Bask
Bask, (1956–1979) bred at the Albigowa State Stud in Poland and foaled in 1956, was a bay Arabian stallion who was imported into the United States in 1963 by Dr. Eugene LaCroix of Lasma Arabians and became a major sire of significance in the Arabian breed. ==Ancestry and early history==
Bask's sire was Witraz, by the famed Ofir, who also sired Witez II. His dam was Balalajka, a daughter of Amurath-Sahib,〔Carpenter ''Legends'' pp. 14–29〕 deemed one of Poland's finest broodmares.〔 He was sent to the race track, as it was typical in the time for horses to be sent to race as three-year-olds in order to determine the horse's athletic ability and soundness.〔( "Arabian Horse – Bloodlines – Polish Arabians" Arabian Horse Association. Web page accessed December 10, 2010 )〕 In 1961, Albigowa ceased breeding Arabians,〔 so after his horse racing career, Bask was sent to the Janow Podlaski stud. Bask was a member of a "family" of considerable significance. All but one of Balalajka's progeny were by Witraz, and hence full siblings to Bask.〔(Progeny of Balalajka )〕 His full sister Arfa was the dam of Argos, who was an important sire in Great Britain for Patricia Lindsay.〔Archer ''The Arabian Horse'' p. 44〕 His full sister Bandola was a mare of significance known as "the Queen of Poland", and was the dam of Bandos, by Negatiw.〔〔(Pedigree of Bandos )〕 Bask's 3/4 sister Bachantka (by Wielki Szlem) had been imported to the United States in 1961 by Varian Arabians, where she was a Top Ten champion and major foundation mare for the Varian program. Bask's name was chosen by Roman Pankiewicz,〔(Luft, Monika. "There's no recipe for breeding" (Interview with Roman Pankiewicz). Polskiearaby.com. October 22,2010. Web site accessed December 10.2010 )〕 who was deputy manager of Albigowa at the time.〔("History of the Stud in Years 1944–1956" Stud Farm Albigowa. Web site accessed December 10, 2010 )〕 Pankiewicz stated, "I always tried to give horses short, nice names, easy to translate – because their export had already begun in those times. And Bask (Polish ) is a courageous inhabitant of the Basque Country in Spain...the Basques are hard-working people. And so the horse became Bask. That name suited him like no other."〔
