May 2011 We are happy and proud to welcome KR Amajarr.

We are very happy to annonce that Alaska QQ has done it again. The 14th of May Alaska gave us a superb offspring, when she foaled with a wonderful Straight Russian Colt, who we have named KR Amajarr (AF Umoyo x Alaska QQ x Vatican). KR Amajarr looks like he is going to be just as gorgeous and beautiful as his fullsister AF Avania, as he has an excellent type with big "dish", beautiful eyes and a good, well propositioned and strong body with very long legs. Only 3 days old he has started to trot around with big and elastic movements. We are very happy and proud of Alaska QQ's first foal at Kres Arabians.

May 2011 Masha is in foal at Maxima Arabians.

I am so pleased to announce that Masha is in foal to Max you Marc (QR Marc x Maxima Bint Eternity x Eternity Ibn Navarrone D). Masha is leased out for a period of 2 years to Maxima Arabians. We hope that Masha will give Maxima Arabians 2 beautyful foals and we will look forward to welcome Masha back home in our breeding programme.

January 2011 Masha is leased out to Maxima Arabians for the next 2 years.

Shortly after I had announced my problems with Masha on the website (regarding getting Masha in foal), I was contacted by Line from Maxima Arabians, who asked if I would be interested in leasing out Masha for a 2 year period. Line will breed Masha with her own stallion Max De Marc (QR Marc x Maxima Bint Eternity x Eternity Ibn Navarrone D). I hope so much Line will succeed getting Masha in foal, and I wish you good luck.. Masha has already moved to Maxima Arabians on Fyn and is settling down in her new home for the next two years.

September 2010 New Mare - Alaska QQ

I am happy and proud to welcome Alaska QQ to Denmark with me. Alaska QQ is purchased from Arabian Fantasie in spring 2010, but since Alaska QQ went with foal at side; AF Alistiar by Kais, I chose to get her home this autumn after weaning. Alaska QQ is 16 years old and she has made many fine offsprings at Arabian Fantasie and in addition, she is ridden and has the most desirable temperament. I am so excited to get to know her very well and share the future with her .. Back in 2004-2005, Alaska QQ's son MM Sultan was shown on the show in Denmark, and back then it was a stallion that I noticed and fall in love with. I have followed him on the sidelines since, so I was very happy when I got the opportunity to buy his mother. Thanks to Abigail and Chris for the opportunity. Alaska QQ has her own page under the menu 'Mares'.

New logo and design on website

It has long been a desire to have redesigned the website. Also a new logo has been planned for a long time. The old pink/black design would have been 7 years old next year- but now there has been time to renew Kres Arabians's design.

July 2010 KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan og Anne Marie Rasmussen

KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan ( 4 years) and Anne Marie Rasmussen had a terrific start to Masho's career as a riding horse - it's become several succes's and also wins in youngstock competition classes and the two are now preparing for LA classes in 2011. Anne Marie and Masho were participating at DSAH Arabian Horse Event 2010 and I was there with my camera.

June 2010 Alaska QQ is in foal with AF Umoyo

Alaska QQ is in foal with AF Umoyo (Nadir I x Mirkana x Mirok Monpelou) for 2011. Masha is by Nadir - Mirok Monpelou is father of Mirokan which was used on Masha in 2005 and resulted in KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan. I'm very excited about the combination Alaska QQ x AF Umoyo - which are tried before and resulted in stunning AF Avanya, sold to Kuwait. At Alaska QQ's page under 'Mares', there are pictures of AF Avanya and also pictures by some of Alaska's other offsprings.

May 2010 Breeding by Kubinec

This year I decided to buy a another breeding by Kubinec for Masha. In consultation with the vet we took a biopsy on Masha when she was not pregnant - during the summer. Masha has this year been found difficult, perhaps impossible, to get in foal ever again. Stöckle has fortunately allowed me to use the breeding at Alaska QQ next year - which I am very grateful.

2008 KR Anyaliya
One of the reasons why it has been difficult for me to update the website, is the loss of KR Antaliya (Padishah x Anouschka S) due to illness in 2008. Back in 2006 I sold almost all my horses, among them also KR Antaliya's mother and kept Masha and KR Antaliya as basis for my further breeding. I have in 2004 and 2005, spent much effort to get Anouschka S in foal with Padishah. Loosing the dream about the combination Padishah x Anuschka S, - and the sweet soul Antaliya - has been almost unbearable for me. During the hard time where KR Antaliya sick and especially about the time where she was leaving this world - I got the warmest support and back up from very special people. Thanks Birthe and Majbritt - thanks for the support, all the practical help, all the talks on the phone and all thoughts ..

February 2009 KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan has been sold

I am very happy and proud to congratulate Anne Marie Rasmussen with the purchase of KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan (Mirokan x Masha x Nadir I), who is going to be her future dressage horse. Unfortunately it's not possible for Anne Marie to keep stallions at her place, but she is going to cover two of her mares with Mashokan in early spring before he is gelded: Riyaala (Nashaal x Mareschal) -Who is allready in foal Evita JC (Padrons Kadar x Ibn Estasha) Originally Mashokan was supposed to be sold primarily for breeding/show and I have looked much forward to see how he would produce, also compared to his ¾ brothers Massai Ibn Marenga and Massimo Ibn Mirokan. But in this case I decided to compromise, both because I know Mashokan will have a fantastic life with Anne Marie, plus in 2008 his dam Masha had another colt by Kubinec, which I can use in my future breeding. Mashokan has settled down perfectly in his new home, and now we have our fingers crossed for some lovely babies next year. All the best of luck to you Anne Marie - I am looking forward to see the two of you compete in dressage later on.

May 2008 KR Kaltan (Kubinec x Masha)

Masha (Nadir I x Marenga x Menes) gave birth d. 4. may to an amazing Staight Russian colt by Kubinec (Balaton x Kosmetika x Muscat), and he is named KR Kaltan. It has been a dream for a long time to do the combination between Masha and Kubinec. More information about Masha can be found on her page under 'Mares'. -KR Kaltan vil also be represented under 'Stallions' soon.

KR Kaltan, only few days old.

April 2007 Makao is sold

Makao was sold in April and will move to his new home in beginning of May. I wish Ann Pia Aasted Jespersen and Family all the best of luck with him. I hope Makao will give you as much joy and happiness, as he has given me. Makao is such a sweet gentle stallion, which deserves only the best - and I am convinced that he will have a great home with you. Anuschka is also doing very well with her new owners - it means a lot to me to hear that the horses has settled down perfect in their new homes.

January 2007 Anuschka S is sold

A huge congratulation to Jannie Bachmann with her purchase of Anuschka S. I wish You the best in the future.

December 2006 Horses available for purchase

Due to different circumstances I have to stable all my horses elsewhere for a longer period, and because of this I have decided to sell several of them. The Stud will be put a bit on stand by the next couple of years and besides the ones for sale, the mares Masha (Nadir I x Marenga x Menes) and KR Antaliya (Padishah x Anuschka S x Versal) will for a while be stabled with some of my dearest friends.

August 2006 Amirihe and KR Astrakhan is sold

A huge congratulation to Linda Fallquist & Morgan Olsson from Sweden with their purchase of Amirihe and KR Astrakhan. In august they arrived in their new home - both of them handled the transport great and have settled down perfectly at Linda and Morgans's place. We wish you all the best of luck with them in future - and hope Amirihe will produce excellent offspring with your handsome stallion, plus you will have lots of success with Astrakhan in performance later on.

July 2006 KR Astrakhan

The 14. Of July we got a splendid chestnut colt from by Makao and out of Amirihe, who we have named KR Astrakhan. He has a beautiful type with good conformations, and was already as a newborn very tall and with long legs. Both because of his pedigree and not least all his siblings, we expect him to be a first-class performance prospect with nice "Arabic" look. You can find more information about Astrakhan's parents on their own pages.

June 2006 KR Antaliya

The 5. of June Anuschka S (Wersal x Astronomia x Mascat) gave birth to a gorgeous Straight Russian Filly by Padishah (Drug x Purga x Gwizd), who we named KR Antaliya. She is bay with splendid type, wide forehead and the most beautiful eyes. Antaliya has great conformation and we are sure that she will have the big well-known "Russian Movements". Her Sire is one of the best moving Russian Stallions in Europe - and Anuschka also has excellent movements. We are so happy that we got a little girl. For a long time it has been our huge hope to get an offspring by Padishah, and we bought the breeding already in 2004. But because of different circumstances she had a bit tough and unstable season and sadly did not get pregnant that year. But in 2005 she began the season with great stabile heats and was such a good girl that she got in foal already after the first insemination. It is almost too good to be true that we also were lucky to get a filly, now our dream of a future broodmare by Padishah has been fulfilled. KR Antaliya will soon get her own page on the menu "Mares" with pictures and much more information about her lines.

April 2006 KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan

We are proud to announce that Masha the 7. Of April has foaled with an outstanding colt by Mirokan - we have named him KR Mashokan Ibn Mirokan. He has a gorgeous type and it already now looks like he is going to be just as "Showy" as his full sister MW Iphigenia (who was exported as a foal to New Zealand in 2005). The head is short with a wonderful "dish" and big beautiful eyes. Mashokan has excellent conformation and a great "Look at me" attitude - so with his "Russian" movements he will be a real "eye-catching" Stallion. Based on his quality and bloodlines, we expect him to be a good prospect for both Show and Breeding, and not least for performance. Mashokan's pedigree contains some of the most successful Russian horses in Europe. His Sire Mirokan is one of SAX's leading Stallions and has in the Showring gained titles like: Champion Stallion and Gold Ribbon Stallion. Mirokan is by European Champion Mirok Monpelou (by Vatican). Masha is International Foal Champion and her Sire is the European Champion Nadir I - a stallion who is very well known in Europe, both as a Show horse but indeed also as a producer of offspring with exceptional type and nice movements. Masha's dam is the fantastic Menes daughter Marenga - for many years one of SAX's finest broodmares and among others the dam of Massai Ibn Marenga, Massimo Ibn Mirokan and the superb mare Marena. Marenga has, besides her success as a broodmare, also great results in the Showring, where she gained titles likes: European Junior Champion, German National Junior Champion, European res. Senior Champion etc. Masha can be found with her own page on the menu "Mares", where there are more information about her bloodlines and pictures.

January 2006 Happy New Year

2005 has passed and we stand at the beginning for 2006. Happy New Year to everyone.

Masha, Amirihe og Anuschka

2005 was an eventful year for us. A great experience was when Amirihe foaled a stunning foal by DSA Bali from ML ARAB . We had so hoped that it was a little girl who would thus be one of our future broodmares. That was not to be, but instead we got a gorgeous colt - KR Ataman , which has since been sold to adorn Arabians . Helle and Karsten says that he continues to develop fine and we are convinced that it is a stallion we will hear more in future. Amirihe was covered with Makao in 2005 and we expect her offspring at the end of June 2006. We have done this combination before, and hope to get an equally nice offspring as KR Anisya . 2005 was also the year when it finally managed to get Anuschka S pregnant with Padishah from Cedar Oak Arabians , France. We've had some problems with her in the previous year, but this season she started up with a nice heat and became pregnant at the first attempt. We are so excited regarding this offspring and look forward indescribable much. Anuschka are still ridden and going great. We therefore was looked forward to start her to Equestrian Show at Vilhelmsborg, but it falls sadly with her foaling. We hope to spend the early spring for some other small shows. Masha has fallen really well in her new home here at us, and is a wonderful sweet mare to be around. She has fully met our expectations of a nice Mare - and not least the dream of getting Nadir I 's lines in our barn. 2005 has also been a year where we could begin to follow more of Makao's first offspring in the equestrian sport. It's been a great pleasure for us that several of his offspring are doing well in long distance. Best wishes to all for a good and successful 2006 season - Kate

October 2005 KR Markomir is sold

We wish Alice Rasmussen to congratulation with KR Markomir. Alice will use Markomir in the equestrian sport. We wish you all the best in the future and we will look forward to keep in touch with you.

New mare - Masha

For a while it has been our hope to include Nadir I and his bloodlines in our breeding program. So it's with great joy we welcome Masha (Nadir I x Marenga x Menes) to Kres Arabians, as one of the broodmare. Masha is bred by SAX Arabians in Germany, but was bought from Mattrup Arabians. Thank you Louise & Anders Westenholz for making it possible to buy such a fantastic mare - it has been a pleasure to do business with you. Masha is a gorgeous girl with a pedigree that includes only the best Russian horses for Show & Breeding. She is in foal to Champion Stallion Mirokan, and is due middle of Mai 2006. For more information about Masha, take a look under "Mares".

August 2005 KR Ataman is sold

KR Ataman (DSA Bali x Amirihe x Preference) has just been sold to Helle & Karsten/Adorn Arabians. He will travel to his new home after having been weaned in december/january. If Ataman develops as well as expected, he will be the new Sire at their stud - Helle & Karsten also look very much forward to use his great capacity as a Performance horse, and not least to Show him. I am so happy that Ataman's new home is with you - and look forward to see how he develops the next couple of years. I wish you all the best with him in the future.

July 2005 Anuschka inseminated and pregnant!

I am very happy to announce that this year we succeeded, with the first insemination, to get Anuschka S in foal with Padishah (Drug x Purga x Gwizd). Padishah is European res. Champion, World Top Ten Stallion & French National Champion etc. in the Showring. He is one of the best Russian Stallions in Europe today, and the most successful son of European Champion and Derby Winner Drug. Padishah was bred by State Stud Tersk in Russia, and is now owned by Cedar Oak Arabians France. In Denmark he is available with frozen semen, managed by ML ARAB. Anuschka is due ultimo May 2006.

June 2005 KR Ataman

The 6 of June Amirihe gave birth to a magnificent colt by ML ARAB's DSA Bali. KR Ataman, as we named him, has from beginning made people fall in love at first sight. He has the most FANTASTIC movements, which was the absolute first thing I discovered, as he "showed off" with a big elastic trot, only 12 hours old. Ataman has extremely good conformation and body, - long correct legs, superb well-set neck and hindquarters, that promise a First-Class performance horse. His type is gorgeous, - a really "high" and large forehead, wonderful and very expressive eyes. Ataman's curiosity is one of the things, which makes his personality so charming and lovely. Amirihe and I will have our hands full with teaching and training this amazing little boy, who meet the whole world with an arched neck - totally unimpressed of it all. There is more information to be found on the menu "Offspring".

Here at Kres Arabians Makao is busy with his Riding, -Amirihe is great shape and I can hardly wait for her baby in June.

September 2004 Anuschka and Louise's first riding contest.

On the 19.9.2004 Anuschka went to her first riding contest. It's not so long time since she was broken in, so it was mainly to get the "young couple" started. Anuschka was ridden by Louise Hansen, and they accomplished to be familiar with all the new impression (incl. being in an indoor arena for the first time). Louise and Anuschka was a beautiful "couple" and got many nice comments from the audience, also the judged wrote a nice review - which we of course were quite happy about. It defiantly turned out to be a very good day for us. It's our plan that Louise and Anuschka, in the winter season, will attend to other small dressage contest as well. I wish you both good luck!!

Anuschka og Louise, first riding competition

August 2004 Makao is now fully owned by Kres Arabians.

Kres Arabians has from august 2004 taken over the full ownership of Makao, because Skovager Arabians, due to certain circumstances, is now closing their stud for some years. Because of a virus in the stable where Makao was standing, we could not accept any "outside mares" for breeding in 2004, or even move our own mares to the stable to be bred, neither was it possible to take him to any public events. Luckily the situation is now perfectly fine again, and from the 2005 season Makao are ready to receive a limited number of suitable "outside mares" in his new home in Slagelse. Please contact us for further information, terms etc.

June 2004 Yet another precious foal at Kres Arabians !!

The 21.6.2004 Meksikana gave birth to a healthy and strong colt. It's our first foal from the combination Makao x Meksikana - and we are very happy about the results. KR Markomir has from the day he was born,showed superb movements, so it looks like he got his sire and dam's magnificent movements. Markomir is chestnut and we think he will keep this colour. He is a very handsomecolt with nice type and a good correct body. We have huge expectation to him as a performance horse, and think Markomir will do well in dressage and show jumping - but he is also an excellent prospect for racing or endurance riding. We look very much forward to follow him in the future. More info: 'Offspring' and 'For Sale'.

Juni 2004 A gorgeous little filly has been born - KR Anisya

Amirihe gave birth the 8.5.2004 to a beautiful and healthy chestnut filly. It's our first foal by Makao (who we bought in 2003) and all our expectation has been fulfilled. KR Anisya, as her name is, has a lovely type with short head, and a nice correct body/topline. Her movements are excellent - very powerful and elastic. Last not least She has an incredible sweet character. We look forward to follow her in the future, both as a performance horse and as a broodmare.

April 2004 News from our former mare Merada

Last year, in august, we sold the lovely mare Merada, who because of certain circumstances, could not be used as a broodmare. It was very hard for us to take the decision to sell her,that's why we are so happy to tell, that we succeeded in finding a good home for her, and she is doing great with her new owner. We sold her to Stina Hougaard who is using Merada for riding. The two of them has, through the winter, spend many hourson their dressage training, and in beginning of spring they were ready for their first small horse show for riders. We wish you both all the best - thank you Stina for taking such good care of Merada and for keeping us informed, so we can follow her in the future.
