SIRE: R-A Kuasar, Sire Line: Kuhailan Haifi
Among his numerous halter and performance wins, Traditio (Gdansk+ x Halali Tamarisk) was a Regional Champion Park Horse and a Scottsdale Top Ten Halter Horse. His best attributes were his size (15.1hh), high athletic ability, type (smooth bodied and long neck), and substance. He is credited with 143 registered foals.
Gdansk+ is one of the
most acclaimed *Bask++ sons, and out of the 6x champion producing mare, *Gdynia++

This Polish sire line began with the importation of Kuhailan Haifi from Arabia to Poland in 1930 by Prince Roman Sanguszko. He was described by his buyer as, "Not large, dry, on splendid legs without a trace of cow hocks. A long neck, a noble head, ...splended high carried tail." Although he only sired 14 foals prior to his untimely death two years post-importation, his progeny included Ofir, hailed the "Regenerator of the breed!" Included in Ofir's very first foal crop was what was to become known as the "3 Ws": the great stallions Wielki Szlem, Witraz, and Witez II. His son, Witraz, would become the chief progenitor of the Kuhailan Haifi sire line in Europe, and it is through his two exported sons (*Bask++ and Nureddin) that the popularity of this sire line became so explosive.
DAM: NR-Confetti, Dam Line: Rodania of the Blunt/Crabbet Stud in England
These mares trace down to Rodania, a desert bred Kehilet Ajuz mare of the strain of Ibn Rodan of Roala tribe and imported to England by the Blunts in 1881. She was the founder of a great producing line at Crabbet Stud, and living on most strongly today through her daughters Rose of Jericho, Rose of Sharon, and Rosemary. By Crabbet Stud, WK Kellogg, Van Vleet Arabian Stud, and Shirley Wilson, this dam line was line bred back many times to Rodania and to the stallion Aziz (many times through his son Mesaoud). At Crabbet Stud, this resulted in the mares Rose of Jericho (Kars x Rodania, 1883), Rose Diamond (Azrek x Rose of Jericho, 1890), Rose of Hind (Rejeb x Rose Diamond, 1902), and *Rasima (Daoud x Rose of Hind, 1917). *Rasima and her daughter *Rasafa were imported to the US in 1926, and established this dam line here in the US by serving as broodmares for the Kellogg Ranch. W.K. Kellogg then produced the mare Ferafa (*Ferdin x *Rasafa, 1932) and her daughter Nasafa (Rifnas x *Ferafa, 1938). At Van Vleet Arabian Stud, they followed Crabbet breeding tradition with the use of the descendants of outcross stallion Skowronek and then created their own outcross to the stallion *Zarife (Egyptian bred, sire of race winners). This resulted in the mares Dominica (Hattal *Skowronek grandson* x Nasafa, 1942) and then Mazana (*Zarife x Dominica, 1947). Mazana then went to Shirley Wilson's Arabian breeding program where he bred the mares Bint Mazana (Sur-Knight x Mazana, 1963), Sherem (Baske-Tu x Bint Mazana, 1973), and Salena (Gai Chopin x Sherem, 1977), which continued the addition of more lines to Aziz, Rodania, and Skowronek. Salena then went on to produce Lena (Lika Carnation's granddam) by Serinask (with more of these lines!). The mares in this dam line:
The stallions on the dam side:
"A horse gallops with his lungs, Perseveres with his heart, And wins with his character." ~ Tesio
