Some additional connections:
“Jeral Ibn-Tuerish” is none other than Jarallah Ibn Tuwayrish, a Gmassah Bedouin who got his marbat of Dahman Amer directly from Ibn Himsi from the same tribe.
Jarallah Ibn Tuwayrish was the breeder of the several Dahman Amer horses that the Tahawi tribe acquired, including the Tahawi foundation stallion Dahman Abdallah Saoud that was the grandsire of Folla, Futna and Bint Barakat, imported to Egypt in 1322 Hijri (1904). See his hujjah here:

The Dahman of Abdallah Seoud al-Tahawi was probably a close relative to the horse that went to Russia, given the 10 year age difference between them.
The Dahman Amer horses of Jarallah Ibn Tuwayrish were also owned by the Barazi landowners of the city of Hama. From there, some time in the mid 1950s, they made their way to Ajil al-Yawar al-Jarba the Shaykh of the Shammar in Iraq, where they became famous as racehorses under the name “Duhayman al-Shuyukh”, the Dahman of the Shaykhs.
The Jarba Shaykhs occasionally gave some of the Dahman stallions from that strain to their retinue (descendants of slaves) to earn a living from stud fees, and at least one of these went back to Syria in the 1980s and has an ongoing line.
Wow! Thank you for the information, Edouard. The Tahawi connection via Jarallah Ibn Tuwayrish is really interesting to learn of.
