Kuhaylat Ibn Mizher mare from Syria
Yet another one of my smartphone favorites is this photo of a Syrian Kuhaylat Ibn Mizher mare of the horses of Shaykh Hashim al-Jarba. Her name is al-Tayou’, and she is 13 years old. The strain is an offshoot of Kuhaylan Krush.
She is a granddaughter of the black Saqlawi Marzaqani stallion Barazan I like so much.
So interesting to know the strain connection. I have seen very similar shaped heads on Kuhaylan Krush strain Davenport (Syrian) Arabians.
Oh, what a lovely mare, with such bright eyes – and such a lovely shade of bay.
That is a fine mare, and one I would be proud to have grace my (now imaginary) pastures! And I can see the likeness to Davenport Krush lines as well.
She’s really pretty. There’s a gentle air to her, almost fey.
