[RC] Nobbys Pedigree - Tom Sites

Hello,  I know the top line well.  Menes (the gandsire) was the former head sire of Tersk.  The Russians didn't go by pretty. Performing at the track was the only criteria.  Now if you were pretty too that helped.  Menes was bought by Michael Weinstein and Aries Arabians and shipped back to the USA where he bred to the elite of the USA and was a prolific breeder.  He did not or maybe it was the owners did not make $$$ in USA as they paid high and the market went low .  Menes was sold somewhere in  Europe where he bred and his get  won 3 of 4 events in Paris at a world championship.  Menes was better understood in Europe i think.   Looking at Menes's pedigree i see names that are so cool.  ARAX  Nomenklatura  Mamona  OFIR   The Head Sire of them all AMIRITH-SAHIB  with SKOWRONEK thrown in.  Chagall was a Menes son by Cendenza.
 
So i'm happy to see the success of this horse Nobby.
