[RC] Arab riders' blood lines - Maryanne Gabbani

I checked with my local bloodline experts to find out exactly who all these folks are:

The winner is the grandson of Sheikh Zayed of Abu Dhabi, the other Hazza (number 1) is his uncle, the son of Sheikh Zayed. So is number 2, Mansour. Number 12, who got pulled, is the brother of the winner.

Maktoums:

Third went to HE Mohamed Maktoum.  His sons are numbers:
3     Hamdan
5     Majid
10   Rashid
and number 6 is his grandson Rashid son of Hamdan

With all this work just to keep track of people, it's no wonder that the Arabs could carry a horse pedigree in their heads. Most Arabs can give you their fathers, grandfathers, etc back at least 6 or 7 generations.
