I don't think the following list of progeny (mares appear in bold face type) is complete for *GAF Wesam but I hope it gives you a better idea of how he was used at stud and how his influence may still be available today. He sired horses with both the "El Ghorab" prefix used by Barbara Johanson and with the "Mijan" prefix, utilized by Mike and Janet Bazell, of Mijan Farms in Rockbridge, Ohio, who owned *GAF Wesam, later in his life.

MIJAN BUKRASAM 1996 Stallion GreyIn our breed, the genetic strength of a horse is measured through the reproductive achievement of the dam. In *GAF Wesam's case, his dam was one of the greatest mares bred at the RAS. How great of a mare was Bukra? Consider what Dr. Hans Nagel, in his noteworthy book, HANAN, said, "Bukra was the start of a new family which should be preserved in its unique form. Some of her daughters and granddaughters as well as her male descendants are among the most perfect specimens ever foaled at El Zahraa."
