1977 Grey Purebred Arabian Stallion 

(May 9,  1977  -  December 13, 2004)

It is with heavy hearts that we must tell you of the passing of our beloved Amurath Baikal. This beautiful horse was very special indeed. From the eliteness of his pedigree ( a son of *Sanacht - the second all time leading dam of Champions of the Arabian breed and by the incomparable *Bask) to his success as a show horse (1980 US Reserve National Futurity Champion Stallion) to his success as a sire (JK Jedi, Autumn Myste, Earl Grey, Amurath Muntahi and his many other sons and daughters treasured by so many around the world). But mostly Amurath Baikal was so special because he epitomized what the Arabian horse should be:  he was beautiful, extremely typey, dignified, elegant and had so much heart. It was this heart that enabled him to live such a long fruitful life. It was a joy just to be able to look after him for so many years and to be greeted by his beauty every day. It was an honour to know that he was known by people world wide and respected for the beautiful, noble horse he was. We will always miss him terribly, but are at peace with the fact that for his entire life he was loved by everyone who was privileged enough to be able to care for him and was always treated with the most respect and love that any horse could want.

We are indeed fortunate to have a beautiful son, Earl Grey, and daughters, Simply The Best and Maid Marion RF to carry on the Baikal legacy for us.
