Seventy-two imported horses arrived in Tianjin Binhai International Airport on a charted plane on Feb 11.

After undergoing quarantine procedures, these thoroughbred horses will be transferred to an isolation site in Tongzhou district of Beijing for further quarantine inspection.

They are scheduled to be finally delivered to their buyers in Shuozhou of Shanxi province for riding, racing, performance and entertainment.
