Simeon Stud

Ruth and Peter Simon, with daughter Marion Richmond, started Simeon Stud in 1956 with just one mare, Fuewasa, who was purchased from the Australian Government Stud. Fuewasas great granddaughter Simeon Shirli (Dresden x Simeon Sharon) became world famous due to the amazing family she produced, with champions around the globe. This family includes he... r direct progeny Simeon Sanegor (x Simeon Saar), Simeon Shomer (x Simeon Saar) and Simeon Asarte (x Imperial Madaar), and her grandget Simeon Sidrah, Champion Filly in the UAE amongst so many more. The stud only breeds straight Egyptian horses now, yet continue to find much pride in the Fuewasa family which still produces champions for their many owners to this day. Simeon Stud purchased a small group of exceptional fillies in 1976, including two Aswan fillies from the Tersk Stud in the U.S.S.R who were kept in Europe and Damirah, a Hadban Enzahi daughter from Marbach Stud in Germany who was an Australian National Champion Mare and who had the honour of producing the first El Shaklan foal. This chestnut colt was named Simeon Saar, and he became a National Champion Stallion in Australia and sire of significance, siring Simeon Sanegor amongst others. Another of the fillies purchased in 1976 was the Straight Egyptian 27 Ibn Galal V, an almost perfect dark liver chestnut two year old mare with a flaxen mane. She was purchased from the picturesque Government stud in Babolna, Hungary. 27 Ibn Galal V was first seen harnessed to a heavy flatbed farm dray and had already racedso she knew how to work. Eventually she became Australias first Australian National Champion Mare in 1982, as did her daughter, Simeon Sukari, and her grand daughters Simeon Salome and Simeon Sehavi.
