Lili Marlene SHF, 2004 Hamdaniyah Simriyah, USA

Lili Marlene SHF (Sergeant Major CF x Kestrel by Salutation) is a 2004 Hamdaniyah Simriyah of Davenport bloodlines bred by Fred Mimmack of Colorado. I really like this mare. She is reminiscent of some of the best-bred and best-balanced Arabians that were to be found in the 1950s and 1960s in my home country of Lebanon, and which of course traced to the same original ‘Anazah and Shammar Bedouin horses as the horses imported to the USA from the same area by Homer Davenport in 1906. They’re all one and the same.
