Fontenay) and Passem Lotois
1990 (x Scherazade du Lot). His
son Nougatin 1994 (x
Nouillaugratin) was the first
French sire to be used at Tersk
since Kann. Nougatin was, to be
truthful, the least attractive
Arabian I have ever seen, but he
appears to have done a very good
job at Tersk. Besides several race
winners, he also sired the very
handsome stallion Nonius 2001 (x
Nakhodka), one of the current
chief sires. the dark bay Barour de Cardonne
1992 (x Pistache de Cassou), also

racehorses in Europe. His best-
known sons include Nil Bedouin
1999 (x Nil Tahani) in Switzerland
and Love Me Tender 1999 (x Gran)
in Holland. Manganate’s perhaps
most handsome son, Pavot al

was used in Britain, Djel Bon 1990

son Mythos 2001 (x Isy) was most
successful German racehorse for
several successive years and was
licensed in 2009 with premium
