On a document issued by the R.A.S. it gives *Exochorda's sire as 'Aiglon, Sakaloui Gidrani, imported by Ahmed Ibish, winner of 12 races' and her dam as 'Leila, Arab mare imported from Arabia by Capt. W.R. Owens in 1920.' In correspondence regarding transfer of ownership from Capt. R.
*Exochorda arrived at the Lodwick farm and on April 20, 1939 foaled Sirecho.
Some question whether *Exochorda is actually Asil and have claimed that a letter exists proving she isn't, although the letter or its exact contents has never been made public.
The sire of "LEILA (II)" ("Exochorda" or "Marquita") was a famous stallion that later (among SYRIAN- LEBANESE and EGYPTIANS) became known as Aiglon (L'Aiglon), a Dahman--Najib of the 'Ajman.
Exochorda's dam was LEILA (I), a Saqlawiyah-Jidraniyah Ibn Sudan of the Ruala and "Leila (I)" was imported to Egypt through the Agheyl (see under 'Uqayl) Muhammad Ibn Marzuqi.
I find it unfortunate that *Exochorda was singled out regarding what is not known about her breeder or circumstances because frankly, any researcher sooner or later runs into situations like this on a number of horses.
