BELESEMO IMAGE
(Belesemo Trad x Farweyna by Antezyn Skowronek)
1991 to 2018
Belesemo Image was a fabulous Belesemo Trad son whose foals proved the strength of his CMK heritage. Standing 15.2 hands with the "look of Trad", he possessed an old line CMK/Davenport pedigree that featured close-up breeding with wonderful old time lineage. At his passing, he might have been the last offspring of a direct Antezeyn Skowronek daughter. Image added great strength to our program with his size, trot and beautiful liver chestnut coloring. He was a great sire with 27 foals to his credit and he perpetuated the Trad legacy. His foals inherited his size and substance and are receiving rave reviews from their owners.
Several of his offspring are currently competing on the endurance trail such as:

Magic is one of our Trad sons that assumed the mantle of heir apparent in our breeding program. With 4 close crosses to Abu Farwa, he produced the "look and ability of Trad." His pedigree was one of the finest CMK old line pedigrees as Magic is out of a Ga'zi daughter. Magic was becoming known for producing size and substance with great beauty. He has produced halter as well as performance horses such as: Belesema Rosetta - 1,835 AERC miles and Belesema Tayyara - 1155 miles and 2010 & 2011 Tevis Cup finisher.

We were excited to add this legendary stallion to our herd as an out cross for our Belesemo Trad and Belesemo Magic daughters. In addition to a thrilling endurance and show career, Sans sired numerous offspring winning in both endurance and show ring - sport horse and main ring. Sans sired some fantastic horses in the short three years we were able to use him. We still have some frozen semen for use in the future. Watch for the Sanskirt youngsters with Belesemo in front of their names on the trail in the future.

OVERLOOK FARWA
(Abu Farwa x Al Marah Zaibaq)
AHR #59738
1969 - 1998
Another important element to our breeding program was Overlook Farwa. The last breeding son of Abu Farwa, Overlook left us some outstanding performance lines in his sons and daughters to carry on in our program.
Overlook was a U.S. National Champion Cutting horse that bred on his great bone, feet and substance. Farwa sired halter and performance winners both pure and part bred.
For many years Overlook was a great ambassador for the arabian breed on the open cutting circuit and bred many quarter horse mares which was the highest tribute paid to him by fellow performance enthusiasts.
His pedigree combined both Gulastra and Skowronek blood making him the perfect compliment for our performance pedigrees. Overlook's blood can be found in our breeding program through his precious daughters and one son.
BELESEMO FARWA
(Belesemo Trad x Miss Nateza by Abu Farwa)
1990 - 2012
Farwa was a last piece of living CMK history as he was the youngest tail female Abu Farwa grandson in the world. His dam, Miss Nateza was the last living Abu Farwa daughter,out of a Witez II daughter and foaled him at age 27. Farwa was a paternal sibling to AERC and Sport Horse National Champions. Farwa is the sire of several endurance winning offspring, including Belesema Replika - 3000 miles, 41 rides - 41 completions, Sandybaar award winner, PNER Sophomore horse, and Belesemo Fire Flame, currently on the endurance trail with Correy Clinton, New Mexico . Farwa's genetic greatness will be sorely missed in the breeding program.
