    Serene Miki - Part Arabian

    https://www.hrnz.co.nz/news/serene-m...-standardbred/

    A recent workout winner in Canterbury, Serene Miki is no ordinary standardbred.

    In fact she’s only part standardbred. She’s out of a part-Arabian mare, Sophie Serene, and is potentially the first horse with Arab bloodlines to be registered with Harness Racing New Zealand for around 70 years.


    The Arabian - standardbred combo is unusual. In the early 1900s it was commonplace, but numbers dwindled.

    It’s believed the last “Arabian” horse to be registered in this country was Wedgewood in July 1946.

    He first bred a full Arabian to a SB then the half Arabian to a SB, I am guessing that ¾ SB must be the minimum to be included in the Stud Book

    It's a novelty Trev, a bit like coloured horses - makes for better reading than Integrity matters
    I remember when an interesting coloured horse raced at Horsham a few years ago - I thought it was a great opportunity to market him as the Disney horse Spirit ( 5 starts revealed that promotions would be his forte)
    He is now available at stud - A Bit Of Bling
