Purebred Arabian Filly, F28642
Sire: Gai El Jullyen (imp USA) - Dam: The Palms Uptown Girl
Gaisha Girl was an ideal purchase as a purebred mare for Shatana Arabians even though the transaction took place whilst she was a new born in 2007.
At an early age she exhibited all the qualities we admired, a superb body, beautiful shape to neck, a dishy face and large liquid eyes.
Now as a rising 2 year old she still holds all the above attributes accompanied by a fantastic look at me attitude and an animated trot with plenty of snort and blow which has helped her gain championships at A class shows, Runner Up at Pan Pac and Top of The Range Shows as well as consecutive Top 5 awards at The QLD Challenge amongst some of the most hotly contested filly classes Australia has seen.
This amazing filly boasts an amazing pedigree. Sired by The East Coast Champion Stallion, Gai El Jullyen who is in turn by Jullyen EL Jamaal a stallion line bred to the immortal Ali Jamaal.
Gaisha Girls dam is also an East Coast Champion, the ethereal white mare The Palms Uptown Girl who is line bred to the exceptional mares Flabys Sar Monisa and Naadirah.
Gaisha Girl is Maturing beautifully and will return to the show ring for 2010.

She was then shown sparingly to win Supreme Champion AWB at the Autumn Spectacular show, Championships at the Qld Challenge Show in 2007 and 2008 and Top of the Range Arabian Show, to date she has never been beaten in her age group.
With a pedigree boasting many greats Veeana is sired by the imposing Warmblood Stallion Rangeview Landstrom out of champion producing mare Warrawee Glory Bee. Her linage goes back to famous horses such as Arabian Park Banner, Banderol, Lorenz, Lander, Heini and King (imp).
