Photo of the day: Matrubah, an asil Kuhaylat al-Krush from Saudi Arabia

“Pure Man” sent me this beautiful picture of the desert-bred mare Matrubah (Haleem x Ma’zufah), an asil Kuhaylat al-Krush from Saudi Arabia. Matrubah is owned by Prince ‘Abd al-’Aziz Al-Sudayri and graces his new Aziziyah Stud. More on this original branch of the Kuhaylan al-Krush strain in this earlier post here.
I know there is not many of you reading this blog who think that a desert bred horse cannot also be beautiful, but those of you who still think so, think again.

I am surprised to learn that there are those reading this blog who think desert bred horses are not beautiful! Although I have certainly experienced the upturned nose from Arabian “breeders” in the States. ” Ewww,” said one such person of my asil mare, “she has such a short neck.” In any case, the mare pictured above is exquisite. Thank you
