| Fa Adorah Mia (Fa Ali Bey x Fa Bint Aanisah) |
Fa Adorah Mia is a 2017 black mare, sired by an exciting black son of Justynn (Alixir x Bint Bint Justina) and out of Fa Bint Aanisah, who combines many of the important ancestral elements (Babson+Ansata Ibn Halima+Bukra+Sirecho) within Marilyn Lang's unique, long-running, multi-generational breeding program at Fantasia Arabians, Sealy, Texas.
Fa Adorah Mia, through the Fa Daalim daughters: Fa Aanisah and Fa Badiiah Anniq, carries approximately 20% of Fa Daalim's influence in her genetic mix. Fa Daalim, a Daaldan son out of the *Ansata Ibn Halima daughter, Bint Fa Dena, was a beloved foundation sire for Marilyn.

What's interesting about Fa Daalim is his Babson heritage. In addition to *Bint Serra, (he was one of a few horses who traced back to this mare in tail female line), Fa Daalim's pedigree also includes lines to *Bint Saada, *Bint Bint Sabbah and *Bint Bint Durra. While *Bint Bint Sabbah is widely represented in Babson breeding, the other two mares are not. Fa Daalim does not carry any lines to *Maaroufa, a prolific mare in the Babson program. However, Fa Daalim's genetic fiber does include *Fadl, Maaroufa's full brother.
Another interesting perspective is found in Fa Bint Aanisah, Fa Adorah Mia's dam and a Fa Daalim granddaughter. If you follow her tail female line, you will find the 1976 mare, Sar Falih Fatah, a Sar Fadl Halim (*Ansata Ibn Halima x Sabrah) daughter out of Belle Yanaa, a Bel Gordas daughter.

Do you know the significance of this mare in the long line of mares deep within this tail female line? If I count all of the generations bred by Marilyn Lang, on both sides of the pedigree, the number of generations is 11. I don't know of many programs, still extant, who have bred so deeply as Marilyn's program has. Combining the carefully chosen ancestral elements I mentioned above; Marilyn has skillfully blended these elements to consistently produce strong bodied horses, with an abundance of classic Arabian horse type, like Fa Adorah Mia.
