Alwal Bahet















Still too cold to do much riding, so am gathering old photos of Desert Bred Arabians and their ancestors to scan and preserve. Thought this blog would be a good place to share them.


Here is Alwal Bahet (110016 AHR). His bloodlines are from two sources in Saudi Arabia - The Royal Stables of His Majesty Sa'ud Ibn Abd'Al Aziz-Al Sa'ud and His Highness Amir Sa'ud Ibn Abdullah Ibn Jiluwi.






Alwal Bahet passed on tremendous atleticism, stamina and heart (besides his incredible good looks :))to his descendants which are many. At Desert Bred Arabians, we are proud to have numerous progeny from this stud. These Alwal Bahet 'kids' can be found in all disciplines.

In endurance, we've enjoyed seeing DB Marah, DB Dahmah, DB Bolero, DB Khrush and others go on to win a variety of races.





One of our friends, Kay, owns this Alwal Bahet look-alike, DB El Danjah (Runner) and hasn't found anything they can't do yet! Here is Runner in one of his many H/J shows - Kay has also taken him on endurance rides and has recently been tearing up the Polo Crosse fields with him. Go Kay!






















Desert Bred Arabians recognizes the value of Alwal Bahet's bloodlines and has preserved his lines thru several stallions. such as Desert Jalam (chestnut at top), DB Khrush who has achieved a lot of recognition in regional sport horse shows. Two young stallions, DB Ibn Jalam (chestnut in halter) and DB Bey Barz (black in halter) carry on those tremendous genes as well.



And speaking of the show ring, here is another Alwal Bahet descendant who is earning her fair shair of ribbons in the H/J arena - DB Caprih! She completed her first show this past fall and is a tremendous pony jumper. She's also been foxhunting recently and is exceling at chasing hounds and jumping hedges as well!


Do you have an Alwal Bahet descendant? Share your pics with us! We'd love to show them off!

  1. Thanks for posting this. I remember seeing 'Mighty White' as an elderly horse at the Booth's many years ago and I simply fell in love with his majesty. The stallion in my icon is grandson. :)
