	2008 foals: The incredible CDRS Farah Moniet (Imperial ImSirdar X AK Farette), delivered a gorgeous chocolate-chestnut Laheeb colt on March 11, beautiful dished face, tiny tipped ears, great body, tail carriage, and superb movement. Laheeb, an Israeli National Champion known in Europe as a producer of champions, was 2006 Egyptian Event Reserve Supreme Champion Stallion, to his own son, World champion stallion Al Lahab. Our first Laheeb filly, Cedars Bellavia (X Cedars KenyaCatchMe), is available for purchase. RSA Sahra Nazeem produced a gorgeous chestnut Sirdar colt February 27., 2007. He is very typey, leggy, perfectly conformed, and moves boldly with great style and charisma Sahra's 2007 bay Sirdar colt, Rashiiq Ibn Sirdar , will begin training with Fernando Poli and is available for purchase. We will rebreed Sahra to Sirdar in May, hoping for a filly.
	Imperial ImSirdar (Ansata Imperial X Imperial Sonbesjul X *Serenity Sonbolah), our foundation stallion, is standing at stud in 2008 at Whitehaven Plantation in Bishopville, SC. This sport horse facility is the ideal place for Sirdar, who was a triple dressage champion in 2002. In 2006, Sirdar was cleared for shipping cooled semen overseas. Sirdar is a sire in the Sport Horse Nationals payback program, which allows any Sirdar foal to be eligible for prize money. Go to www.shnpayback.com to bid on his half-price breeding. At Whitehaven, contact Trisha Blackwell for information.
	Our beautiful mare, Shalom Sabbath (Ibn Amoura X Shalom Jamilia), who produced beautiful, long-legged foals by Imperial ImSirdar, Al Baraki, and Botswana died in November 2007. Sabbath's foals have been extraordinary: big, beautiful, and bold moving. We will retain Cedars Kasane (Botswana) as Sabbath's replacement. This filly has met our expectations: exotically beautiful face and expression, tipped ears, smooth body, and big movement. The bonus is her size--long legs, long neck, well-proportioned body to match. Kasane was shown to a Top Ten at the 2007 Egyptian Event and to a Class A Reserve Championshipby Ted Carson.
