Benlarich Futhi El Arab

The stallion below is the Saqlawi Jadran Benlarich Futhi El Arab (Sidi El Thabi x Johrhemar El Lulwa), tail female to Ghazieh through the Orpen import Nabilah (Enzahi x Zamzam). He was a versatile riding horse, with a show record under saddle, and an endurance career with over 1600km, that included completing the Fauresmith National Ride in 2010, a roughly 200km ride split over three consecutive days, as well as a first place finish in the heavyweight category at the 120km at the Parys Daly Land Rover ride. In addition to his accomplishments as an athlete, owner Eduard von Moltke says that he was a very great gentleman.

His pedigree is noteworthy, as his dam, Johrhemar El Lulwa, is the granddaughter of Inzam Saklabilah, who was out of Nabilah by Gordonville Ziyadan; Ziyadan was not just the only son of the Kuhaylah Mimrahiyah mare Barakah, but also the only asil son that her fellow Orpen import Zahir got. It is unusual to see all three Orpen imports this close in an asil pedigree today.

  1. What can you say but just the best
    Cannot see a flaw in his, type, conformation or movement. Does he freeze?

    1. Unfortunately he’s dead; he does have an asil son, Benlarich Ibn Futhi, but South African stallions can’t ship semen to the U.S. because of African Horse Sickness.

    1. He has one asil son, Benlarich Ibn Futhi, foaled in 2015, out of his maternal half sister Benlarich El Yasinda.

    1. Hopefully Ibn Futhi will get some asil foals. At present, he has none registered on Logix.

  2. Very rare to see them so close in a pedigree indeed!! Nice to see old Nabilah-Shah in a pedigree too!

    1. Barakah Bash, one of the 160 km horses at SAIC this year, is also out of an Inzam Saklabilah daughter. The Nabilah tail female horses aren’t doing too badly in endurance!
