Salam, 1967 stallion of Moroccan lines
Arnault Decroix published this photo of the 1967 Arabian stallion Salam (Agres x Tosca by Fellous) on his social media accounts. Salam, who I saw during the 1994 WAHO conference in Rabat at the age of 27, was the head stallion for the Moroccan government. He struck me then as a very correct stallion with excellent proportions. His pedigree blends old, authentic French bloodlines (75%) and Tunisian/Algerian lines (25%). I don’t know who took the picture. He is very reminiscent of some Davenport horses in the USA.
Looks like a phenotype fixxer to me!

I agree about the similarity to some Davenports. Of course, I tend to think in those terms most of the time!
