What is a "Gainey Arabian"..???

It was the horses bred by Gainey Fountainhead
Arabians.  The Gainey program was based on the
crossing of the two stallions Azraff & Ferzon on each
other's daughters.  The Gainey type was very fixed,
and these horses can "look Gainey" generations down
the line.

Today, Gainey Arabians still exists, but they use
different bloodlines (the owner is a grandchild of the
original owner).  

There are breeders (usually on a small scale) who
continue to breed the Azraff/Ferson or "Gainey"
Arabian.  I'm one of them. :)
