This much-anticipated pure Crabbet colt, from maiden mare Azarina and Gadebrook's young Reserve Futurity Endurance champion Hadiya, represents the fourth generation of Gadebrook breeding.

His name derives partly from his sire and dam, but also from his grand-dam Pevensey Zariffia and her dam Za'aria - a proud tradition of Crabbet Arabians bred in Australia and now flourishing back in Britain at Gadebrook.

As a 3-yr old he has been sold to a loving endurance home, having been gently backed by excellent trainer Richard Walker at Withcote Training.

Hazar was born on May Day 2020, three weeks overdue! With his very long legs, he will probably equal the height of his sire and dam, both 15.2hh. He was born bay but is going grey. We are thrilled that he gained Gold in the endurance section of the national Youngstock Futurity Evaluations in August, with excellent marks for movement and conformation. The result earned him 5th position overall and 3rd in the Endurance Foal section.

He is the friendliest soul, eager to please, happy to lead and a joy to watch racing round the field.

He is destined for a future in endurance, which should suit his easy-going temperament and athletic heritage. His grand-sire is Binley Prince Salim, a champion in British Dressage, in Endurance GB and the Overall Champion in the Arab Horse Society's Performance Horse Awards in 2013, winning the Dinsdale Trophy.
