Daughters Sired by Raquin RA

Matisse KA (x DB Shahlaha)
1996 Grey Straight Egyptian mare
Dahman Shahwan Strain

A coveted "Shalla" daughter, Mattie graces the pasture with her dark and knowing eyes and "Queen in Training" attitude. A big bodied mare with a powerful trot and compact body - Mattie also exudes Dahman type with her short head, large jowl and big dark eye. Her dam is one of our foundation mares and a producer of stallions worldwide. We have retained all daughters of her dam at this point. Matisse is the oldest and the first to have children. Her first child is a precious pixie named Monet who now lives in Israel. With the same big dark eyes we affectionately nicknamed her "Bugsy". Her two year old filly, Quintessa has the same beautiful expression and knowing Cleopatraa eyes and has recently been purchased by MiJan Farms. Her latest foal is a super colt by Makhnificent KA - a full sibling to Monet KA. He will undoubtedly make someone a special show horse and sire - passing on those big black eyes and that powerful movement. *Matisse is tail female to *Soheir II - one of our favorite mares we had the privilege of viewing at Bentwood Farms. Matisse is due 3/05 to Makhnificent KA. Tail female to *Soheir II and heavily *Morafic bred with the addition of The Egyptian Prince through her sire Raquin RA.

1990 Grey Straight Egyptian mare
Saqlawi Strain

We welcome "Binte" back to her home and are excited about her newest foal - a spectacular colt by Makhnificent KA born June 2005! With 3 of the 4 greatgrandsires *Morafic and the 4th is the *Morafic son *Ibn Moniet El Nefous - Binte is intensely linebred. She is tall, regal mare with a beautiful expression and huge powerful trot with fabulous hock action. A show ring winner as a young mare herself she has produced the gorgeous Thee Desperado son DD Ramid for previous owner Pat Dunn. Ramid was Champion of his Class at the Egyptian Event and also not only Top Ten but second place in the Stallion class at Scottsdale! She passes on many of the characteristics that we have come to value the Rocky daughters for......... big dark eyes, long legs, very high set, long clean necks and a proud bearing.

Her name conjures images of a sultry Queen. And "Sophie" does not disappoint. A breathtaking beauty and epitome of feminine Arabian type she holds court with her visitors. Tall and elegant, with an exotic face and an ethereal quality about her that speaks to everyone who has seen her. But Sophie is more than just a pretty face, she is also a true testament to the courage found in Egyptian Arabians and their bond for their humans. Her tale started wonderfully enough, winning every time she set foot (or hoof) in the arena. First at the Egyptian Event for her first outing and named Champion World Class Fillies. Then on to a Regional Competition at the tender age of 2 where she won the qualifying Championship and was named Regional Reserve Champion Mare. Then a break from showing and she caught the eye of Christie Metz of Silver Maple Farm. Sophie represents 30 years of breeding by Janice Bush and four generations of female lines (though she even managed and cared for the fifth generation in her pedigree as well) so Janice was reluctant to sell her. Thus a partnership was formed and Sophie continued her show career, now more mature by winning Regional Champion Mare - besting the Reserve National Champion Mare Fortunate Gold. Heading for Nationals Sophie suffered a severe setback en route from Florida to the show in Albuquerque which ultimately led to a protracted course of laminitis. Her run at a National title will not occur as today she has free roam of Kehilan, and despite severe physical impairment she continues to be cheerful, loving people, patiently enduring treatments and reigning over all who come to court her. She is of course, a maternal sister to our stallion Marquis I and her dam the gorgeous Antigua Dance has been a superior producer of show ring winners.
