His dam, *Naomi, was born in England of desert-bred Arabian horses, and imported to the United States by Huntington in 1888. She was noted as an outstanding field hunter. His sire, Nimr, was also a grandson of *Naomi, and hence Khaled was somewhat linebred. Nimr was also born in England and was imported by Huntington to the United States in 1893. Huntington also imported Khaled's paternal grandsire, the desertbred *Kismet, from England to the USA in 1891.
