Description:
We regularly choose to bring into our breeding program some of the most desirable and sought after bloodlines in the world. This year we have chosen the Brazilian import, *Fausto, as that addition. In the past, breeders in Brazil have imported some of our finest horses and have excelled in their breeding of them. Every time shown, *Fausto has been unanimous champion. That speaks volumes for his quality as an individual. His pedigree speaks volumes about his genetic potential as a sire.
As royally bred as a stallion can be, *Fausto crh not only exhibits the beauty, balance and brilliance of his sire, but also the unmistakable quality of the important Aladdinn ~BASK++ blood carried by his dam, fhf Xantal. A daughter of U. S. National Champion, Almaden II, fhf Xantal carries four lines to *BASK++, the all time leading progenitor of National winning Arabian show horses. The first such line comes through Almaden II, a son of U. S. National Champion Stallion *Aladdinn, the all-time leading sire of National Champion Arabian Stallions.
As to motion ~ Almaden II is a 3/4 brother to 6 time National Champion Park Horse, Allience (both stallions being by *Aladdinn out of daughters of *BASK++). Almaden’s dam, La Ambir, was not only a daughter of *BASK++, but also a 3/4 sister to Ambra, one of the breed’s greatest-ever, National Champion Park Horses. AND, *Fausto’s third dam, A Special Feature, was by the *BASK++ son, Gdansk, another superb Park Horse and full brother to National Champion Park Horse, Cognac. Many of today’s most successful Saddle Seat English Division Champions carry, up close, the blood of both Gdansk and Cognac.
Fausto’s additional two lines to *BASK++ come through Wind Feature, a daughter of Fire Wind out of a daughter of Fire Wind. Himself out of a daughter of the American foundation sire, Rapture, Fire Wind was considered by many to have been one of *BASK’s two or three most beautiful sons. Early in his career as a breeding stallion, *BASK++ was bred to the daughters of Rapture and other heavily *Raffles/Skowronek-bred mares with extraordinary success. The offspring of these matings gave the breed some of the loveliest horses of their day, horses that still play important roles in the pedigrees of modern champions. A line to Dan Gainey’s beloved Ferzon son, Gazon, and lines to Spanish beauties, rounds out fhf Xantal’s powerful contribution of extreme Arabian type.
As to Arabian type ~ Needless to say, Magnum Psyche is an immeasurably important progenitor of exotic Arabian show horses and will go down in history as one of the most influential Arabian sires of the breed. And when crossed on females that carry Arabian type, the results are nothing short of remarkable. fhf Xantal is such a mare. From a line of the breed’s best athletes, this mare also represents exceptional beauty and refinement.
If you study the pedigrees of our horses, you will find that we have consistently brought in the Spanish lines through our mares and crossed them on the great stallions of our times. *Fausto continues our ‘Majik Tradition’ by bringing in Spanish through both the sire AND the dam. Magnum Psyche’s dam is Pure Spanish. *Fausto’s dam line goes to the great Spanish broodmare sire, *Barich de Washoe who is the sire of our Majik Barissa (See For Sale), the dam’s sire of our Bey Sharina who is the dam of our senior stallion, Bey Tshah Majik. And our young stallion, Magnum Majik, like *Fausto, is by Magnum Psyche and out of a beautiful performance bred mare by Ballad V (Huckleberry Bey x *Sanadik El Shaklan dtr) and out of a gorgeous daughter of the exquisite Sahara Prince.
