Jezabel – Die Wüstenstute/The Desert Mare

From the article written by Betty Finke for “Araber Journal”:

 In early 1980, Jezabel shared the fate of many of her two-legged countrymen and had to leave the country in a hurry. Being owned by the Royal Horse Society, she was technically the property of Shah Reza Pahlevi, who’s reign was abruptly ended by the return of the Ayatolla Khomeini, who called out the Islamic Republic of Iran and opposed everything from the West. The Shah’s horses with their connection to the US-based WAHO were in acute danger of their lives. Jezabel and other horses from the Royal Stud owed their life to the efforts of Gustl Eutermoser and Ulrike Marcik from Austria, who with the help of Mary Gharazoglou brought them out of the country to their own stud farm in Austria.

On 1 March 1981 received her WAHO papers and was entered in Vol. 1 of the Asil Club.
