The Mares at Black Ridge Arabians

Our mares are the basis for our breeding program. Like the Bedouin, we value the tail-female lines of our mares. The lines of the famous mare Rodania, purchased in the desert by the Blunts and brought to England; the Abbas Pasha mare Sobha; and the Hamidie mare Nedjme are the root tail-female ancestors of our mares.

These lovely ladies have been so busy breeding that we have not photographed them extensively. Watch for photos here soon!

For now, you can see our *Silver Vanity daughter, PR Silver Dream; one of our *Silvern Magic daughters, Enchanted Opal; and Shadow Danseur on our Fillies' Page with their daughters.
