May 1986 Arabian Horse World:
"Sultann was bred at the EAO and imported to the U.S. in 1975 at the age of 14. He is by Sameh, the sire of 1971 U.S. National Champion Mare Serenity Sonbolan (x Bint Om El Saad), and out of Lubna, a daughter of Moniet El Nefous. "Horses of the Sameh/*Sultann sire line are among the most athletic of Egyptian-bred horses", says Lee Romney, owner of Somerset Farms, and it was for this reason Somerset purchased *Sultann from Don Ford's Lancer Arabians – he is used to enhance athletic ability, including racing potential, in Sonerset's breeding program.' *Sultann is the sire of *Asadd (x Amani) and *Sakr (x Enayat), two of the most versatile Egyptian-bred Arabians. *Asad was named 1975 U.S National Champion Stallion 1977 and 1978 U.S. Top Ten English pleasure, and 1979 U.S. National Champion English Pleasure. *Sakr has 13 U.S. National titles – four Championships in Native Costume, three Reserve Championships and five Top Tens in Park, and one Top Ten in Stallion Halter – and was also named 1978 Canadian National Champion Park and Top Ten Native Costume. *Sultann's daughters are also talented - *Masria (x Kawmia) is a Legion of Merit winner, and *Manzoura (x Nazeera) was named 1976 U.S. National Champion in Side Saddle and Reserve Champion in Native Costume. *Sultann has sired 46 registered foals (through Volume 50 of the Stud Book) in the U.S., and eight imports. Somerset is breeding him only to straight Egyptian mares because of his age (he is 25), and has used him on daughters of Ansata Shah Zaman, The Egyptian Prince, and *Khofo."
