Azraff
(*Raffles x Azka IV)
Azraff was a grey stallion that produced 21 Champions, including wins at the national
level. This made him the second best producing *Raffles son.
*Raffles
*Raffles was imported from England to the U.S. in 1932. He had heavy competition
from the other Skowronek son *Raseyn, as well as the Naseem grandsons *Serafix,
*Silver Drift, and *Naborr. His line was the clear winner with over 500 Champions.
Here is a side view of *Raffles. His outstanding sons included Azraff, Geym, Indraff,
Rapture, and Rifraff.
Skowronek
Skowronek was foaled in Poland in 1909 and exported to England in 1913. His sons,
*Raffles and *Raseyn, and the Naseem grandsons *Naborr, *Serafix, and *Silver Drift
have had a monumental impact on American Arabian breeding programs that is still felt
to this day.
Rifala
The dam of *Raffles.
