Extract

The chestnut stallion Monogramm was born in 1985 at Kay Patterson stud in Oregon (USA); by Negatraz out of Monogramma by Knippel. His basic measurements were: height at withers – 152 cm, girth circumference -170 cm, cannon circumference 18.5 cm. PASB (Polish Arabian Stud Book) T. XIII, Suppl. I, page 85; He came from USA to Poland on 04.12.1992.

Monogramm drew the attention of Michalów stud director, Mr Ignacy Jaworowski, who wanted to extend the sire line of great stallions Ofir and Witraz. This chestnut stallion was distinguished among his rivals by his beauty, harmony and great movement (Jaworowski 2001). After long discussion a contract was negotiated for his stay in Poland, particularly in Michalów stud, where he was used for covering mares for two seasons 1993-1994. His frozen semen was then used between 1995-1997. This valuable grandson of Bask by his best son Negatraz is from dam line of Mammona mare (by Ofir) (Chmiel 2002).
