Perhaps it is more clearly stated that *Ansata Ken Rashik, who was bred by Sylvie Eberhardt and Donald and Judith Forbis, is the result of breeding Salaa El Dine (a son of Hanan and paternal grandson of Ansata Rosetta) to Ansata Prima Rose (a daughter of Ansata Rosetta and paternal granddaughter of Hanan). Dr. Nagel has also inbred to Ansata Rosetta resulting in the prized stallion Safir who is now owned by Sheik Abdul Aziz Bin Khaled Bin Hamad Al Thani of Al Rayyan Farm in Qatar. Safir was sired by Salaa El Dine (a son of Hanan and paternal grandson of Ansata Rosetta) out of Aisha (a daughter of Hanan and paternal granddaughter of Ansata Rosetta). Dr. Nagel was not alone in using Ansata Rosetta's precious blood multiple times within a single pedigree with great success. Ansata Arabian Stud, Al Rayyan Farm and many others have done exactly that with outstanding results.

In looking at Khalid's dam, *MB Jamillsa, she was the result of what might be considered a pedigree match with her paternal granddam, Imperial Mistilll, being slightly more than three-quarter sister to her dam, Bint Jamilla* (Bint Jamilla* is sired by *Jamilll and out of an *Ansata Ibn Halima++ daughter, whereas, Imperial Mistilll is sired by *Jamilll and out of a double *Ansata Ibn Halima++ granddaughter [sire and dam are by *Ansata Ibn Halima++]). Although this is not considered the "ideal" placement for where it is thought the greatest transmission of genetic strength is to be found (being a generation closer), she has, nonetheless, been able to pass her excellence in totality to most of her foals.

The other aspect of *MB Jamillsa's pedigree needing closer examination is that of her maternal great-great-granddam who is a daughter of *Rashad Ibn Nazeer and the ethereal beauty *Bint Moniet El Nefous. Though some will disagree, we believe this infusion of the athletic *Rashad with the exquisite refinement and beauty of *Bint Moniet was exactly what both horses needed relative to their intrinsic value as breeding stock for the future. In Authentic Arabian Bloodstock II, page 253, Judith Forbis stated " . . . *Bint Moniet El Nefous (by Nazeer), was the finest of the Pritzlaff imports, but unfortunately, she was bred most of the time to his bay stallion, *Rashad Ibn Nazeer, (*Rashad photo) who was completely out of type to her, and she produced mostly bays who were unlike her, being taller, heavier boned and plainer headed by comparison" one of such was AK Monisa Moniet (Monisa Moniet Photo) a *Rashad/*Bint Moniet daughter. And on page 252, Mrs. Forbis states ". . . the royal family of Egypt developed lines that were generally prized for their refinement and elegance. Chestnuts and greys predominate in Egypt; in America a bay line also developed through use of the more substantial and less typey bay Kuhaylan Rodan Stallion *Rashad Ibn Nazeer, on the elegant chestnut, *Bint Moniet El Nefous, regrettably almost wiping out the refinement and type the best greys and chestnuts of this line were noted for . . .". In 1999, Mrs. Forbis acquired MB Sateenha (a double great-great-granddaughter of *Bint Moniet El Nefous and *Rashad Ibn Nazeer) as a 4 year old at the Montebello dispersal auction and used her as a broodmare before exporting her and her daughters overseas. If this instance alone is not convincing enough that the cross of *Rashad Ibn Nazeer and *Bint Moniet El Nefous was an excellent breeding decision designed for use in the future (in spite of being the brainchild of the less popular breeder Richard Pritzlaff), then please click on **these examples** being representative of doubling the *Bint Moniet El Nefous family with two lines to *Rashad Ibn Nazeer on the sire's tail female via the granddam Rodoniet and one from the dam's side via AK Monisa Moniet. Together, sire and dam produced some of the most stunning, exotic and refined foals with nothing less than breathtaking, unequalled motion from the family of Moniet El Nefous. We strongly believe this was a direct consequence of *Bint Moniet El Nefous being bred to *Rashad Ibn Nazeer generations ago. In these aforementioned examples you should see the athletic genetics of *Rashad having been skillfully blended with the timeless beauty of Moniet El Nefous, through, in fact, her only daughter having left Egypt (I am still pondering the whys of the EAO in allowing this single, described as best daughter of Moniet El Nefous, to be sold to Richard Pritzlaff). This skillful blending allows breeders to this day to use the beauty and refinement of this blood without losing the athleticism and solid structure known to the true authentic arabian horse. Though *MB Jamillsa was a bay mare from this breeding on her tail female, she is an excellent example of what has NOT been lost because she epitomizes exotic type and refinement with the bonus of excellent overall structure and incredible, far reaching motion. Many thanks goes to the late, great Richard Pritzlaff for his foresight and consideration to the long-term future of the straight Egyptian arabian horse in selecting his broodstock and making breeding decisions however unpopular they may be with those more politically well-situated to influence and persuade others in their decision making.

Fortunately, Khalid Salaa Moniet is expressing the phenotype we expected when making the decision to use *Ansata Ken Rashik with *MB Jamillsa to a great degree. We believe he will do well as a sire and will give him the opportunity to prove himself in the breeding shed. Temperamentally, he is intelligent, playful, sensitive, respectful and willing to work - a pleasure to own. Structurally, he is built well-enough (and this is bolstered through his genetics) to improve weaknesses found in many mares such as offset cannons, club feet, low slung, plank type necks or peaky croups. He will undoubtedly be a sire for the future and you are invited to return to this page for continuing updates on his milestones.

**(Note: The first five in the following list are full-siblings from the tail female of *Rashad Ibn Nazeer and *Bint Moniet El Nefous from both their sire [x2] and dam.) Khalid Salaa Moniet is maternal half brother to Bint Bint Jamilla , Omar Saalim , Hanana II , Hanana , Shah Jamil*, Bint Jamillsa, and Amir El Rashid - click on name to go to their webpage.

Khalid Salaa Moniet's dam is *MB Jamillsa, once our best producing broodmare. Jamillsa is a culmination of the best attributes of her ancestors - her pedigree was expertly blended. Her disposition is much like that of her grandam and great-grandam, Hanan, as described in Dr. Nagel's book entitled "Hanan: The Story of an Arabian Mare and of the Arabian Breed". Her head can accurately be described as extreme and exotic with a large, dark, soft, eye. Her muzzle fits perfectly into the cup of a woman's hand and her features are that of quality and refinement. Her thin, supple skin is covered by a soft, fine, shiny coat that sheds out to a "clipped" finish. She was foaled in 1995, is straight Egyptian, Al Khamsa and bay in color standing 14.3+ hands. She is graceful and elegant with superb performance potential with a free moving front quarter, incredible reaching trot and the ability to drive deep up under herself for impulsion. Jamillsa has a long, slender neck with good flexion, good overall balance, straight legs and a good croup. An outstanding producer for JEVA Farms and our most honored brodmare for ten years. The sire side of Jamillsa's pedigree is chock full of champions and champion producers. Sired by Imperial Saturn, a 1994 United States National Top Ten Champion Stallion, a 1995 and 1996 Egyptian Event Reserve Champion in Country English Pleasure Jr. horses and Open respectively as well as finishing 3rd on the cards in Region 9 Ladies Western Sidesaddle Open(only his 2nd time shown in this class!) behind the National and Reserve Champions. He is also a multi-champion in western pleasure with several championship halter titles. Imperial Saturn was sired by *Ibn Safinaz, a National Top Ten Stallion and performance champion. *Ibn Safinaz sired the 1992 United States Reserve National Champion Futurity Stallion, Muzac, and a 1995 United States National Top Ten Stallion, MB Mistaz, as well as many other champions both in performance and halter classes. His get continue to accumulate championships to his credit. Imperial Saturn is out of Imperial Mistilll, who has produced champion after champion earning the title of Imperial Egyptian Stud's most famous broodmare. Imperial Mistilll was sired by *Jamilll, a Multi-Champion and U.S. National Top Ten Stallion, a competitive dressage mount in Germany as well as sire of European and World Champions. Bred by Dr. Hans Nagel, Germany, and leased to Ansata Arabian Stud from from 1983-1984. Perhaps the best son of the incomparable mare, Hanan, of Dr. Hans Nagel's Katherinenhof Stud. Hanan is the dam and grandam of some very well-known arabians and her influence spans the World. In her lifetime, she produced 11 foals, including the aforementioned *Jamilll. She is the dam of Asfour, of the famous Simeon Stud in Australia. Asfour is the sire of World Reserve Senior Champion Stallion, Simeon Sadik and Ibn Galal I, the sire of *Ibn Galal 1-7, a United States Top Ten National Champion Mare. Hanan is also the dam of Salaa El Dine the sire of the more recent import, *Shahir, who is also a multi-champion stallion. *Jamilll's sire is Madkour I the 1972 and 1982 National Champion Stallion of West Germany as well as a multi-National Champion producing sire. Imperial Mistilll's dam is Ansata Nile Mist who was sired by the first straight Egyptian United States National Champion Stallion, Ansata Ibn Sudan. Ansata Nile Mist was out of Falima who was sired by the very famous and multi-Champion National Top Ten Stallion, *Ansata Ibn Halima.

The dam's side of Jamillsa's pedigree is equally impressive. *MB Jamillsa is out of Bint Jamilla* who was sired by *Jamilll. Bint Jamilla* was exported to Australia by the Ponds in 1998. Bint Jamilla* is out of Monisa Halima who was sired by *Ansata Ibn Halima a three time United States National Top Ten Halter Champion Stallion, Class A Champion at Park and Halter, Most Classic and Legion of Merit Stallion. *Ansata Ibn Halima sired the United States National Champion Mare, Fa Halima, United States National Champion Stallion, Ansata Ibn Sudan, Reserve National Champion Stallion of Europe's Salon Du Cheval, Ansata Abbas Pasha and Reserve National Champion Mare of Europe, Fa Halima. He also has countless champion grand get throughout the World and his blood may be found in most modern day horse pedigrees. Monisa Halima is out of AK Monisa Moniet who sold for $560,000.00 at the Bentwood Spectacular sale in the 80's. AK Monisa Moniet was sired by *Ibn Moniet El Nefous *Ibn Moniet El Nefous, imported in 1965 to the United States by Jay Stream then sold to Jarrell McCracken of Bentwood Farms. *Ibn Moniet El Nefous was a U.S. National Champion Top Ten Stallion and a sire of 426 foals including Al Nahr Mona Lisa dam of Bay Halima who was sire of Bint Hafarrah who is dam of Amir El Fareed sold to HRH Bandar Al Faisul of Saudi Arabia and bred by JEVA Farms. *Ibn Moniet El Nefous also sired AN Monsanto (sire of 160 foals), Al Nahr Montino exported to the UK, AK Monazarra, AK Monazera, AK Monilita, DG Monietta, Monaserra, AN Mona all six exported to Brazil, Bint Monisa exported to Argentina, Na Ibn Moniet (sire of 122 foals), Mohafez exported to Germany then Hungary (sire of 135 foals), Dareeba exported to France then Germany, AK Nadira exported to Argentina, Della Moniet exported to Brazil then Argentina, Moniet El Sharaf (sire of 516 foals), and notably, Imperial Phanadah dam of Imperial Pharaj exported to Morocco then Italy, Imperial Phanilah exported to Qatar and owned by Al Shaqab, Imperial Imphayana exported to Israel, Germany then the UK, Imperial Impharida exported to Qatar to name a few. AK Monisa Moniet was out of Monisa RSI who was sired by the performance producer *Rashad Ibn Nazeer, imported by Richard Pritzlaf and sire of 35 foals including Tibor The General, Shiko Ibn Sheikh a multi-champion in performance, sire of 255 foals many of whom are Champions in Performance, Bint El Sarie, RSI Sara, Alcibiades (sire of 101 foals including RG Al Mone and several other notables), Soja RSI, Monieta RSI, Monietor-RSI, Rafisa RSI, Monisa RSI (dam of 12 foals including AK Monisa Moniet, Bint Monisa-exported to Argentina, and AK Radia), Rasmoniet RSI (exported to the UK then Australia and sire of 178 foals), BiMoniet RSI, Sonieta, and Dazeera to name a few. AK Monisa Moniet was out of *Bint Moniet El Nefous. *Bint Moniet El Nefous hails from one of the most prolific mare lines in the World, Moniet El Nefous.

Khalid Salaa Moniet is sired by *Ansata Ken Rashik foaled in 1993, bred by Donald and Judith Forbis of Ansata Arabian Stud and Sylvie Eberhard of Katr El Nada Stud and imported by Ansata in 1994. He was shown at two Class A shows at Halter in 1998 and was 2nd out of two both times shown. He was sold to Tracy Davis of Nile Bay Arabians in 2001 without having produced for Ansata. At Nile Bay Arabians, he was bred to just 6 straight Egyptian mares thus far in his lifetime and has produced 16 foals (4 females and 12 males) from 1999 to 2008 with just one being linebred to Hanan through the dam and that is *MB Jamillsa. Three of the four females are in production and Hajaa El Rashik has produced two females for Deshazer Arabians (a mare by Amaar Al Rayyan and a mare by Immell of Hope Farms) before being sold to Miars Arabians. Dr. William Hudson of Zandai Arabians purchased Rashik in 2008 (as a 17 year old) and states Ansata Rosetta is "The Arabian Breeder's Archetype", which is true. It is likely that he will use Rashik's bloodlines and, in particular, his female family wisely. *Ansata Ken Rashik was sired by the late Salaa El Dine, long time herd sire for Dr. Hans Nagel's Katherinenhof Stud and was sire to 190 foals, 55 of which were exported from Germany as foundation stock for other countries, including the above mentioned Safir. Salaa El Dine sired many greats including the late Crusader (owned by Lodge Farm in England). Crusader was Junior Champion at Towerlands, British National Champion and Reserve World Champion Colt in Paris. He was raced in 1993 and won by over a length.

He was also sire to *Maarauder MH of Rancho Bulakenyo, who has produced wonderfully well for the Cruz family, the incomparable beauty, Asraa Salaa once of Deshazer Arabians.
