ML ARAB is located in Silkeborg, Denmark. Besides our Purebred Arabians, the family are Majbritt & Lars Bragen Ørnstedt, a few sweet longhaired cats - and our lovely smooth collie dogs. We bought our first Arabian in 1992, and have mainly bred horses out of Russian lines, both "Straight Russian" and "Russian Related" - the related lines mostly "mixed" with Polish or Polish/English blood. A few times we also added Egyptian and a Spanish line in our breeding.

The Russian and Polish lines have been our favourites from the beginning, as these lines often contain successfully performance horse, which also have done extremely well in the Showring. Both Russia and Poland "test" most of their horses (mainly on the racetrack), before they are used for breeding. The horses we have had in our breeding the last couple of years, was bred by Cedar Oak Arabians in France, Russian State Stud Tersk, The Kossack Stud Holland, Dorian Farm USA and Shah Arabians in France - to name a few. |

ML ARAB's goal is to breed Arabians with a beautiful typey "look", who at the same time are excellent performance prospects. It's very important for us that their lines are as well proven as possible - all our horses are out of well known bloodlines, with great results. It's also important that their pedigree, besides spectacular Stallions, contains a large number of exceptional and "strong" broodmares. We never had an ambition to be a "big" stud - on contrary it has been our wish to only keep a small number of horses, but out of as high quality as possible. The relative small number also means that we have a very close "personal" relationship with every single horse.

The pedigrees on the horses we have used in our
breeding program, contains magnificent stallions like: Padishah - Aswan - Menes - Piligrim - Gips - Abakan - Nadir I - Balaton - Monitor Karnaval - Drug - Gwizd - Moment - Komplekt - Mamluk - Nabeg - Morafic - Ibn Hafiza And not least out outstanding broodmares like: Brigantina - Molva - Amunitia - Monogramma - Karinka - Monopolia - Karta Postrup - Neschi - Purga - Kapella -Gho Gha - Panagia - Mammona - Kisra - Omnia |

All our horses live as natural as they possible can. If the weather is good, they spend most of their day outside in the pasture. The stallions are both in the paddocks, and in the stable standing next to either mares or young horses. This kind of life has made some very happy and balanced stallions. Our fields are divided into such sufficiently numbers of pastures, that the horses can go either in small herds, or be alone with their foals - which gives minimal risk for injuries.
|
Guests are always welcome to visit us and see our horses - also if it's just for a non-committal "look" and a nice "horse-chat". We occasionally have Arabians for sale in different ages/price ranges. Through the years we have helped a lot of people with buy/sale, choosing stallions etc. We have "co-operate" with both small "private" breeders and larger studs for many years, and can always refer to other Arabians for sales in Denmark - plus other countries as well.
