*KS RUBIN was imported to the United States from Germany as a yearling. He is a twelve year old purebred Shagya stallion. *KS RUBIN's pedigree reads as a "who's who" of European Shagya Champions - he is a direct descendant of many generations of "Elite" or Champion Shagya stallions and mares.
*KS RUBIN's sire is the Elite stallion, PARIS. For many years, PARIS was a Chief Sire at Babolna, where he was known as GAZAL XIX. PARIS (GAZAL XIX) is the sire of numerous International level Endurance horses in France.

PARIS (GAZAL XIX) also stood at stud in Germany and the Netherlands. In the Netherlands he was used in warmblood breeding, producing the Shagya-Arabian sons Pegasus III and Tamias, as well as the Warmblood stallion, Pronto.
PARIS' sire is the Elite stallion BARTOK, and PARIS' dam is the Elite mare, PAMINA, who is sired by the Elite stallion, AMOR.
