About Kola
Kola was a chestnut Saklawiyah Jedraniyah born in 1912 at the stud farm of Mrs. Cushing in Pau, France. She was a correct and well-built mare with a wedge shaped head, long neck, strong back and high-carried tail. Her shoulder was rather straight and her ears could have been more detailed and better in shape.
Her sire was the desert bred stallion Latif, a Saklawi Jedran. Through Latif, Kola was half-sister to Denouste whose great grandson Manganate was a well-known race horse producer in France while Denouste's son Kann established a vital sire line in the Russia and Poland.
Kola's dam was a mare named Destinee by the desert bred stallion Maksoud out of Degourdie who traces back to the mare family of Abiannat.
While in France, Kola produced the purebred Arabian stallion Petard by Djebel and 4 Anglo Arabians. In 1922 she was imported by Mr. WR Brown of Maynesboro Stud, USA. At Maynesboro stud, she gave birth to 5 registered Arabian foals (3 fillies, 2 colts) before she was acquired by Mr. Sperry in Connecticut. Leaving another 4 foals, she was finally sold to Traveler's Rest Farm of General J.M. Dickinson where she produced her last foal, a colt named Orkhon by Ronek in 1938.
As Kola was a steady producer, her line can still be found in American pedigrees today which her three daughters Fadih, Roglemar Kolette and Fath contribute to. Kola died in 1939 at Traveler's Rest farm at the age of 27.
