Bandos had a worldwide impact on Arabian horse breeding. He was the only Negatiw offspring out of Bandola (she was known as the Queen of Poland). In 1982 he was imported to the US by Ventura Farms, California. At Ventura he had a daily schedule, strictly adhered to; first turned out in the morning, then a trail ride over Ventura hills, a bath, and then to the covering shed up to three times a day, all his mares were bred naturally there.
Bandos died in September 1987.
