Have You Ever Seen a Jordanian Horse on the Road Like This?

Ever spotted a horse trailer cruising down the highway with a giant Jordanian flag waving in the breeze? That’s exactly what happened when Mahmoud Al Nashmi pulled over for a quick roadside chat with a team on their way to the Wadi Rum Race Marathon. What started as a simple stop turned into a heartwarming encounter with some seriously passionate horse lovers.

Headed to the Wadi Rum Race Marathon

The driver, decked out in a black shirt and camo pants, shared that they were off to compete in a 100 km Bedouin-style endurance race happening on Friday. The team made it clear that wherever they go, the Jordanian flag comes along for the ride—because representing their country is a must! Their star racer? An Arabian horse named Shaddad, who’s not just any horse—he’s registered, certified, and ready to run.

Bonding with Shaddad

When asked about his connection with Shaddad, the driver couldn’t help but gush. He described their bond as “indescribable,” saying he’s loved horses for years and that Shaddad is truly special. The love for these majestic animals runs deep, and it’s clear this isn’t just about racing—it’s about friendship and tradition.

A young boy, who’s been around horses for seven years, joined in the fun, showing off his skills and sharing his excitement for the big race. The video wraps up with Mahmoud Al Nashmi, the driver, and the boy posing proudly in front of their trailer—proving that sometimes, the best moments happen when you least expect them.
