The greatest mares leave more than memories in the show ring… They leave a legacy. For every breeder, there comes a moment when admiration for a mare begins to transform into anticipation. The anticipation of what she may one day contribute to the breed we all cherish. With D Henneyyah, that journey has already begun. Foaled in 2020, this exceptional mare carries a pedigree that reflects generations of thoughtful breeding. She is a daughter of D Shagran, by the legendary Versace and out of the globally admired FT Shaella, while her dam, D Haneen, is by the incomparable Fa El Rasheem and out of Fer Fiera Blanca. It is a lineage woven from beauty, refinement, charisma, and enduring Arabian type, qualities that continue to define her today. Now the proud dam of Hessa Al Jood, a beautiful 2026 filly by TM Itaipu, Henneyyah offers us another glimpse of the qualities that first made her so special, elegance, femininity, balance, and that unmistakable Arabian expression that captivates at first sight. Pedigrees may introduce a horse, but it is through their offspring that great mares truly speak. As breeders, we are merely custodians of generations. Every carefully planned mating is an investment in the future of the Arabian horse, built upon the hope that timeless beauty, athleticism, and noble character will continue to flourish. Watching Hessa Al Jood grow reminds us why this pursuit is so deeply rewarding. She represents not only the union of two exceptional bloodlines, but another chapter in a story that is only just beginning. We look forward to watching both mother and daughter continue their journey, each carrying forward the qualities that make the Arabian horse unlike any other. D Henneyyah, already a champion in her own right, and now beginning what may become her greatest role of all.

Some horses capture your eye. A rare few capture your imagination. AJ Bahja is one of those mares who reminds us why we dedicate our lives to breeding the Arabian horse. Not simply to preserve beauty, but to protect the qualities that cannot be measured on paper alone, presence, charisma, intelligence, and that unmistakable feeling when they step into view. Every breeder knows that moments like this are never an accident. They are the result of generations of thoughtful decisions, patience, vision, and an unwavering belief that each new generation can be even better than the last. Our 2014 born mares sired by Vervaldee (Versace x Giavanna) and out of AJ Basma by WH Justice, with the beautiful JJ Ballarina carried through her tail-female family, AJ Bahja represents a pedigree built with purpose. Yet even the finest bloodlines only tell part of the story. The rest is written in moments like these, when elegance becomes effortless, and attitude becomes art. This is the passion that unites Arabian horse breeders around the world: chasing that perfect balance of type, athleticism, expression, and soul.

There is something profoundly special about a mare’s first foal. It is the moment where promise becomes legacy, where years of careful breeding take their first step into the future. It is the beginning of a story that has never been told before. This season, Elba Al Jood has gifted us her new beginning. A young grey mare of remarkable beauty and refinement, Elba represents generations of thoughtfully preserved bloodlines. She is sired by the 2019 Silver World Champion Shanghai EA, the exceptional son of the legendary WH Justice and Salymah (Khidar × Libanon Azadika NL), a pedigree admired throughout the Arabian horse world for its natural beauty and charisma. Her dam, our treasured AJ Ebtisam, brings another layer of distinction. Bred by the renowned Ajman Arabian Stud, Ebtisam is by the Straight Egyptian stallion Al Ayal AA (Al Ayad × The Vision HG by Thee Desperado) and out of Elettra (Hadidi × Afrodite by Andoy), making her a maternal sister to the internationally celebrated Shael Dream Desert. This year, that heritage takes on new meaning. Elba has welcomed her very first foal, a captivating 2026 filly named Etna Al Jood by El Tino (DA Valentino × Imprimista CF). More than the arrival of a new life, she represents the continuation of a family, and the foundation of a new generation proudly bred at Al Jood Stud. Every great breeding programme is built one mare at a time. With Elba, the future is no longer something we imagine. It is standing beside her.

She Was Never Meant to Be the End of a Story Some mares leave behind foals. The exceptional ones leave behind a future. When D Henneyyah first entered our lives, we admired the beauty of her pedigree, the refinement she carried, and the promise she represented. Yet no pedigree, however distinguished, truly reveals itself until it begins speaking through the next generation. Today, that voice has a name. Hessa Al Jood. Born in 2025, she is the first Al Jood bred daughter of our cherished mare, D Henneyyah (D Shagran × D Haneen by FA El Rasheem), and with her arrives something profoundly meaningful to us, not merely another generation, but the first page of a family whose story will now be written here at Al Jood Stud. Chosen to complement this treasured mare, TM Itaipu (El Tino × Faizah Carol by Shael Dream Desert) contributes his own unmistakable elegance, creating a union that reflects both heritage and hope. For a breeder, there are moments that cannot be measured by ribbons, championships or accolades. Watching the first daughter of a mare you believe in stand before you is one of them. It is a quiet affirmation that years of patience, careful decisions and unwavering conviction can take living form. As we look at Hessa today, we do not see certainty, for certainty has no place in breeding. We see possibility. And perhaps that is even more beautiful. Because every great family begins with one generation entrusted to the next. For D Henneyyah, that generation has begun. For Al Jood Stud, so has another chapter.

WŁODAWA Some photographs preserve more than a moment, they preserve a promise. When this image was captured, our beloved Włodawa was carrying the life of the filly we now proudly know as Warda Al Jood, our beautiful 2026 daughter by AJ Kafu. A quiet reminder that every great pedigree continues through the next generation. Born in 2017 at the world-renowned Stadnina Janów Podlaski in Poland, Włodawa embodies generations of exceptional Polish Arabian breeding. She is sired by Pomian, a son of the World Champion Gazal Al Shaqab (Anaza El Farid × Kajora), and out of Pilar (Fawor × Pipi by Banat), combining one of the most influential modern sire lines with the treasured Polish ‘P’ family. Through her dam Wologda, by the legendary Ekstern (Monogramm × Ernestyna by Piechur) and out of Wanilia (Alegro × Wizyta), she carries another distinguished branch of Poland’s enduring Arabian heritage. Already the proud dam of Walha Al Jood (2023, by Shanghai EA), Włodawa now adds another treasured chapter through Warda Al Jood. Watching this young mare become a producer of the next generation has been as rewarding as watching her shine in her own right. There is something truly special about mares like Włodawa. Their beauty may first capture the eye, but it is the legacy they leave through their daughters that shapes the future. Every foal is a new beginning. Every generation, another page in a story that continues to unfold.

A Legacy in Bloom Framed by blossoms and bathed in evening light, D Sabaheyyah stands as a living reflection of the heritage she carries so effortlessly. Born in 2018, this exquisite mare unites some of the most celebrated bloodlines in the Arabian horse world. She is sired by the legendary FA El Rasheem (FA El Shawan × Virtuosa MLR by Versace) and out of D Sahabah, a daughter of the iconic WH Justice, descending through Kar Hacina (El Perfecto × Gual Hassika by Pepete). There is a quiet confidence about her, an elegance that does not demand attention, yet never escapes it. In every refined feature and every graceful line, the influence of Rasheem, Justice, Versace, and El Perfecto is beautifully preserved, creating a mare whose presence speaks long before words are needed. Today, D Sabaheyyah’s greatest contribution may be the one still unfolding. As a treasured broodmare at Al Jood Stud, she is passing her beauty, refinement, and treasured genetics to the next generation through her daughter Shadya Al Jood (by TM Itaipu). And now expecting her next foal in the nearby future. A bloom of heritage, carrying tomorrow within her.
