Congratulations to the striking young stallion, The Bandera (Alixir x Arabella MCA by Thee Infidel), for his recent Reserve Championship win in the Junior Hunter class at Scottsdale! He adds this to an impressive Top Ten finish in the Arabian Hunter Pleasure Futurity at the 2007 US Nationals in October!
Our 2008 foals are arriving regularly, and they are all we’d been hoping for and anticipating this foaling season! Check out our new foals page for daily updates on who foaled last night, descriptions of all of the foals born on the farm, and pictures. Better yet, contact us to schedule a time to come meet these youngsters for yourself!

SA Theemoondancer, an 11-year-old grey stallion, was awarded the 2007 Zone 8 Reserve Champion Amateur Owner Jumper Award by the US Hunter Jumper Association! His division was for jumps 4 feet to 4 feet 6 inches tall–quite a height! Moondancer (Thee Desperado x Ak Shalina) was bred by Sharon Kettwich, is proudly owned by Stella Conklin, and was trained and ridden to his award by Dianna Conklin.
The Sequel RCA’s full younger brother, MS Tewfik, is proving the beauty, consistency and athleticism of our bloodlines yet again. By Thee Desperado and out of his full sister, La Marsala, the 3-year-old black stallion was named 2007 Sport Horse Nationals Top Ten 2-Year-Old Colt!
Congratulations to Naem Al Jahaini and the King Abdul Aziz Arabian Horse Center of Saudi Arabia on the recent purchase and exportation of The Sequel RCA’s handsome brother MS Marsali (Thee Desperado x La Marsala). Marsali, bred by Tom and Martha Salome, is a younger full brother to our Egyptian Event Reserve Supreme Champion Stallion and up-and-coming sire The Sequel RCA.
Congratulations to Honeysuckle Rose North on their lease of the gorgeous 3-year-old stallion Mishaali RCA (Mishaal HP x Maali RCA by Ruminaja Ali). Bred and owned by Arabians Ltd., this young colt has an impeccable, champion-filled pedigree, combining the best of European and American blood.

Thee Cover Girl, a Thee Desperado daughter owned by HRH King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, produced this year’s Reserve Senior Champion Mare at Germany’s All Nations Cup! Her 2000 filly Bint Al Shamal, sired by Koronec, received her ribbon shown by our friend Frank Spoenle for King Abdullah.
At the 3rd annual Egyptian Event Israel, Thee Desperado’s daughter The Vision HG (x Belle Staar by The Minstril) was awarded the title of Senior Champion Mare! The 13-year-old black mare, already twice Israeli National Champion Mare, is producing an unparalleled legacy for owners Ariela Arabians through her sons and daughters. Her oldest son by Laheeb, Al Maraam, sired both the Senior Champion Stallion and Reserve Senior Champion Stallion this year, making The Vision granddam of both winners.
Her 2006 colt by Laheeb, Al Raheb AA, won Reserve Junior Champion Colt at both the Event and the Israeli Nationals!
