It was 1977. The young breeder Jerzy Białobok was always interested in oriental horses. He was drawn to purebred horses. In order to get to know them, you had to get an internship at Arabian studs. There were only two - Janów Podlaski and Michałów. Engineer Białobok came to the Horse Racing Track in Służewiec. He spoke with directors Andrzej Krzyształowicz and Ignacy Jaworowski. There were enough trainees in Janów Podlaski, Jaworowski said that he could come to Michałów. It was August 15, 1977.

There was no relationship with horses in the Białobok family. Father Stefan was a geneticist. He was interested in forest trees. He graduated from the Warsaw University of Life Sciences, and before 1939 he earned his doctorate at the University of Berlin. Grandfather Jan Kanty Białobok worked at the Scientific Institute in Puławy and dealt with trees and shrubs. There is a silver spruce, blue called Białobok, not exceeding two and a half meters in height.
My father, said Jerzy Białobok, worked in science and was a professor of the Polish Academy of Sciences at the Institute in Kórnik. So there was some breeding tradition. Working horses in Kórnik were used to work in nurseries on the Kórnik farm. My mother graduated from a gardening school in Poznań and worked in Kórnik. Grandfather on the maternal side, Tadeusz Grabowski, was a professor at the Jagiellonian University, then in Poznań he headed the Department of Romance Studies and dealt with the literature of the Romantic period. I was obsessed with horses.
