Bakil at the time had arenas dedicated to horse racing such as the ruins of the Huptala Stadium in Wala, [[Ashura]]. The sport has evolved over time. Today it is overseen by the Imperial Equestrian Society. The society has a list of breeds which are regarded as premier racing breeds. The society recognizes events for different horse statures and builds and has events ranging from short distance sprints to long-distance endurance races. Short distance sprints usually feature large and long-limbed thoroughbreds while endurance races feature stockier and shorter ponies.
Short distance racing tends to attract more attention. The Imperial Equestrian Society recorded over 360 billion [[Packilvanian dinar]] of horse betting transactions in the country dedicated to short distance racing out of 400 billion. The Sabrahan Racecourse is the largest course in the country by seating capacity and is located in the city of Medayin in [[Iganar]], seating over 30,000 people. The largest annual race by number of participants is the Imperial Ascot (which was briefly known as the People's Ascot during the rule of the [[Packilvanian Communist Party]]) with over 1,000 participating horses and jockeys. The most accomplished jockeys include Fadwamoon Sohadek, Wasnabriya Olhed, and Qasadan Kumluyeed. The country has over 700 Jockey Clubs for thoroughbred and harness horses.
== Yatching ==
Yatching in Packilvania traces is origins to the sailing traditions of the coastal people on ships known as [[W:dhow|dhows]] which served as transport, fishing and naval vessels based on the configuration and size, according to Thariam Faldoon. The sport of racing is believed to have emerged from the play racing of ships. Among pirates, racing ships was a peaceful way to settle disputes about territorial boundaries.
Although most Yatching takes place off the southern coast, inland Yatching takes place in the large lakes in [[Jumhurikesh]]. The Imperial Yatching Association brings together over 560 Yatching Clubs. Besmali Duhavid, Ribaan Kilion, and Suleiman Peroon are well known professional Yatching champions. Recognissed yatching modes include modern, freestyle, and traditional.
