Note the fine combination of both old and new Egyptian breeding in Blacklord Zydon'a pedigree. Fa-Serr, *Maaroufa, Alaa El Din, Ibn Tobruk, and Durrall lend credibility as well as prepotence to these dynamic Champion bloodlines. Blacklord Zydon's sire and dam AND all four of his grandparents were black giving this elegant stallion strong genetics for this coveted and ellusive color among Arabian horses. A touch of the great stallion *Bask++ through his superb champion son, Gdansk and champion grandson, Sams Ferrari, provides Blacklord Zydon with the Polish-Egyptian cross ~ one of the breed's most respected.
