The three foals by Hadiya we entered for the 2020 national
Futurity Evaluations all did extremely well, all gaining
Gold, with Bright Moonlight (pictured) earning the second
highest score for Endurance foals, Hazar the third and Kamelliya
the fourth – with the highest vet score! Caroline Hawes
has kindly produced mini-videos of their performances.
Pure Crabbet filly Bright Moonlight (born 2020) is sold
to international vet Erik Siccardi for a career in international
endurance. She loaded like a dream at Gadebrook, travelled
well and has settled in happily with the Siccardi family.
 
Pure Crabbet Hazar (born 2020), (right) will be backed
by top trainer Richard Walker in July 2023 for an endurance
career. He will then be for sale to a Performance rider.

Congratulation to Kaalif, winner
of Dinsdale Memorial Trophy for Champion Pure Arab in the
prestigious AHS Performance Horse Awards for 2019, owned
and ridden by Anja Ward, and also to her 13-yr old daughter
Victoria (right) on winning the Arab Horse Society’s
Farenza Cup on Kaalif for leading Junior Rider.
Kaalif won the pure Crabbet Endurance Championship at the
Crabbet Organisation Performance Awards 2019 and also the
FEI Endurance section.
However, tragedy struck in autumn 2020 when Kaalif broke
his leg in his field and had to be put down – such
a loss of an exceptional horse.
Kaalif was pure Crabbet by endurance sire Silver Zaanif
out of my imported Australian mare Palma Benay. Kaalif was
the sire of Shaarif (2015) from my imported Australian mare
Inshallah Signature. He is also owned by Anja Ward and starts
his Endurance career in earnest this year.

Sambist appears on the cover of the AHS Centenary Premium
Performance Scheme commemorative book of stallions, and
his genome sequence features in the Centenary exhibition

Advanced endurance mare Azarina (2007) produced a delightful
bay/grey pure Crabbet colt Hazar by Hadiya in May 2020.
This is a very special foal as he represents the 4th generation
of Gadebrook breeding, Anne having bred Azarina (by Shaded
Silver) and her dam Zaharina (by Ludomino) and owned her
dam Zarah (by Orion).
