*Publication Policy regarding Group Designations :

SOFI defines “group designations” as categorizations qualified by official authorities (legal entities) with specific parameters of inclusion. In accordance with the SOFI By-Laws, SOFI recognizes the following group/sub-group designations for SO horses: Sheykh Obeyd (SO), Al Khamsa (AK) and Straight Egyptian (SE).

Only SOFI recognized group designations will be included in SOFI published and sponsored materials (ads, articles, promotions, etc.) SOFI policy does encourage the use of bloodline group references, such as the names of particular breeders and/or horses.
