Here’s the battery of stallions that lighted up Al-Marah for several decades. TOP LEFT: AM SEA CAPTAIN (Al-Marah Indraff x
AM Lady Inred by Al-Marah Radames) was cited by Lady Anne Lytton (Lady Wentworth’s daughter) in her 1977 visit to Al-
Marah as “one who completely took my fancy.” TOP CENTER: DREAMAZON (BF Rageymazon x Gai Dream by Gay-Rouge) sired
Arabian type and the Al-Marah beauty, plus athletic ability and performance versatility. TOP RIGHT: In the mid-1990s, OPALO
(Barich De Washoe x Brumarbas Jewell by Azraff) added a Spanish sire line to the Al-Marah program. 2 ND ROW LEFT:
AM COUNT PINE (
Count Dorsaz x Al-Marah Thrice Mine), king of the ranch, film star, highly esteemed sire, winning show
horse, clown, trick horse, and one of the most beloved of the Al-Marah stallions. 2 ND ROW CENTER: BREMERVALE DESTINY
(Oxford Decimus x Bremervale Zendi by Lord Gold-N-Glo) and trainer Victor Kerr showed off in harness at the Tucson ranch.

Bremervale Excalibur) “Andy” was named 2006
Sport Horse National Champion Stallion.

Champion Trail titles, and Jerry moved steadily
from the apprentice days to ranch manager.

moments came at the 1995 U.S. Nationals
