Posted - 27 Jan 2010 : 1:03:59 PM Hi all you experts out there. In 1979 I purchased a beautiful bay arab filly called Esmeralda - she was by Blue John out of a mare called Salov (by Sahr x Lovely Surprise). She had a very bad start in life but we had a very special rapport. I bred two foals from her and I would love to know how they are doing.
Her first was Jamila Amira born in 1984 by Dardriss (Darjeel/Moulton Indyana) - I sold her as a 3 year old to a lady in Shropshire, but I believe she moved to East Anglia.
Her second filly was called (but the spelling may be wrong and my memory is rubbish) Shakera - I think she was born in 1986 and again was sold as a 2 or 3 year old. I have no paperwork to look back on as my ex destroyed everything.
Does anyone have any information of their whereabouts, or if they have produced foals themselves.
Many thanks.

Posted - 28 Jan 2010 : 4:21:28 PM Oh that is wonderful. Thank you so much. Yes this is the one I bred - I called her Holly as she had such a *****ly nature - afraid of humans when she was born and very much a mind of her own, but my god she was beautiful. Had it not been for my ill health and dreadful financial situation at the time, I would not have parted with her. I wonder where she is now? Is it possible to tell? I would love to see her, if she is still alive, or her offspring. Indeed I would love to own her, or her offspring!!! Her mum (Emma) was a beautiful Arabian who sadly only had a short life, but a happy one whilst with me. Thank you again, Jan

Posted - 28 Jan 2010 : 3:58:18 PM Someone has put the following onto allbreedspedigree.com for Shakera but I don't know how accurate this is.
Shahera, dark bay/brown mare, 14.1hh, born 1986, by Asfiya out of Esmeralda. She is also listed as having two progeny.
PRINCESS JALALAH dark chestnut mare, 14.3hh, born 1995, by Shambar (Banner Blue/Shamasque) out of Shahera. (Picture from allbreeds website) Princess Jalalah has a dark bay/brown filly listed by So Black Alarabi called ALSHAMA ALARABI born 2006.
SHARRIF AL QUUA or SHARIF AL QUUA (he is on twice) a grey gelding, 15.1hh born 1993, by Kashan out of Shahera.
Someone has put on Jamila Amira but there is no progeny for her.
