Poland's top Arabian horses stud gets new president
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The economist appointed the new president of Poland's top-rated Arabian horses stud farm concedes that he is no horse expert but insists that he is well-suited for the job.
Last week, Marek Skomorowski was appointed head of the state-owned stud in the eastern town of Janow Podlaski that has bred many top-valued world-beaters.
On Friday he said on TVN24 that he is well-prepared for his new job. Earlier he said he admires horses, but that he had "no close contact with them."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Observers link his appointment to sweeping changes the new government is introducing to state-owned businesses, while seeking economies.
Skomorowski replaced respected president, Marek Trela, whose dismissal is believed to be linked to the sudden death in October of the adorn-laden European and world champion, 12-year-old bay mare Pianissima.
