Eternity Ibn Navarrone-D
The grey stallion Eternity Ibn Navarrone-D, born in 1997, stood among the most influential halter show and breeding horses of his generation in Europe. Bred by Martine Despeghel-Van Hee of Dion Arabians in Belgium, Eternity represented a excellent blend of Egyptian and Spanish-influenced bloodlines.
At the core of Eternity’s genetic foundation was his sire, the Straight Egyptian stallion Ansata Sinan (1992–2011), bred by Ansata Arabians in the United States and later exported to Belgium. Ansata Sinan was sired by Prince Fa Moniet and out of Ansata Nefara, herself a daughter of the influential Ansata Sudarra. This cross also produced Ansata Iemhotep, 2003 Egyptian Event Supreme Champion Stallion, and the distinguished broodmare Ansata Nafisa, who was exported to Egypt.
Ansata Sinan’s influence rested not only on pedigree but also on phenotype. He was widely admired for his expressive, refined head, large eyes, and distinctive presence—traits he transmitted reliably. His show record included titles such as 1994 Egyptian Event Junior Champion Colt, 1995 European Champion Stallion, and 1995 World Reserve Champion Colt in Paris. His offspring achieved global recognition, including AS Sinans Pacha, the 1999 World Reserve Junior Champion Colt, and Shamir Ibn Ansata Sinan, the 2011 WAHO Trophy winner for the Czech Republic. Breeders often referred to the consistency of the “Sinan look,” an ethereal quality that became a hallmark of his descendants.
Eternity’s dam, Navarrone P (El Khadir P × Navarra P), was one of the most iconic mares owned by Dion Arabians. Foaled in 1987 and of predominantly Spanish breeding with Egyptian elements through her sire, Navarrone P became renowned for her exotic type, charisma, and movement. Her striking black eyes, exceptional body balance, and distinctive “spirit”—as described by her breeder—made her one of the most admired mares in Europe. Navarrone P enjoyed a long and decorated show career, earning titles such as Senior Female Reserve Champion at both the 1999 European and World Championships and Senior Female Champion at the 2003 All Nations Cup.
As a broodmare, Navarrone P’s impact was extraordinary. She produced two stallions who each became World Champions: Escape Ibn Navarrone-D (2005 World Champion Stallion, among numerous other titles) and Eternity himself. Her daughter Farhanah Bint Navarrone-D, by Ansata Selman, also contributed to the family legacy by becoming Belgian National Champion Mare in 2012. Navarrone P’s production record secured her position among the most influential European broodmares of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Against this background, Eternity Ibn Navarrone-D emerged as a natural heir to a dynasty of champions. His show career began early and progressed rapidly. In 1998 he was named Junior Male Reserve Champion at the European Championships, followed by Junior Male Champion at both the European and World Championships in 1999. As a senior stallion, he continued to dominate, winning Senior Male Champion at the All Nations Cup, Belgian Nationals, Tulip Cup, and World Championships in 2004, and again earning the All Nations Cup Senior Male Championship in 2007. These accomplishments placed him firmly among the leading show stallions of his era.
Eternity’s influence extended through his offspring, many of whom achieved major championship titles. His most accomplished son, Nijem Ibn Eternity VI (out of Naravna, 2001), became a Triple Crown winner in 2004, securing the All Nations Cup, European, and World Championships as a colt, and later earning the title of European Champion Stallion in 2008.
Other notable descendants included Hypnotic Ibn Eternity-D, Belgian National Silver Champion in 2014 and National Champion Stallion in 2016, and the mare Majidah Bint Eternity-D, National Champion Mare of Morocco.
Through his achievements and the success of his progeny, Eternity Ibn Navarrone-D secured his legacy as one of the standout stallions of contemporary Arabian horses in Europe.
Pyramid Nour El Nil K
The Straight Egyptian mare Pyramid Nour El Nil K was bred and owned by Uwe Jürgen Wagner of Pyramid Arabian Stud in Germany. Born in 2005, she is characterized by the subtle white ticking in her tail typical of rabicanos.
Her sire, Al Lahab (Laheeb x The Vision HG), has been one of the most influential Straight Egyptian stallions in Germany. Al Lahab earned international acclaim as Senior World Champion Stallion in Paris (2006), World Silver Champion Stallion (2009) and Senior Champion Stallion at the All Nations Cup in 2006. His sire Laheeb was by Imperial Imdal out of AK Latifa. Al Lahab’s dam was the black mare The Vision HG (Thee Desperado x Belle Staar) who became foundation mare at Ariela Arabians in Israel with an impressive breeding record.
The dam of Pyramid Nour El Nil K, Bint Kahila (Al Kidir x Kahila), was one of the key foundation mares at Pyramid Arabian Stud. A bay mare of elegant type, she produced seven foals, including three full siblings to Pyramid Nour El Nil K: Pyramid Lahara K, exported to Bebo Stud in Egypt in 2005; Pyramid Layyan K, recipient of a Silver Ribbon from the German Arabian Horse Association in 2006; and Pyramid Kahileh K. Through Bint Kahila, Pyramid Nour El Nil K traces to Kaythara, a mare bred in Egypt and imported to Germany by Siegfried and Brigitte Kübe in 1976. Kaythara became a cornerstone of the Al Sachra, Brigittenhof breeding program, representing the Saklawiyah strain descending from the desert-bred mare Mabrouka of the Inshass Stud in Egypt.
Pyramid Nour El Nil K contributed to the Pyramid breeding program with one registered foal, the bay filly Pyramid Sarafina (by Shagran Al Nasser, 2010).
She was shown successfully in halter classes and consistently placed.
Bengaldesh
The bay gelding Bengaldesh, born in 1998 and bred by Jutta Hell of Gestüt Erlau in Germany, represented a carefully considered blend of beauty, athletic ability, and distinguished bloodlines. Breeder Jutta Hell, known for presenting Arabian stallions such as Sascha and Achmed in public dressage demonstrations, established a reputation for combining classical Arabian type with genuine athletic performance. Her breeding program at Gestüt Erlau reflects this philosophy, producing horses succeeding in sport disciplines such as endurance and dressage.
Bengaldesh was sired by FS Bengali, a bay stallion whose name became synonymous with international success in both Europe and the United States. Bred in Germany, FS Bengali (Kubinec x Om El Sanadiva) became a global ambassador for the German breeding program. In Europe, he earned such titles as All Nations Cup Reserve Champion Colt, Platin Cup Champion, 1997 World Reserve Champion Colt, and German National Champion Stallion. His achievements was topped when he became 2003 U.S. National Champion Stallion, the first German-bred stallion ever to earn this title. His sire, the Russian bred stallion Kubinec was a legend and an excellent sire with an impressive halter show record.
The dam of Bengaldesh, Nena (born 1986), adds more Russian blood to his pedigree. She was sired by Neman, one of the last sons of the great Nabeg, thereby carrying forward the heritage of the renowned Russian performance line known for stamina and substance. Neman’s progeny were notable for their athletic aptitude, particularly in dressage and endurance, fields in which his offspring demonstrated both trainability and soundness. Bengaldesh himself reflected these qualities, accumulating 5,724 competition kilometers by 2010.
Nena’s dam, Nevada, was a chestnut mare born at Tersk Stud in 1970, representing one of the most historically significant combinations of Egyptian and Russian bloodlines. Her sire, the Egyptian-bred Aswan (originally Raafat), was gifted to the Soviet Union in 1963 in gratitude for assistance in constructing the Aswan Dam.
Nevada’s influence extended through her daughter Neschi, and subsequently through the mares Nenija, Nascha, and Menascha, forming a maternal dynasty recognized as one of Germany’s most successful. Notably, four generations—Nevada, Neschi, Nascha, and Menascha—were each awarded the German Elite Mare title, underscoring the line’s sustained excellence in both conformation and production. Menascha, in turn, became dam of Essteema, the first female European Triple Crown winner, cementing the family’s international reputation for exceptional breeding quality.
While Bengaldesh’s career was centered on endurance and athletic pursuits rather than the show ring, his record speaks to the enduring value of balanced Arabian breeding. His lifetime mileage achievement of over 5,700 kilometers reflects not only physical soundness and stamina but also the willing temperament and resilience for which Arabians are celebrated.
EH Zyrano De Beygerac
The bay stallion EH Zyrano De Beygerac represents a harmonious combination of Polish and Russian bloodlines with a valued trace of Crabbet blood. He is bred and owned by Caroline Bär at her Enserhof Stud in Germany.
Standing approx. 15.2 hands, EH Zyrano De Beygerac combines elegance and substance, expressing the classic Arabian silhouette in a sport-oriented frame. His well-balanced conformation, ground-covering movement, and excellent jumping aptitude made him a standout during his licensing and performance testing years.
In 2009, Zyrano De Beygerac was presented at the regional stallion registry event in Bavaria. Later that year, he was successfully licensed by the German Arabian Horse Association. Two years later, in 2011, he confirmed his promise by winning the Stallion Performance Test at Stadl Paura, achieving an overall score of 8.41 and earning the title Champion Stallion. His scores reflected his notable performance in gaits, jumping ability, and temperament, with marks of 8 for jumping style, underscoring his performance talent.
His sire Bey Shy (by Kouvay Bey, a son of the famous Bey Shah, out of Miss Ambernado by Marsianin) was a German Elite stallion of primarily Russian and Polish breeding. Born in 1996, Bey Shy himself earned early acclaim as Junior Champion Colt at the Arabica Show in Grub, Austria in 1997. He went on to sire several offspring, most notably Meenah Bey (ex Farids Mandolin), Junior Reserve Champion Filly at the Championnat d’Alsace in 2002.
His dam, Zalotnica, was bred at the Kurozw?ki Stud in Poland and represented classic Polish breeding. She was a daughter by Partner, a stallion known for passing on correct conformation and athleticism. Her dam was a granddaughter by the renowned Celebes. Zalotnica herself holds the title of German Elite Mare and was a cornerstone of the Enserhof breeding program. Over her long broodmare career, she produced 16 foals, among them Zebulon, a sire at Enserhof and stablemate to EH Zyrano De Beygerac.
Although Zyrano De Beygerac was not campaigned in halter shows, his influence as a sire is noteworthy. He has sired 13 foals, two of them premium foals, most bred at Enserhof.
The Enserhof program, under Caroline Bär’s direction, has long emphasized Arabian horses that combine classical type with functional athletic qualities suitable for sport. Within this vision, EH Zyrano De Beygerac exemplifies the ideal blend of Arabian charm and sportiness, as described by his breeder. His expressive character, reliable disposition, and willingness to perform made him a valued riding and breeding stallion rather than a show-ring competitor.
Casanova
Casanova is a grey gelding, foaled in July 2001 in Germany. He was bred by Horst Blutbacher and is one of only three registered foals out of the mare VA Ghala Bint Galinka. Casanova represents a blend of American and Spanish bloodlines.
Before being gelded, Casanova was shown successfully as a young stallion. At the 2004 German National Championships, he competed in the class for three-year-old colts, where he placed first in his class.
Casanova’s sire, Sandstorm JC, is a grey stallion bred in the United States by Emeka and Donna Nchekwube. Foaled in 1989, Sandstorm JC is by Fame VF and out of Sids Marjuri. He earned early recognition as Canadian National Top Ten Futurity Colt in 1992.
Sandstorm JC’s sire, Fame VF+, was a bay stallion regarded as the top-siring son of Bey Shah+, who in turn was the Arabian breed’s leading living sire of halter champions during the 1980s. Fame VF+ earned the Legion of Honor (+) and achieved a successful show career under trainer Dick Adams, who promoted the stallion on the U.S. Arabian show circuit. Fame VF+ became a prolific sire of halter winners, transmitting the refinement, expressive heads, and presence for which this sire-line became renowned worldwide.
In 1998, Sandstorm JC was exported to Germany. Through Sandstorm JC, Casanova is paternal half-brother to BS Specific, French National Champion Stallion, European Champion Stallion and World Bronze Champion Stallion titles in 2007.
Casanova’s dam, VA Ghala Bint Galinka, is a grey mare of Straight Spanish breeding. Her sire, Calero, was bred in Spain and earned major titles as 1984 World Reserve Champion Colt and 1984 European Champion Colt. Calero became a valued sire in the Netherlands after his importation in 1983 and later went to the UK in 1990.
VA Ghala Bint Galinka’s dam, Mel Galinka, produced several notable offspring, including the multi-champion mare Galinka Rougelais. VA Ghala Bint Galinka traced to Arilla by Malvito, an excellent Spanish broodmare of the Sambry dam.line. Arilla produced Finta, Pintor, Uranio and Rastano (sire of the full-brothers Estopasan and Rastano Ibn Estopa)
Casanova was gelded and later used as riding horse without leaving any registered offspring.
Spruce Tamin
The grey Straight Egyptian mare Spruce Tamin was foaled in July 1987 in the United States, bred by Talaria Farms of John and Julia Stroube.
Spruce Tamin was sired by Prince Ibn Shaikh, a son of Shaikh Al Badi and RDM Maar Hala. Shaikh Al Badi was admired for siring refined and well-balanced offspring that embodied the classic desert type. Through him, Spruce Tamin traced to Morafic, one of the most influential Straight Egyptian sires in the development of the modern Arabian breeding program in the United States.
Spruce Tamin's dam, Chafa Al Bukra, by Ansata El Sherif and out of Wazifa, belonged to the Venus db dam-line. This line is known for producing mares of enduring broodmare strength and consistent type, for example the mare Zebeda by El Sareei who produced twelve registered foals including Shaker El Masri, foundation stallion at Om El Arab and lifelong companion of the legendary Estopa. Zebeda was also the dam of Waheeba, the great-granddam of Spruce Tamin..
The maternal grandsire Ansata El Sherif was a son by Ansata Ibn Halima and Ansata Bint Bukra, both foundation horses of Ansata Arabian Stud in the United States.
In the mid 1990's, Spruce Tamin was acquired by La Movida Arabians in Austria, the breeding program of Ferdinand Huemer, where she became part of his exclusive collection of mares. At La Movida Arabians she produced three fillies. Her first born daughter was her most notable one: LM Sadunga. LM Sadunga was a bay mare by the Spanish bred stallion El Perfecto. Some say, she was the most beautiful mare of her time. She became European Champion Filly in 1995.
Spruce Tamin and LM Sadunga were then acquired by Dieter Gerbaulet from Germany. For Gerbaulet, Spruce Tamin produced two more foals: Tamina by Scottsdale Champion Stallion FS Bengali and a colt named Shaikh Al Nizr by Anaza El Nizr. But it was her daughter LM Sadunga that continued the line of Spruce Tamin. At Gerbaulet's stud LM Sadunga established herself as an outstanding broodmare. Her first foal, Shaklan Ibn Bengali, was sired by FS Bengali and was German National Reserve Champion Colt in 1998, Swiss National Reserve Champion Stallion in 2006 and premium stallion in Germany.
Another son, the grey Ashur by Assad was premium stallion in Germany and sired Al Ashar, a German Elite Stallion, that has excelled in show jumping and dressage.
LM Sadunga’s grey daughter Sabrina (aka Sabrina VII) by Crusader was successfully halter shown. Another daughter of LM Sadunga continued Spruce Tamin's legacy in Spain: DG Bint Sadunga by Javier El Jamaal. In Spain, she became National Bronze Champion and Silver Champion Mare in 2012 and 2014 respectively, demonstrating that the family’s quality carried consistently through the generations.
