DU Hallanys Juyl

DU Hallanys Juyl

DU Hallanys Juyl is a 1990 grey mare, bred by Dan Ulm and presently owned by Lisa Rettke of Rettke Arabians, Crane, Missouri. Lisa has created an interesting breeding program, as she blends Babson lines with those of Hallany Mistanny and Sirecho. DU Hallanys Juyl is physically representative of the type of horse produced by the combination of these bloodlines. When I asked Lisa specifically about this beautiful mare, she told me,

"The first time I saw Juyl was in a video. I had gotten the video from Tom Katona. He is the breeder of her colt, Hallanys Gem Tak. She was amazing! Her movement and grace were unmatched. I said someday she would live with me. Now she does forever!"

DU Hallanys Juyl's sire is the 1985 bay stallion, Fa Chancellor, who is by the black DU Hallanys Ebony and out of the grey Masada Saabellah, a sister to Masada Bellesabah (by Lothar) and Masada Bellisima (by Fabo). DU Hallanys Juyl's dam is DU Sheena, a Princeton Faaris daughter out of Jusera, who is by Julyan and out of Serasabba, a pure-in-the-strain Dahmah Shawaniyah, Serasabba was a Fabah daughter out of Serrasab, a Fay-Sabbah daughter by Fa-Serr.

Fay Sabbah was an outstanding broodmare at the Babson Farm, producing in addition to Serrasab, the mare Fadba by Faddan, who produced the son Faarad, the Babson horse who went to Rancho San Ignacio and sired influential mares in the RSI program like Gita, Bataara and Faara. Fay-Sabbah also produced by *Fadl, the mares Gammousa in 1946 and Sabl. Bred to the black stallion Fa-Serr, she also produced Sheba and Serr Sabbah, who incidentally produced a daughter named Ser Sabar, who in turn, produced a stallion by Ansata Abbas Pasha named Ru Egyptian Day, an important sire for Rudalaro.

In combining the blood of *Bint Bint Sabbah, a mare Babson had purchased from the RAS, with horses from the stud of Prince Kemal el Dine (*Bint Serra I) and Prince Mohamed Aly Tewfik (*Fadl, *Nasr, *Zarife and *Roda), as well as another RAS mare (*Exochorda), you multiply a diversity of  sources outside of mainstream straight Egyptian breeding, almost as if the blood is out-crossed. I think a mare like DU Hallanys Juyl has much to offer a straight Egyptian breeder, who is looking for something a little different, something a little rarer,  from today's over utilized and extremely popular Egyptian bloodlines. This blood is an alternative to going outside of the gene pool, for hybrid vigor and the benefit is, you don't lose the all important straight Egyptian identifier.

EnJoy,
Ralph
