Amurath Isis

Amurath Isis was a 1972 grey mare, sired by the straight Egyptian stallion, *Ramses Fayek and out of the Plum Grove-bred mare, Amurath Kalahari (Fadi x *Sanacht). Amurath Isis was almost 70% Egyptian in blood and a beautiful mare, earning a Top Ten mare title in both the USA and Canada. She is pictured with her 1984 *Pesniar-sired filly, Amurath Illusion. In what appears, at first glance, to be an outcross pedigree, combining Egyptian, Polish and foundation American lines; when you look deeper, you will find the mare Hathor, a daughter of the stallion, Halef (Enwer Bey x *Kasztelanka) and Jatta, the mare sired by the Prince Mohamed Aly Tewfik-bred stallion, Jasir. Jatta is Amurath Isis' great-great grandam. When Hathor was bred to Hadban Enzahi, she produced the extraordinary broodmare, *Sanacht, imported by Paul Loeber, who in turn, was bred to the Fadjur son, Fadi. This cross of Fadi x *Sanacht provided the opportunity to double the blood of the Polish mare, *Kasztelanka and the Egyptian mare, Negma. *Sanacht was bred to Fadi multiple times, producing Amurath Isis' dam and also, her full sisters: Amurath Kasari in 1965 and Amurath Kashmira in 1966.
