Global Symposium on Racing Speaker: Mohanad Almokhadm
Originally from Saudi Arabia, Mohanad Almokhadm holds a B.S. and an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering. Inspired by Arrogate’s Dubai World Cup win, he shifted careers to pursue horse racing. While completing his academic journey in the Race Track Industry Program, he gained hands-on experience at Rillito Park and served as Host Manager at the 2024 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. This led to a new opportunity with Churchill Downs as part of the 2025 Kentucky Derby Host Program. Mohanad aims to apply his diverse background to strengthen and modernize the horse racing industry in Saudi Arabia.
