This well bred stallion was sired by Sx Saladin, generally considered one of the best sons of the great Crabbet-bred *Serafix - and even thought by some to have been his best son. Sx Saladin's dam was the great broodmare Cobah, daughter of two Kellogg-bred parents, Pomona Ahmen and Faradina; the latter was sired by the great Farana.
Falconn's dam was daughter of the outstanding Raffon, and Falconn's 2nd dam was a daughter of the magnificent El Sirocco. Other parts of Falconn's pedigree carried other outstanding horses of their time.
Falconn lived up to his excellent pedigree. He was a well conformed horse of balance and substance. He had excellent bone, joints, and feet. He carried a high fountain tail, and his trot was good. He also had a good disposition. He was a horse made to ride and use, overlaid with plenty of very attractive Arabian type and breed character.
In his day Falconn was a frequent show winner and champion, shown by the young woman who was his owner.
Diablo Vista Arabians has his last two daughters, Starspangled Glory and Star of the Sea, sired after Falconn had not been used for breeding for a few years, and just before he became infertile.
