*Muscat

*Muscat is one of the most famous Arabian stallions that has ever lived. He is the 4th leading producer of Arabians of all time, and is considered the leading progenitor of the Naseem sire line.

Born at Tersk stud in 1971 (by Salon and out of Malpia, a Priboj daughter), *Muscat was the youngest stallion ever utilized for breeding at the world-famous Tersk Stud, such was his greatness. Over a hundred international Champion sons and daughters of *Muscat grace the world's most recognized breeding programs.

In 1980, *Muscat is the first stallion ever to be named UC National Champion, Canadian National Champion and Scottsdale Champion all in the same year! *Muscat's offspring have been highly valued ion recognition of his beauty, athleticism and elegance demonstrated with correct conformation, a long neck, elegant balance and a dynamic trot.

The acquisition of *Muscat from the Russians was no easy task as Howard Kale Jr. took over a dozen trips to Terk and had to trade two of America's finest Standardbred stallions valued at a million dollars each for him. Lead ropes exchanged on the Polish/Russian border and the legendary journey began.

The incredible journey progressed to Taylor Ranch as Rick and Paula united *Muscat with exquisite mares and welcomed people from around the world to partake in their commitment to excellence.
