Ka’Serket Extended Pedigree

Absolut RCA: [R] A Thee Desperado [R] son, Absolut RCA was exported to Germany sometime circa 1997 and is best known for his European progeny in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. He is the full brother of Thee Dancer [R], the beautiful soul foaled in 1993 whose sweet demeanor and winning good looks are echoed in *Danseur Malakh Ai [M].

Thee Desperado: [R] Egyptian Event Junior Champion Colt in 1991, Reserve Champion Stallion at the U.S. Nationals, Unanimous Grand Champion Stallion at Scottsdale in 1994, as well as leading Egyptian Event halter sire for 12 years straight from 1996 to 2007.

The Minstril: [R] 1993 US National Top 10 Stallion and Canadian National Top 10 Stallion, he was also Egyptian Event Supreme Champion Stallion and the sire of Thee Desperado [R]. The sire of over six hundred registered foals, his is perhaps one of the most influential bloodlines for rabicano progeny.

Ruminaja Ali: [R] U.S. Reserve National Champion and multi-U.S. National Champion, as well as sire of National Champions in halter and performance.

TheEgyptianPrince: [R] A Gleannloch Farm stallion, he was a *Morafic [R] son and a Nazeer [R] grandson.

*Morafic: [R] A Nazeer [R] son, Morafic was imported to Gleannloch Farms in 1965 as a nine-year-old. Prior to that, he was a source of national pride in Egypt, leaving behind 56 get at the time of his exportation, eleven of whom would also later be exported to the U.S. He went on to become one of the most influential sires in Arabian history, and certainly the most influential sire at Gleannloch, siring numerous National Champions and stamping future generations with his refined head and dark eyes via get who became influential sires in their own right, including The Egyptian Prince [R].

*Ansata Ibn Halima: [R] Perhaps the most legendary Arabian sire in history; U.S. Top Ten Stallion in 1966, 1967, and 1969. Son of Nazeer [R], one of the most influential SEA sires in human history, and possibly also the ultimate source of the “rabicano gene” in modern Arabian horses.

Moniet El Nefous: [R] Often referred to as the “Queen” of Egyptian Arabian broodmares, this flaxen chestnut mare bred by the Royal Agricultural Society in Egypt was pure-in-strain Saklawi Jedran and produced thirteen influential foals in her lifetime, including Bint Moniet El Nefous [R] and *Tuhotmos [R], the number one sire of the Egyptian Agricultural Organization’s breeding program until his exportation in 1973, after which he sired National Champion horses in Dressage and Trail as well as halter.

Shaikh Al Badi: [R] A *Morafic [R] son; a multi-class A halter champion as well as U.S. National Futurity Reserve Champion and a leading sire of champion horses.

Tammen: [R] The great chestnut stallion owned by Patrick Swayze and Lisa Niemi; 2002 and 2005 Egyptian Event Leading Halter and Performance Sire; 2004 and 2006 Leading Performance Sire. A producer of fantastic get, especially mares (Tammen produced only 23 sons out of a foal crop of 86, one of which was Kuhaylan Roh), we chose Tammen as a model and source for our breeding program at Blue Jackal Arabians in 2010, and continue those lines now here at Silk Road Arabians, not because of the celebrity status of his owner, but because of how Patrick Swayze used that status to further the educational programs of the Arabian Horse Association, and most especially their programs for Youths. After all, the entire purpose of including real horses in model horse pedigrees is to educate: to ignite an undying interest in the real horses and the real breeds.

Abenhetep: [R] Appearing twice in this pedigree, Abenhetep [R] was a regional halter winner and sire of other regional winners in halter and performance, as well as a paternal brother to National Champions in western pleasure and to National winners in English pleasure and at halter. His dam, *Omnia [R], was a 3/4 sister to National Champion Park and Native Costume and National Champion Sire *Sakr+++ [R].

*Ibn Hafiza: [R] Imported from Egypt by Gleannloch Stud in 1970 at age 11 to serve as an outcrop stallion for Nazeer mares, he was a half brother to Sultan [R], and the sire of multiple halter and performance champions.

*Talal: [R] A Nazeer [R] son, he ran in over forty races, six of which he won, with a total of twenty-seven finishes in the ribbons before he was imported to the U.S. at age 10. He was also a trained dancing horse, though he refused to do so on-cue, hence his sale overseas. Later in life, he was seen dancing on his own, without a rider or a saddle. (Apparently dancing was great, so long as it was his idea!) He was the winner of multiple halter championships and was proclaimed National Top Ten at the age of 12.

Ansata Halim Shah: [R] Son of one of the world’s most influential Arabian sires, *Ansata Ibn Halima [R], and grandson of Nazeer [R], he was an international champion and sire of international champions and has been acclaimed as one of the most influential Egyptian Arabian sires to date, worldwide. His influence is felt at least three times in this pedigree.

*Bint Shaams: [R] Listed in 1983 Arabian Horse Registry records as a 1956 grey mare bred in Egypt by the EAO and imported by Gleannloch in 1970, she is the odd offspring of two non-grey parents, which is utterly incompatible with the general laws of coat color inheritance. This suggests that she may have been a maximum sabino, though neither parent obviously carries sabino traits, either.

OT Sara Moniet RSI: [R] Arabian Horse Association 2011 Distance Horse of the Year; High Point 50-99 mile Endurance horse; recipient of the American Endurance Ride Conference War Mare Award and the Belesemo Arabians Pioneer Award for the Heavyweight Division; recipient of the Drinkers of the Wind performance award by the Institute of the Desert Arabian Horse.

Alcibiades: [R] A consistent producer of “flashy” rabicano get, he was pure-in-strain Saklawi Jedran in the tail line, by *Rashad Ibn Nazeer [R] (listed as 1955 bay, a Nazeer [R] son) and out of *Bint Moniet El Nefous [R] (listed as 1957 chestnut, a Nazeer [R] daughter)
