Originally posted by TahirGari, absolutely gorgeous filly, please post some more pictures of her , and congratulations on her Daddy winning Reg 15 - fingers firmly crossed for the Nationals You mentioned 'Seif al Arab' - I remember seeing one of his colt foals at Malvern, 1991 I think, he was called Kemalazm, out of Bint Jamiellah (Makor x Aphrodite, by Mameluck). He was an amazing foal - talk about 'blow your socks off' . I know the breeder sold him on, not sure where he went, but I often think about him and wonder how he matured - he had movement, presence, charisma - the whole package IMO. Carla, xx.
Hi Carla!
I looked up Kemalazm and apparently he was sold to Saudi Arabia. He sire 4 foals 3 mares and a stallion per the Arabian Horse Datasource here in the US.
Sorry can't help you more. Every baby I've ever seen of Seif El Arab's was gorgeous...He sired 13 babies and Mr. Tony Fretwell had at least 4 babies by him-a big one I saw was a very beautiful mare that I think Mr. Fretwell raced. Hopefully some of those daughters are still in the gene pool like Jade's daughter... |

Originally posted by moatsideHi Gari, Way, way back on page 57!! of this tread you made some very nice comments about my Christmas pressie Hi Kim!
You did a great job! And what a fascinating pedigree! Very imaginative breeding...The sire O-Tejo is to Rabdan via the wonderful Anter, a gorgeous stallion known for his sweetness and loyalty...O-Tejo is a 3/4 straight Egyptian + Crabbet with the dam line tracing to the Blunts', Rodania, a Keheilan Ajuz of the Ibn Rodan-the single most successful dam line ever!
The dam, Mont Blanc is roughly 5/8's Crabbet, 1/4 Egyptian+++( some through Crabbet imports) and 1/8 Polish...with sire line to the Nazeer sire line stallion Ibn Moniet El Nefous, a renowned US straight Egyptian sire whose daughters are treasured worldwide. But the creme de la creme of the entire pedigree is the incredible dam line to Bint Helwa by the enormously successful reimport of the blood via Gara. This is the most exotic and successful of the Abbas Pasha, Seglawi Jedran lines and from this line emerged such greats as British, US National and World Champions as *Carmargue, *Simeon Shai and *FS Bengali, S Justadream, Shalie, Mustapha....
Your Christmas present should prove to be a great riding mare, loving, loyal and a terrific broodmare should you choose to breed her. Have any pictures? Would expect she is very pretty with a lot going for her so you might want to think in terms of showing her as well! In any event what a wonderful Christmas present!I have finally managed to get some half decent pics of her minus her winter wollies Your new filly is beautiful by the way
Dear Kim,
Thank you for the kind remarks about the filly. We are thrilled with her! It was breeding on paper which is a big no-no but felt that it might be worth a try. Am thrilled with the outcome. (hope to do more picts in the not too far distant future!)
Was thrilled to see your LU LU as she has such an interesting pedigree but the horse coming through - clear as if she were standing there - is Bint Helwa! Her dam line! That could be very very significant.
Thank you so much for posting the pictures...What are your plans for her?

Oh Tracey,
She must be lovely! A fabulous mover, people lover and ham sandwich rolled into one! This is a showmare! Presumably you will be showing her in hand. The sire line is to Nazeer via *El Shaklan, the dam, a Kubinec daugher is out of an Om El Azadik daughter and granddaughter of *El Shaklan. She just must be stunning and dam line goes back to the most popular Polish dam lines in the UK the Sahara line- which is a Kuhailan Moradi but always tends to look like a slightly heavier boned Seglawi. She must be magnificent. PICTURES PLEASE???? |

Love your use of vocabulary- "wild horse on hot chilli peppers!" and "biggest ham since Sir Lawrence Olivier!!" He he that description did make me chuckle!
Al Galero is very laid back. As are his parents, Emma used to write in the now defunct Arabian Link magazine with diaries written by the stallions, Borneo's used to read very much along the lines that life is one big siesta, very much the way Al Galero views things. And i remember Emma saying how they were at Paris and she had Ayat ready to go in the ring when she realised she had forgotten her number so ran back to the lorry to get it, when she returned Ayat was lying down and had gone to sleep even in her show bridle! Al Galero's temperament really is second to none.
Despite her bloodlines Rose is a hot filly but turns it on and off for the showring, really easy and laid back at home and on the lorry and then when she comes down the ramp and walks to the collecting ring then her tail goes right over her back and she is off.
I do seem to have this effect on horses though, everything at home is very laid back. My farrier has always said that all my horses are so easy, he is convinced it is because im so laid back. So anyone out there with a wild one send it to me and it will turn into an old donkey!!
So it could be a good mix, Al Galero and Rose Jamaal, the thought of a lively one is fairly exciting for me but i will have to check out the colourings. Whats the fail safe way of checking out Galeros status?
Did you manage to make Antham available for breeding in the UK this year? I know you were looking into it.
Also sorry to trouble you further but i would love to hear your thoughts on future breedings and what i should expect from www.allbreedpedigree.com/ruby+j2 She is a yearling chestnut with bright white mane and tail, the second of this colour from her beautiful black sire.
Thanks again Gari |

Emma,
It sounds like you are indeed blessed. With those kinds of temperaments it is worth a try and that is for sure. Have you seen foals from Al Galero in the past? As a general rule the SE lines tend to erase high white, as do Polish lines not containing Crabbet lines via Mahruss, Mesaoud, Rodania....
I really have to plead ignorance when it comes to color genetics.
In re Ruby J...show mare supreme, very beautiful, is my guess for her future. Again, I am definitely not a fan of multiples of Ali Jamaal whereas the El Shaklan looks well placed. Conversely you seem very well suited to handle these lines and provide a very quiet relaxed environment. Additionally with the tail female to Bint Helwa...the power is such that she could and probably would erase any negative temperament issues. (note the truly great dam lines can and do filter out a lot of negative nonsense and would bet that is why we see them more frequently than others in the show rings. Bint Helwa's is top of the line.)
I've had inquiries from Germany for Antham as well. The cost associated with shipping frozen semen are very high here. If we could get 5 together who would want to split the costs (figure a thousand pounds apiece) - forget stud fee for the first year...I'd be happy to do it but we need organization from your end. The more breedings the lower the cost. Thank you for asking. |

Hi Gari
Thanks for the quick response.
I will investigate the whole colour senario, i know my friend has her warmbloods genetically tested to see what colour genes the horses carry (apparently chestnuts are not as popular as bays), better not tell my girls they are all chestnut!
No Galero has not had any foals, i have had him since 4mnths old and initially never gave it second thought- he was just my little pony! Of course now im in the lucky position where i live on a farm and my horse numbers have increased and breeding is now possible and with his bloodlines, temperament and many successes in the ring it really is about time.
Thanks for the insight to Ruby J. I have to admit to being a huge El Shaklan fan, i blame it on the Maxwells Open days when i first got hooked on arabs, so many beautiful horses with lines to him. Which lines would you suggest i look to for her?
It is lovely to hear that Antham has made an impression in Germany too. I do imagine the costs are huge, ive only done the natural covering previously let alone AI from the UK! Im thoroughly looking forward to hearing of his foals.
Please do keep me posted on any news regarding him and the possibility of having semen here. And anyone reading this who would be interested get in touch with Gari (PS- there is a great video of him and Rushan too on you tube)!
Thanks again |

Thank you, Emma. The Maxwells have to be amongst not just the great breeders of the 20th Century but also amongst the very most astute. Pat and Joanne spotted *El Shaklan as a baby at a show in Europe and immediately began trying to acquire him. They were not able to buy him but they were the very first to use him at stud and by all the stories, he and Pat had an incredibly close bonding...The pain of having to send him back had to have been shattering for the entire family. But Arabdom has been the beneficiary of their recognition of a stallion who was probably only second to Skowronek and in the end may indeed eclipse his influence if he hasn't already!
The one thing that has lurked in the back of my mind...had he been leased to the wrong breeder...what would Arabdom look like today!? |

Hi Gari, well here it is as you asked - my temperament PIC "we can all admire their beauty but we have to live with their natures!" is how I think of it. This is my daughter Emma (left) and her friend Joanna with "Leo" aka Zobeyni Nareef (Indian Idyll - Narishka). So glad you liked it. Alexia

I have to say Athena, one passed us by if you read my article about Zaon in the AHS magazine, you will see a horse that is most precious to the Spanish breeding,but lost to the UK |

Hi Lynda!
Could you post it for those of us that might not be getting the AHS magazine?
Just realized that tomorrow is for me the 2 year anniversary of this thread! Am kind of amazed.

Hi Gari I am not sure admin would allow that, I will e mail the article and pictures to you, as I said in the article , because I only had a finite amount of space, it is a potted history of this boy, there is so much more to his life story |
