Bay pure Crabbet colt born 16 April 2010 by Silver
Zaanif out of Palma Benay
whom Anne imported to Gadebrook from Australia in 2007.
Kaalif is the first bay pure Crabbet colt born in Britain
since Hachim was foaled here 16 years ago - he is now in Abu
Dhabi. Kaalif brings fresh genes to widen the Crabbet bloodlines
in Britain.

Kaalif's optimistic,
energetic personality should make him a fine endurance horse
and sire.
His Crabbet bloodlines descending
from horses imported to Australia over 60 years ago make
him a valuable potential future sire.

Kaalif gets a squeaky toy for Christmas, mini-Shetland
Flynn. So - who's playing with whom?
I'am not going to pull your
rug, honest!.... He's pulling my rug, isn't he.... Caught
you!
