excellent depth of body and structure and a very feminine quality. The stud also owns her daughter Salam Ishtaar (by Durra Shahh) and her eye-catching young colt, El Zahabi Attar (by El Arab Nizik). This young stud prospect shows breed type and refinement with quality and his breeding career is much anticipated. To increase The Minstril influence within the program some future broodmares with lines to *The Fugitive close up in their breeding have been incorporated. Terri feels these youngsters will complement the stud sires she is incorporating and her plans to line breed on The Minstril. In Victoria, Eileen Boorer’s Voutique Stud has utilised Belbowrie lines with The Minstril line bred stallion Belbowrie Talisman (The Black Magic x *Tatima) to produce stock which overall have been an improvement on the bench mark for type, conformation and temperament for the stud. The lovely grey mare Belbowrie White Rose (*Imperial Maakir x *Attar of Roses) was bred to Belbowrie Talisman and their stylish black filly, Voutique Remi, has been retained within the stud. In 2010 White Rose produced the quality colt Voutique Razaar by the Simeon Shai son, Jaytee Eclypse, and he will be retained as a future stud sire for the breeding program. Eileen finds in breeding these The Minstril lines that they have passed on to their progeny excellent temperaments with good legs and movement. Additionally they have been able to breed more Arabian breed type in to their foals when bred to other lines and maintain good body structure. The filly Voutique Pride (ex Power’N Passion by Dassefa) is a wonderful example of how The Minstril line has crossed over their Egyptian related mares. This filly has been shown as a yearling to achieve Reserve Champion at the Goulburn Valley Show. The Magic Maker stud in Western Australia have utilised the Belbowrie bred sire The Black Magic (Black Halim x *Attar of Roses) with good results, and the stud has a number of promising youngsters from this sire. Their premier youngster is his lovely daughter, Magic Maker Farida (ex Sweet Meadows Kharissa − a grand daughter of *The Fugitive). The stud has sought to incorporate The Minstril blood in their program for the most part to improve head quality, having always been in awe of The Minstril’s dry and typey look. To date they have been able to consistently achieve their goal with Magic Maker Farida being an excellent example of their success, remaining undefeated in Classic Head classes. Although The Black Magic is now based with Julianne Mackey, Magic Maker stud has retained a promising homebred son to continue his sire line within their program. Magic Maker Mounir’s first foals are arriving and proving their confidence in him is well founded. At the Ladnik Stud in Victoria, the imported The Minstril son *Khamzeen is an attractive grey with a lovely front and a growing reputation for producing quality youngsters showing good saddle horse conformation and ability. He is producing progeny with good legs and shoulders and calm, workable temperaments from a variety of mare lines, including a lovely line of Arabian ponies showing versatility under saddle at a local pony club. The stud has recently acquired some straight Egyptian mares to ensure his strengths are carried forward in that genetic base as well, and already his first such daughter, Khamaya (ex Al-Anaya) is proving his ability there. Fairview Arabian Stud has in recent years incorporated The Minstril blood via their imported sire *Al Kha-zar (Thee Asil x Infidels Princess). Initially acquired for his outcross bloodlines for the stud and for his phenotypical resemblance to the El Shaklan family, he possessed the features that were needed, including a long, fine neck, lovely face, short back and level croup with a good length top: Salam Arabians’ young colt, El Zahabi Attar (El Arab Nizik x Essence of the Rose). middle: The Minstril’s grandson, The Renegade has been successful inhand and under saddle in the USA. bottom: The stallion The Black Magic (*Black Halim x *Attar of Roses).
