordasi Ke-57 Piala Presiden, the Kejuaraan Pacu Kuda Piala Gubernur Sumatera Barat, and the Kejuaraan Pacuan Kuda Jogja Derby Piala Raja Hamengku Buwono X Ke-13.
And in 2022, this stable also won the Kejuaraan Nasional Pacuan Kuda Susi Air Cup Nusantara Derby.
The top horses from Bendang Stable include Surya Nagari, Suko Nagari, Sukma Nagari, Sunspear Nagari, Minasari, Sakura Nagari, Lyana Nagari, Princess Theatre, Balerion Nagari, and many more.
Legendary stables in the history of horse racing are not only known for their success on the track but also for their contributions to the development of the horse racing industry itself. They created a legacy through champion horses, talented trainers, and a continuously evolving training and breeding system.
From King Halim Stable, Eclipse Stable, and Bendang Stable, they have become symbols of quality in training. These stables have left an indelible mark in the history of horse racing.
Their success is not just about winning on the track, but also about the philosophy, dedication, and vision that have allowed them to shape the future of horse racing for generations to come.
