Ramses Kora
Ramses Kora, 1982 Chestnut Mare,
was the foundation mare for Mahrus Arabians. She was bred for two daughters and came to us after her last daughter was born.
Ramses Kora joined our herd to be bred to *Waheeb. We so wanted a *Waheeb son or daughter from her but it was not to be.
She carried a filly full term but the baby died during birth. She was retired and died early in 2008.
Chris agreed to let us have her two daughters for our program.
Ramses Kora is the Dam of two mares now in our herd and is grandmother to our wonderful colt Abu Waheeb.
Kora was a broodmare Extraordinare! She was born at Plum Grove Farm, bred by the Loeber family.
She is the results of a superb outcross breeding.
Unlike her siblings, Kora never got a chance to show in the show ring, for she was too valuable as a broodmare.
She managed to produce better than herself and yet pass on the best of her traits.
One standout daughter was Ramses Camelia, whom as a yearling, was the second highest
selling filly at the Pyramid Society's Breeders' Sale VII for the closing price of
$90,000 and then she turned around and won her new owners $40,000 by placing first at
the Calcutta Filly Fantasia class! In 1990 she was exported to Brazil.
A rare and beautiful *Lancers Sahm Daughter! !
*Lancers Sahm and Ramses El-Hilal
*Lancers Sahm was a lovely bay stallion. Imported from Egypt, Sahm was a successful
Grand Champion show horse and a popular sire of Champion get before he was exported.
He was well known for his gentle nature, exquisite chiseled head and large eyes.
He is the main source of his sire's blood, Sabeel, in this Country.
Martin Loeber saw something special in this stallion and bred three of his mares to him before he left the country.
Kora was the only resulting mare and the only one to produce Straight Egyptian offspring.
*Lancers Sahm is known to be a broodmare sire. His daughters have produced some very fine foals that grace programs all over the world.
He was a Halter Champion and sire of athletic performance horses. *Lancers Sahm is in some of the most sought-after pedigrees.
We were blessed with the horses in our program that have this beautiful stallion as a grand-Sire.
(This photo is of Ramses Fayek, as I have never found a photo of Ramses El-Hilal)Ramses El-Hilal, was the results of Martin Loeber's two favorite straight Egyptian imports.
*Ramses Fayek, Ramses El-Hilal's sire, made a name for himself in history not only as a sire of top quality
straight Egyptians, here and in Egypt, but also a sire of top Champion Polish crosses. Several of his offspring
went on to win National Championships! *Nayla, Ramses El-Hilal's dam, was a import from Germany (1973).
Straight Egyptian and Sheykh Obeyd, she was the most treasured mare owned by the Loeber family.
She was sired by the famous treasured stallion, Hadban Enzahi and tracing back to some of the best mares
in Egypt, Nefisa, Helwa, and Bint Farida on the bottom female line! Ramses El-Hilal was one of six of
this pairing but she had the added bonus of being a bay out of two greys. She had five offspring,
most of which were outcross breedings like Kora and went on to produce well.
