A year ago Aldebaran Arabians embarked on a journey to Katharinenhof Stud, Germany in the pursuit of knowledge and avid beauty. Witnessing the distinctive type founded in Dr. Nagel's Hanan bloodlines over 35 years of well-orchestrated breeding resonated with our desired foundation objectives of carrying forth a refined style of desert beauty. In the stalls and paddocks of Katharinenhof, uniformity of type and elegant form presented itself; The exotic looks acheived through the infusion of Hanan with Ansata Halim Shah, particularly the stunningly influential lines springing from the great Salaa El Dine and Safir. We began at the source, which lead us to the very purpose of our journey: Cultivating such bloodlines at our program back home in the U.S.

As part of our journey, an hour's drive from Katherinenhof, we wound our way to the dreamy countryside where Nebras Al Rayyan was located and witnessed his very first German foal crop at Al Qusar Stud. His ancestry is famous: Sired by Ansata Hejazi and out of the full sister to Qatar's magnificent stallion Ashhal Al Rayyan (Safir x Ansata Majesta). Coming to an entire twelve-months since we set out in pursuit, we are pleased to announce that the first incorporation of this unique heritage is almost upon us - Aldebaran's elite Polish Aristocrat Mare *Pustynna Tarçza is due this Spring, in foal to the imported Straight Egyptian stallion *Nebras Al Rayyan, himself bound to U.S. soil this April. ( Collapse story. )

Following the very successful outcross of *EMIGRANT to Aldebaran Arabian’s multi-champion mare Copper Monet - a match that produced the beautiful filly, Emelea Aldebaran, the program has opted again to breed another special mare to the Polish Import Stallion:

Our young maiden star, Mena Aldebaran (2007, Sired by Laheeb, Out of the famed Russian *Menes / Muscat dam lines) carries foal to *Emigrant, due this Spring.
