your girlie looks nice too Rona , thanks for sharing !

Gosh he's well put together and really quite like my mare x

Soupdragon - you have a stunning stunning boy there! Thank you for sharing your photo's, I a sure others will enjoy them too.

Aw thanks Horseybird ! your boy Malik is very beautiful too, doesn't he have some spanish heritage ?

I have no idea, I just rescued a scrag out of a field and he turned into a champion!

PM me your email address again and I will send you his breeding - you are the expert - or better than me at Arab lines.

glad you like my boy.

Ahh yes ......

But your 'scrag' turned Champion has 4 lines to the Spanish mare ESTOPA, one of the most influential and typey Spanish arabian mares ever,

and a lovely dash of Polish too, which crosses very well with the Spanish lines !

Its no wonder hes a champion if you look at his pedigree here...

there is info on his sire and dam if you click on the names

Yes that's him! There appears to be lots of line breeding and some that are too close for my liking. We went to championatte de france - and the vet had not marked his papers properly on his vaccinations so we wasn't allowed to compete, after driving all the way to Vichy.

When we were there, we were given a valuation on him, and it is substantial, we are doing one more show with him, then I shall commence advertising him.

The thing is he jumps too. They are setting up national arab jumping classes to help with choosing a performance arab. If you look on the club sif part of the ffe site and look under ponan, you will find the jumping classes for arab's. I think adults can ride the arabs in the "E" classes anyway.

Thanks for finding that for me. What ones are the champions then? I know the father is French 5 times Champion.

Sorry...... I'm not that much of an expert !

I only know about the Spanish Arabs...sorry
But there is more info if you clic on the individual names on the pedigrees, or you can look on the HN site if you sign up.

Thank you.

Wow Horseybird, well done you he is stunning, the pedigree say's it all Estopa!!!!! I will email you the web page for where we work, look at the blood-lines.

I am aware of his value as to the points he gains when shown. I am thinking of reserving or taking and freezing some straws before he is sold. I think this is a good idea. He also jumps 1m50 free schooled. Look at my site to find the video it was a couple of years ago. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

hello, looks like he is linebred to shaker al masri, he also has some russian through negatiw, a race horse, and through comet the polish stallion noted as one of the best ever bred, i saw horses by him many years ago they were the best, great movers with lots of substance, and saw horses by marawan similar, are the red stars indicators of championship winners?

I have no idea! It is very kind of you to look into his lines, it still means nothing to me, but I am on a push to sell him before I move if possible, as both I and his handler could do with some cash!

If you have any contacts and he is sold through you or anyone then there will be a commission payment. I am aware of his substantial value. His score are usually over the 85%'s and he could have done with more muscle and flesh on him. He is fine now and has really matured and filled out!

Long time no see Tristar, hope you and yours are well Nice to see you back.
