Åbuen Farm · Hästveda · Sweden
Where Arabian tradition meets performance.
A family-owned Swedish stable building a focused future in Arabian racing, breeding, horse care and equine performance.
Our foundation
One family. One stable. A long game.
1919 by Shelby is not built around quick promises. It is built horse by horse, season by season, with the family close to every decision.
From Åbuen Farm in Hästveda, Thomas and Tanja Shelby combine the heritage of the purebred Arabian with a modern, commercial and welfare-first approach. Racing proves the programme. Breeding carries it forward. The farm keeps it real.

From the paddock to the line.
Calm before the start. Power from the gates. The fight for position. Then the final drive when preparation has to become instinct.
The racetrack is the truth

Raced with intent.
Our racing decisions begin with the horse: soundness, readiness, race conditions and a clear reason to compete.
