Bred by Van Vleet Arabian Stud in CO, she was a broodmare for Hyannis Arabians (Nebraska Sandhills). Amazingly, she produced the winners of 8 of the first 23 Tevis Cup Rides. Her son, the legendary Witezarif, won 6 Tevis Cups, and her son El Karbaj won 2 Tevis Cups. (El Karbaj also won 2 Haggin Cups as the horse in the top ten finishers in the best condition after the Tevis Ride.). Razifa's son Razlind was 2nd behind Bezatal in the 1965 Tevis & 2nd behind Pancho in the 1966 Tevis. Thus, it could be said that, but for Bezatal and Pancho, Razifa would have been the dam of the winners of 10 of the first 23 Tevis Cup Rides. In addition to all of that, her son Law Thunder was the 1978 AERC National Champion. Undoubtedly the greatest broodmare of the Tevis era.
