Hi, can anyone give me any information about the stallion Phariz ? I have seen references to his racing career and that he won the desert marathon with HH Sh Moh'd but I cannot find any information about this by googling him. I would love to know his racing and endurance career successes and if possible any photos or any other data if anyone can help ?
Also does anyone know anything about the mare Gelma du Volday ?
thanks |

Owen Endurance bred a few youngsters by Phariz in 2007 & some are on their web site for sale.
Jenny Owen had a win on the sire... Nazzerin racing at Larkhill 1991. (Nazzerin was bred at Miss Bowditch's and Owens had him in training).

Oh yes that's right Miss Bowditch did breed him. Joan & Ian Rawnsley of Aberllwyds Stud did have him though for several years and will be able to tell you more about him, I should think they may have also had the mare you are enquiring about. My gelding by him is named Aberllwyd Ibn Phariz and is very much like his sire. |

Just seen Gelma Du Volday! She was the property of Darley Stud management when she went through the Ascot Sales in 2003 for £1000. She has a 2005 offspring by Phariz called ABERLLWYDS PHARELMA. |

He was bred by Miss Bowditch at the Dorocina Stud. He raced successfully as did his sire, Nazzerin. I think it was Beverley Deutrom (might have got that wrong) who bought him from Miss Bowditch. There is a (not very flattering) photo of him on allbreed; link below. He was a very good looking horse.
edited as I forgot the link!

Phariz was orignally owned by Sh. Hamad bin Abdullah al Thani of Umm Qarn Farms. He did win Quatar International Desert Marathon in 1997, I think he was 2nd the year before. He was then bought by Joan & Ian Rawnsley from Aberllwyds Stud nr Lampeter and they had him until he died last year.
I have a son of his (he is the bay in hand in my sig pic- this was taken at the BEF Futurity as a 2yr old, he is now 4)
I'm sure the Rawnsleys would give you more info, they probably know the mare. |
