As some folks asked me and especially the new owner Mr. Donald Duke boddered me for long, I finally will share a picture with you of Samsara - UK new colt. It's the first time his new owner will see him to, please don't be to harsh on him! Wait till he's shipped! haha

The colts name is Kareem Al Rayyan (Ashhal Al Rayyan x Wajba Al Rayyan), he's a full brother to Amaar Al Rayyan, this years Qatar int. reserve junior champion colt.

Some poeple before were asking if crossing and doubling bloodlines is ok! Well this colt is half brother half sister : 2x Safir, further he has 5x Halim Shah and I don't know how many times Nazeer!!! I geuss as he proves and his brother proves their is no harm in it if it's done right. = Two different females lines, "Rayyan's finest" Ashhal Al Rayyan by Ansata Majesta = Dahmah Shawanieh - Farida line. and Mother Wajba Al Rayyan out of Ansata Sharifa = Dahmah Shawanieh - Bukra / Sabah line.

I think through his strong breeding he might be a perfect match for some of the outcrossed and even same line bred mares at Samsara, hopefully the Imperial Kamill daughters will be matching great as thats Donalds hope.

Dear Donald and Suzy, congratulations, all the best of luck my friend.

Beautifull colt

WHAT A BOY !!!!!

Can't wait to see him!! When will he arrive in the UK????

Wow, what a cracker. A worthy rival for Kamill, they will be a wonderful pair.

Good luck with him and I hope he fulfills all your dreams. I am a big kamill fan and I can see he will have a rival for my heart!

I downloaded this photo this morning and am rapidly becoming obsessed - what a beautiful colt! What an eye! Looking forward to seeing him when he arrives in England - September, I believe? He is truly spectacular.

Congratulations Mr. Duke for this beautyful boy!!! May all your (breeding)dreams come true with him, he´s soooo nice!!!

Wow, what an eye!
Will he stay a liverchestnut?

Congratulation !!
all the best with him !

He looks very beautiful, indeed. But all I see is just a head....

I am sure the rest of him will be just as good!

His dam's details do not show up on the database...why is that? Ansata Sharifa is there but not her daughter, Wajba Al Rayyan...

That's one beautiful colt!

I think elsewhere his dam's name is spelled "Al Wajba Al Rayyan", but that probably won't show up on the database either.

Bart, this colt is WONDERFUL, so young and such an incredible head!!!! Congratulations to his new owner with my best wishes for a GOLDEN future in UK, to have such a precious jewel coming from Al Rayyan farm is a great priviledge and sure, a source of great happiness,

All the best and please, Donald and Suzy keep us posted, we would love to see how this wonderful colt will grow into a magnificent stallion!!!!!!

Have now tried Al Wajba Al Rayyan but nothing!!!!

Many congratulations to you Donald and Suzy on importing such an impressive colt. Beautiful head and big poppy eyes! Keep us posted as to his development , I,m sure he will be an absolute "stunner"! Look forward to seeing him in the show ring. Best Wishes, Dot Brandie. Templar Croft Arabians, Scotland.

Thanks to Donald - have found his dam on Al Rayyan's site - GORGEOUS!!!!

Very Very Nice.
Will be great to have new bloodlines in the UK. Best Wishes to the Duke`s

Dear Sadika,

Qatar didn't produce a studbook for a few years, they are horrebly behind! What to say! This year their will be one so the registry can update the database.

Al Wajba Al Rayyan is by Safir (Salaa El Dine x Aisha) x Ansata Sharifa (Ansata Ibn Shah x Ansata Samantha).

You can indeed find her back at our webside.

Take Care, Best Regards, Bart.

congratulations to this beautiful colt!
what an interesting breeding programm, to combine some of the best horses of the programms of dr. nagel and ansata (exotic beauty and harmony) with the athletic abilities of the imperial stud!
hope to see a website with many pictures soon!!!

best regards and good luck with him

Is there a homepage for the colt's new home, or is it samsara.be ?!

No, there is no homepage...

Thanks for the explanation Bart!

Any more photos of Kareem please Bart?????!!!!!!

I do so love the photos taken in the Middle East - always looks fantastic light which we sadly enjoy so rarely here in the UK.
Would love to see him alongside his dam...

Hello Bart ,

Thanks Chantal, I'll think about it.
My baby sister Marie is right here right now! For the first time I'm not under hers but shes under my wing! Haha.

Take Care, Thanks Again. Bart.

How is Kareem doing? Any new photos?? Not long until he comes to the UK now!!!!!!

Dear Sadika,

Meanwhile Kareem is weaned and alone in a box now! Not so happy but in order to have a safe transport he needs to learn those things. Transport will be delayed till end september.

No pictures it's so hot here horses only come out at night, we a regularly in the 50 ties now, a really bad summer. Worse since 5 years!

Thanks again for your interest and support,
Bart.

Thanks for the quick update. Have to wait a little longer to see him then!
Any spare sun PLEASE direct to UK - the Arab Horse Society Show starts tomorrow for 3 days (fingers crossed Imperial Kamilll comes on Saturday!!!) and some sunshine would be appreciated (not seen much of it recently!)

Dear Sadika,

Sorry to be the barer of bad news,Kamilll will not be at the British Nationals Saturday,last week he was running a temperature his final work preperation
was cancelled and the vets drew and tested his blood nothing serious ,start of a virus he has picked up.

Susy has done a great job with him he was just short of his fighting weight so to speak.Next year is another year.

Regards

Donald

I hope that Kamilll recovers quickly from the virus. Hopefully next year will be his year at the Nationals!

Mike

Sorry to hear about Kamill's virus Donald. He will be sorely missed by all his fans at Malvern. Do hope he recovers quickly and as you say, next year he will excel I,m sure at Malvern and elsewhere. Hope you are both keeping well. Be sure to keep us all posted about the scheduled September arrival of your new boy! Kind Regards, Dorothy Brandie. Templar Croft Arabians, Scotland.
