American Girl on the Move
Congratulations to Yorklyn Arabians on their acquisition of BH American Girl. American Girl is one of *Mishaal HP's most beautiful and most successful daughters, and her dam is a maternal sister to Yorklyn's own superstar stallion Justynn. We look forward to watching her and her offspring take their place in Yorklyn's internationally succesful breeding program. |
2010 Egyptian Event
It was a big show string that took off from Franklin this year for Lexington - and they didn't fail to bring home the ribbons! While the show ring was great, the highlight of the week was undeniably the "Meet Mistaz" party on Thursday afternoon, where hundreds of his fans came out to see Mistaz at his first appearance at the Event in at least five years. His week culminated in being one of the highest selling EBC auction breedings!
Amateur owners Jeanne Abernathy and Miller Pinson had a blast in the 2 & under Colts ATH class, both bringing home Top Ten ribbons with BH Bonavox and Ebriz SHF. Both colts also placed Top Ten with Jill Girardi Thomas in their open classes - Yearling Futurity 4/15-12/31 and 2 Year Old World Class colts. Miller and SoMira SHF garnered a "repeat" of last year's amateur win in the amateur mares class, winning Top Ten as one of the youngest entries in the 3 & over mares class.
Jill and Miller enjoying the Gala.
BH American Girl went Top Ten in the 4 & 5 Year Old Mares Class with Jill Girardi Thomas, just before being purchased by Yorklyn Arabians. And not to be satisfied with just halter ribbons, straight Babson stallion Masada Mazal had a triumpant return to the Event with a strong Top 3 Finish in the Hunter Pleasure Championship. |
2010 Foals
Desperados Mona Lisa delivered her much anticipated first foal - a filly - by MB Mistaz on July 13. This little one is everything we wanted in the cross - beautiful, intelligent, and full of personality. Please schedule a visit soon to come meet her - you'll be glad you did!
The Aurora (The Minstril x
AK Asha Nafia) delivered a gorgeous colt by Las Vegas Top Five and Event Reserve Champion Scapa around midnight June 30. A full brother to 2009 colt Escapade SHF, this little one shares his brother's beautiful head and intelligence. Aurora's 2008 colt Ebriz SHF (by Thee Asil) picked up two more Event Top Tens this year in both World Class 2-year olds and ATH 2 & under.
Nordic Britanna delivered a beautiful bay filly by EP Vega (Ali Aten x HF Allure) on June 2, 2010, just two days before Vega was crowned US Egyptian Event Champion Stallion, 6-7 years old. Nordic's 2009 colt by Bellagio RCA was also named Top Ten in the Amateur Colts 2 & under and Top Ten in the Yearling Futurity that week! |

Welcome Mona Lisa Richard, Amanda, & Miller Pinson of SEA Horse Farm are delighted to announce the purchase of Desperados Mona Lisa. We have known Mona Lisa practically since she was born, and celebrated her first birthday with her beloved owner Becki Liberman at the 2006 Egyptian Event when Becki and Mona won the 2 & Under ATH Novice Fillies class. Mona is a treasure in many ways, and we cannot wait to see her first foal, by US Futurity Top Ten Stallion MB Mistaz, in July 2010. Many thanks to Priscilla McCammon for making this possible.

The Mistaz Movement
We are thrilled and honored to announce the purchase of MB Mistaz. We have searched the world for a stallion who possesses his qualities.
Just to stand near and be in the presence of this regal 16-year old stallion will leave you awestruck. He has so much to contribute to today’s horses - type, tail carriage, perfect legs, an extreme upright neck - and he trots like no other Straight Egyptian stallion. His sire, US National Top Ten Stallion *Ibn Safinaz, and his legendary dam Imperial Mistilll live on through this US National Top Ten Futurity Stallion.
He is a rare gift!

Music City Arabian Show
What a show! Brookhill and trainer Jill Girardi Thomas took six horses to the show - the first ever show for four of the horses!! We consider this our "home show" since it is only 1/2 hour away in Murfreesboro, and we are very proud of winning a halter championship each of the last two years (BH Opening Statement - Junior Champion colt 2006, Rimaraa - Junior Champion Filly 2007). Well, star mare BH American Girl made sure it was a three-peat, bringing home the 2008 Senior Champion Mare title (pictured at right, Lisa Abraham photo)! American Girl and owner Jéanne Abernathy also captured the Amateur to handle mare title. Jéanne went reserve in this class last year with American Girl's full sister BH Mishaala Justina, so this was a sweet win.
2-year old colt Zahbaad Zahir did his part at his first horse show, winning Reserve Junior Champion Colt. His stablemate Zaleeh Zahir, also at her first show, came through in winning fashion, capturing the blue in the 2-year old filly class. Geldings Amir Asil and RTA The Phoenix both came in reserve in the 2-year old and 3 & over gelding halter classes with Jill, respectively. Amateur handler Miller Pinson then stepped to take reserve in the Gelding AOTH class. 5-year old stallion Tango Bey, at his first show, came in third in Sport Horse in Hand Open & ATH with great scores. While Friday was a madhouse, finishing up all these classes before 1 p.m., we are very glad to have another successful show behind us. Congratulations to trainer Jill Girardi Thomas and owners SEA Horse Farms, Zahir Arabians, and Tom Rabbitt for such a successful show! |
BreyerFest
Jéanne and Jacklyn traveled to BreyerFest in July to celebrate straight Egyptian stallion Thee Desperado being immortalized as a Breyer model horse. We enjoyed spending time with Randi Clark and Judy Sirbasku of Arabians LTD, and most importantly Desperado's son Pimlico RCA (pictured at left with Jacklyn)! Collecting Breyer horses is a hobby for Jacklyn, and she nominated Thee Desperado a few years ago for this honor. She has now been featured on the Arabians LTD website and an Arabian Horse Times' feature in August 2008.

Welcome MB Satila
We are thrilled to announce the addition of MB Satila (Imperial Saturn x Zandai Zamila) to our broodmare band. Satila has a spectacular pedigree - five out of the seven stallions in the first 3 generations are US Top Ten or better! Her female lines are just as impressive as she carries the blood of the famed Imperial Mistilll and the "Nile Dynasty" as well as Ansata foundation mares *Ansata Bint Zaafarana and *Ansata Bint Misr. She has three lines to Alaa El Din.
We are also pleased to welcome Satila's 2008 filly by the black stallion Midnight Bahim, a grandson of US National Champion Ibn Morafic. Satilla's Dancer (pending) is a very upright bay filly with the athleticism, great temperament, and freedom of motion you would expect from her pedigree which is a combination of the best of Gleannloch, Ansata, and Imperial. Both Satila and Dancer are Hadban Enzahi strain, tail female to Nazeer's dam Bint Samiha. |
Rimaraa safely in Australia 
Congratulations to Mulawa Arabian Stud in Australia on their purchase of the beautiful *Marwan Al Shaqab daughter Rimaraa (right). She is a 2009 Top Ten Mare at the Australian National Championships and has been bred via embryo transfer to Magnum Fourty Four. We congratulate the Farrell's on their purchase and wish them all the best with this great mare. You can check out Mulawa's website here. |
