Skowronek by Ibrahim (Heijer x Lafitte)
out of Jaskoulka (Rymnik x Epopea by Dervish out of Lyra)
Skowronek was probably the greatest recorded Arabian sires of all time. His influence has
been nothing short of amazing and spans much of the recognized modern Arabian horse
breeding world. -- Skowronek by Carol W. Mulder
NEGATIW, leading sire of breed on three continents. Progenitor of the SKOWRONEK sire line in Russia and
Poland and producer of superb sires (*Naborr, *Salon, *Bandos) and broodmares. ALL of his daughters were incorporated into the Polish breeding program! -- Pedigree Notes - TAIFUN by *Daalda Fiolek by Negatiw
There are surprisingly few sire lines in the Arabian breed, and the
pre-1950 North American ones almost all trace ultimately to Ibrahim
(Skowronek) or Zobeyni (Mesaoud, whose strongest branch is
*Astraled to Gulastra; and Mahruss to Rijm). -- CMK Sire Lines by Michael Bowling
*Raffles is considered one of the
most important stallions ever to come to the United
States. His prepotence was due to the fact that he was
inbred, a product of his sire, Skowronek put to his own
daughter, *Rifala. -- Three Great Crabbet Sires: *Serafix, Silver Vanity, *Raffles (Georgia Cheer)
