EQUUS

L. Abu Farwa (born 1940; Rabiyas x Rissletta).

-

This horse in many ways improves upon his grandsire Gulastra, through shortening the back, strengthen­ing the coupling, improving the overall body balance, and increasing the size of the hindquarte­r. A champion in both halter and park competitio­n, Abu Farwa was most impressive under saddle. His is still the most prolific American bloodline in terms of the number of champion sons who are themselves sires of champions— and of many others owned by ordinary folks who are “merely” good-looking, good-minded, useful and athletic.
