Picture of the day: Pirouette CF
By Edouard
Posted on May 8th, 2008 in Strains, USA
I took this picture in 2002 at Craver Farms. Pirouette CF (Javera Thadrian x Piquante) is arguably one of the prettiest Asil Kuhaylah Hayfiyah mares alive today.

I have seen her picture before on the Craver website and she is GORGEOUS. A very nice mare, timeless in her looks, the very picture of a classic Arabian Horse. Congratulations and thanks for brightening my day!
