Basil will also speak on Syrian horses. The Fantasia will be offered online via YouTube. Video clips will be posted on the Al Khamsa, Inc. YouTube channel.

A standardized introduction will be provided by Al Khamsa, with about 15 of these narrated by Joe Ferriss with historical and brilliant pedigree analysis. The opportunity for additional horses at two minute intervals with the standardized introduction will be viewable with Arabic music.
