Kir Sakar was born in 1936 and graded Elite in 1949. He is by 16 Algir (Ag Ishan) and
8 Aiden (line unknown). Judging by his name, which means "Pale Grey", he was probably a grey on buckskin. He was almost certainly also sabino. Kir Sakar became a line stallion on the basis of the evaluation of his male descendants, four of which - Kelam, Edenli, Goklen and Karader - are considered by MAAK to be "improvers" of the breed. His best son was Keimir. Nevertheless, Kir Sakar is seen in pedigrees mostly as a broodmare sire, his daughters Kagiz, Karali, Keskelti, Keshte and Kachkyr are seen very frequently in Akhal-Teke pedigrees. The best traits of the line are considered to be a good croup, good size, substance and bone, and exceptionally smooth gaits. Their racing speed is said to be "passable" and in type many are considered fairly plain.
Today line Kir Sakar takes nearly 9% of the breed.
