«Чёрный жеребец», известный как Чёрный или Шейтан, — главный герой серии бестселлеров Уолтера Фарли об арабском жеребце и его молодом владельце, Алеке Рамзи. Серия повествует об истории ценного жеребца шейха, который попадает в распоряжение Алекса в результате кораблекрушения. Более поздние книги серии раскрывают предысторию Чёрного. Шайтан (в различных транслитерациях) — это арабское слово, означающее «дьявол». Первая книга серии, опубликованная в 1941 году, называется «Чёрный жеребец». Последующие романы посвящены самому Чёрному и трём главным его потомкам: его первому жеребёнку, Сатане; его второму жеребёнку, Бонфайру; и его первой жеребёнке, Чёрной Лисёнке. Вместе с Чёрным, серия представляет второго жеребца, который считается единственным, равным ему по силе – Островного жеребца, Пламя. Это отдельная сюжетная линия, пока Пламя и Чёрный не встречаются в двух книгах – «Чёрный жеребец и Пламя» и «Чёрный жеребец бросает вызов». Однако упоминание о победе Пламени в международной гонке на Кубе и его таинственном исчезновении появляется в конце «Тайны Чёрного жеребца», что служит первым знакомством с этим соперником в более поздних книгах, где они встречаются. Первые две книги, а также заключительная книга серии, были экранизированы в фильмах «Чёрный жеребец» (1979), «Чёрный жеребец возвращается» (1983) и «Молодой Чёрный жеребец» (2003). Газета «Нью-Йорк Таймс» назвала «Чёрного жеребца» «самой известной вымышленной лошадью века».
The Black Stallion, known as the Black or Shêtân, is the title character from author Walter Farley's bestselling series about the Arab stallion and his young owner, Alec Ramsay. The series chronicles the story of a Sheikh's prized stallion after he comes into Alec's possession through a ship journey gone awry. Later books in the series furnish the Black's backstory. Shaytan (under various transliterations) is the Arabic word for "devil". The first book in the series, published in 1941, is titled The Black Stallion. The subsequent novels are about the Black himself and the stallion's three main offspring: his firstborn colt, Satan; his second colt, Bonfire; and his firstborn filly, Black Minx. Along with the Black, the series introduces a second stallion that is considered the Black's only equal The Island Stallion, Flame. This is a separate storyline until Flame and the Black meet in two books The Black Stallion and Flame, and The Black Stallion Challenged. However, news of Flame's win in an international race in Cuba, and his mysterious disappearance, are mentioned at the end of The Black Stallion Mystery, which serves as the first introduction of this rival for the later books in which they meet. The first two books, as well as the final book of the series, were adapted for the films The Black Stallion (1979), The Black Stallion Returns (1983), and The Young Black Stallion (2003). The Black Stallion was described as "the most famous fictional horse of the century" by The New York Times.

Оригинальная серия "Черный жеребец", перечисленная здесь, была написана Уолтером Фарли.

The original Black Stallion series listed here was written by Walter Farley. The Young Black Stallion, about the Black's early years, was written with Farley's son, Steven Farley, who continued The Young Black Stallion as a series for younger readers after the death of Walter Farley. Steven Farley subsequently has also written additional Black Stallion novels, which are not included here. The Black Stallion (1941) In the series' first book, teenaged Alec Ramsay, returning from India after visiting his missionary uncle, sees an untamed and apparently wild black stallion at an Arabian seaport. The black stallion is loaded onto the ship. A violent storm causes the vessel to sink. Alec and the Black escape and are stranded together on a desert island. Dependent on each other for survival, the boy and horse learn to trust and love each other as they establish an amazingly strong emotional bond. After their rescue, Alec befriends retired racehorse trainer Henry Dailey, who lives near Alec in Flushing, New York. Henry recognizes the Black's superior breeding, and he and Alec secretly begin training the Black to race. But without a documented pedigree, Alec and Henry can only compete the Black as a mystery horse in a match race between two champions: Cyclone and Sun Raider. The Black Stallion Returns (1945) Now famous for winning the match race, Alec discovers that two men are after the Black. One, an Arab sheikh, who claims he is the Black's rightful owner; while the other attempts to murder the beautiful steed. The sheikh proves he legally owns the Black and takes him back to Arabia, but Alec is determined to see his horse again. Following the pair to Arabia, Alec, along with Henry, encounters great evil and intrigue, as only a horse as spectacular as the Black could inspire. Son of the Black Stallion (1947) When Alec receives the Black Stallion's first offspring as a gift, he believes that his dreams have come true. Alec names the colt Satan, but a savage and wild nature make the horse dangerous and unpredictable. Still, Alec aided by Henry Dailey, is resolved to gain the fiery colt's trust, even if it means risking his own life. The Island Stallion (1948) This novel introduces the stallion, Flame. A boy, Steve Duncan, and his archaeologist friend, Phil "Pitch" Pitcher, spend two weeks on a desolate Caribbean island, called Azul (blue in Spanish) Island, where they discover an entrance to a hidden valley through tunnels built by Spanish Conquistadors. There they find a wild, flame colored stallion and his herd, descended from the Spaniards' horses. The Black Stallion and Satan (1949) After Alec Ramsay inherits the Black, he has an opportunity to discover which stallion—Black or his colt, Satan—is the fastest when Satan, Black, and other famous thoroughbreds, must race for their lives to escape a raging forest fire with only one witness to prove their speed. The Blood Bay Colt (1951) Veteran harness race driver Jimmy Creech, an aging driver and trainer who is reluctant to accept that Standardbred harness racing has moved from the county fairs to the big night time, moneymaking raceways, pins his comeback hopes on Bonfire, the Black Stallion's second colt. His dreams are threatened by ill health and by Tom's, his young apprentice jockey, inexperience. Jimmy hopes that the great Black Stallion has given his son the speed and will to win. The Island Stallion's Fury (1951) Pitch and Steve's secret island valley is discovered and invaded by a hard, vicious man (Tom Pitch's stepbrother) who sees Flame and his band as creatures to be conquered by force. The Black Stallion's Filly (1952) Henry Dailey buys the Black's first filly to train for the Kentucky Derby, but Black Minx, like her sire, has a mind of her own and challenges Henry and Alec to train her with methods they have never used before. The Black Stallion Revolts (1953) When his restless black stallion revolts against the routine and schedule of stable life, becoming a potential killer, a plane crash thwarts Alec's plans to give the Black free run in the desert, and bringing danger to both boy and horse. The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt (1954) Bonfire and Tom are injured in a racing accident, leading Alec Ramsay and Henry Dailey to try harness racing. They train the Black's second colt for the Hambletonian Stakes, harness racing's most prestigious race, equivalent to thoroughbred racing's Kentucky Derby. The Island Stallion Races (1955) Two aliens from another world enter the secret valley of Azul Island and offer Steve an opportunity for Flame to compete against the world's fastest race horses. The Black Stallion's Courage (1956) With Henry and Alec needing money to rebuild their destroyed, uninsured barn, the Black is brought out of retirement for a match race against two other champion racers, Eclipse and Casey. The Black Stallion Mystery (1957) When three yearling colts arrive in the USA that are carbon copies of the Black, Alec believes that his world famous black stallion's sire may still be alive. His quest brings him to an unidentified location a mountainous Shangri La for horse breeding held by Arabian sheikhs for centuries, along with Henry and the Black, into a neatly laid trap and a meeting with the Black's sire. The Horse Tamer (1958) Henry Dailey, the Black Stallion's trainer, tells young Alec Ramsay about his brother, horse tamer Bill Dailey, who rehabilitated many vicious and badly trained horses and worked to expose one unscrupulous horseman's tactics. The Black Stallion and Flame (1960) A plane crash strands the Black on a Caribbean island with Farley's other legendary stallion Flame. Their struggle for power becomes a fight for survival when the two horses band together to fight a deadly vampire bat. Man o' War (1962) A fictionalized biography of the American race horse who won twenty of twenty one races, told by a stable boy who grew up with the great horse. The Black Stallion Challenged (1964) Alec, racing the Black in Florida over the winter, receives a letter from Steve Duncan, who challenges his horse, Flame against Alec's champion steed. Steve and Alec have never met, but the two young men are unaware that their stallions have already met under hostile terms, and the horses' hate for each other turns into focused rivalry as the two race to see who is the greater stallion. The Black Stallion's Ghost (1969) A peaceful Florida vacation is transformed into a nightmare when Alec Ramsay and the Black stumble upon a mysterious horseman and his grey mare, deep in the Everglades. The Black Stallion and the Girl (1971) Hopeful Farm's success has greatly increased Alec and Henry's workload. After firing an employee for striking a yearling, Alec takes out an advertisement in a racing magazine. When Pam Athena applies for the job, Alec has a hard time persuading his partners to retain her as a trainer and even harder time convincing himself to let her ride the Black Stallion when Alec is suspended as a jockey. The Black Stallion Legend (1983) Distraught after receiving terrible news, Alec and the Black flee to the desert. There, the black stallion is called upon to save an Indian tribe during a disaster, in order to fulfill an ancient prophecy.

The original Black Stallion series listed here was written by Walter Farley. The Young Black Stallion, about the Black's early years, was written with Farley's son, Steven Farley, who continued The Young Black Stallion as a series for younger readers after the death of Walter Farley. Steven Farley subsequently has also written additional Black Stallion novels, which are not included here. The Black Stallion (1941) In the series' first book, teenaged Alec Ramsay, returning from India after visiting his missionary uncle, sees an untamed and apparently wild black stallion at an Arabian seaport. The black stallion is loaded onto the ship. A violent storm causes the vessel to sink. Alec and the Black escape and are stranded together on a desert island. Dependent on each other for survival, the boy and horse learn to trust and love each other as they establish an amazingly strong emotional bond. After their rescue, Alec befriends retired racehorse trainer Henry Dailey, who lives near Alec in Flushing, New York. Henry recognizes the Black's superior breeding, and he and Alec secretly begin training the Black to race. But without a documented pedigree, Alec and Henry can only compete the Black as a mystery horse in a match race between two champions: Cyclone and Sun Raider. The Black Stallion Returns (1945) Now famous for winning the match race, Alec discovers that two men are after the Black. One, an Arab sheikh, who claims he is the Black's rightful owner; while the other attempts to murder the beautiful steed. The sheikh proves he legally owns the Black and takes him back to Arabia, but Alec is determined to see his horse again. Following the pair to Arabia, Alec, along with Henry, encounters great evil and intrigue, as only a horse as spectacular as the Black could inspire. Son of the Black Stallion (1947) When Alec receives the Black Stallion's first offspring as a gift, he believes that his dreams have come true. Alec names the colt Satan, but a savage and wild nature make the horse dangerous and unpredictable. Still, Alec aided by Henry Dailey, is resolved to gain the fiery colt's trust, even if it means risking his own life. The Island Stallion (1948) This novel introduces the stallion, Flame. A boy, Steve Duncan, and his archaeologist friend, Phil "Pitch" Pitcher, spend two weeks on a desolate Caribbean island, called Azul (blue in Spanish) Island, where they discover an entrance to a hidden valley through tunnels built by Spanish Conquistadors. There they find a wild, flame colored stallion and his herd, descended from the Spaniards' horses. The Black Stallion and Satan (1949) After Alec Ramsay inherits the Black, he has an opportunity to discover which stallion—Black or his colt, Satan—is the fastest when Satan, Black, and other famous thoroughbreds, must race for their lives to escape a raging forest fire with only one witness to prove their speed. The Blood Bay Colt (1951) Veteran harness race driver Jimmy Creech, an aging driver and trainer who is reluctant to accept that Standardbred harness racing has moved from the county fairs to the big night time, moneymaking raceways, pins his comeback hopes on Bonfire, the Black Stallion's second colt. His dreams are threatened by ill health and by Tom's, his young apprentice jockey, inexperience. Jimmy hopes that the great Black Stallion has given his son the speed and will to win. The Island Stallion's Fury (1951) Pitch and Steve's secret island valley is discovered and invaded by a hard, vicious man (Tom Pitch's stepbrother) who sees Flame and his band as creatures to be conquered by force. The Black Stallion's Filly (1952) Henry Dailey buys the Black's first filly to train for the Kentucky Derby, but Black Minx, like her sire, has a mind of her own and challenges Henry and Alec to train her with methods they have never used before. The Black Stallion Revolts (1953) When his restless black stallion revolts against the routine and schedule of stable life, becoming a potential killer, a plane crash thwarts Alec's plans to give the Black free run in the desert, and bringing danger to both boy and horse. The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt (1954) Bonfire and Tom are injured in a racing accident, leading Alec Ramsay and Henry Dailey to try harness racing. They train the Black's second colt for the Hambletonian Stakes, harness racing's most prestigious race, equivalent to thoroughbred racing's Kentucky Derby.

The Black Stallion's Courage (1956) With Henry and Alec needing money to rebuild their destroyed, uninsured barn, the Black is brought out of retirement for a match race against two other champion racers, Eclipse and Casey. The Black Stallion Mystery (1957) When three yearling colts arrive in the USA that are carbon copies of the Black, Alec believes that his world famous black stallion's sire may still be alive. His quest brings him to an unidentified location a mountainous Shangri La for horse breeding held by Arabian sheikhs for centuries, along with Henry and the Black, into a neatly laid trap and a meeting with the Black's sire. The Horse Tamer (1958) Henry Dailey, the Black Stallion's trainer, tells young Alec Ramsay about his brother, horse tamer Bill Dailey, who rehabilitated many vicious and badly trained horses and worked to expose one unscrupulous horseman's tactics.

Their struggle for power becomes a fight for survival when the two horses band together to fight a deadly vampire bat.

The Black Stallion's Ghost (1969) A peaceful Florida vacation is transformed into a nightmare when Alec Ramsay and the Black stumble upon a mysterious horseman and his grey mare, deep in the Everglades.

There, the black stallion is called upon to save an Indian tribe during a disaster, in order to fulfill an ancient prophecy.

The original Black Stallion series listed here was written by Walter Farley. The Young Black Stallion, about the Black's early years, was written with Farley's son, Steven Farley, who continued The Young Black Stallion as a series for younger readers after the death of Walter Farley. Steven Farley subsequently has also written additional Black Stallion novels, which are not included here. The Black Stallion (1941) In the series' first book, teenaged Alec Ramsay, returning from India after visiting his missionary uncle, sees an untamed and apparently wild black stallion at an Arabian seaport. The black stallion is loaded onto the ship. A violent storm causes the vessel to sink. Alec and the Black escape and are stranded together on a desert island. Dependent on each other for survival, the boy and horse learn to trust and love each other as they establish an amazingly strong emotional bond. After their rescue, Alec befriends retired racehorse trainer Henry Dailey, who lives near Alec in Flushing, New York. Henry recognizes the Black's superior breeding, and he and Alec secretly begin training the Black to race. But without a documented pedigree, Alec and Henry can only compete the Black as a mystery horse in a match race between two champions: Cyclone and Sun Raider. The Black Stallion Returns (1945) Now famous for winning the match race, Alec discovers that two men are after the Black. One, an Arab sheikh, who claims he is the Black's rightful owner; while the other attempts to murder the beautiful steed. The sheikh proves he legally owns the Black and takes him back to Arabia, but Alec is determined to see his horse again. Following the pair to Arabia, Alec, along with Henry, encounters great evil and intrigue, as only a horse as spectacular as the Black could inspire. Son of the Black Stallion (1947) When Alec receives the Black Stallion's first offspring as a gift, he believes that his dreams have come true. Alec names the colt Satan, but a savage and wild nature make the horse dangerous and unpredictable. Still, Alec aided by Henry Dailey, is resolved to gain the fiery colt's trust, even if it means risking his own life. The Island Stallion (1948) This novel introduces the stallion, Flame. A boy, Steve Duncan, and his archaeologist friend, Phil "Pitch" Pitcher, spend two weeks on a desolate Caribbean island, called Azul (blue in Spanish) Island, where they discover an entrance to a hidden valley through tunnels built by Spanish Conquistadors. There they find a wild, flame colored stallion and his herd, descended from the Spaniards' horses. The Black Stallion and Satan (1949) After Alec Ramsay inherits the Black, he has an opportunity to discover which stallion—Black or his colt, Satan—is the fastest when Satan, Black, and other famous thoroughbreds, must race for their lives to escape a raging forest fire with only one witness to prove their speed. The Blood Bay Colt (1951) Veteran harness race driver Jimmy Creech, an aging driver and trainer who is reluctant to accept that Standardbred harness racing has moved from the county fairs to the big night time, moneymaking raceways, pins his comeback hopes on Bonfire, the Black Stallion's second colt. His dreams are threatened by ill health and by Tom's, his young apprentice jockey, inexperience. Jimmy hopes that the great Black Stallion has given his son the speed and will to win. The Island Stallion's Fury (1951) Pitch and Steve's secret island valley is discovered and invaded by a hard, vicious man (Tom Pitch's stepbrother) who sees Flame and his band as creatures to be conquered by force. The Black Stallion's Filly (1952) Henry Dailey buys the Black's first filly to train for the Kentucky Derby, but Black Minx, like her sire, has a mind of her own and challenges Henry and Alec to train her with methods they have never used before.

The original Black Stallion series listed here was written by Walter Farley. The Young Black Stallion, about the Black's early years, was written with Farley's son, Steven Farley, who continued The Young Black Stallion as a series for younger readers after the death of Walter Farley. Steven Farley subsequently has also written additional Black Stallion novels, which are not included here. The Black Stallion (1941) In the series' first book, teenaged Alec Ramsay, returning from India after visiting his missionary uncle, sees an untamed and apparently wild black stallion at an Arabian seaport. The black stallion is loaded onto the ship. A violent storm causes the vessel to sink. Alec and the Black escape and are stranded together on a desert island. Dependent on each other for survival, the boy and horse learn to trust and love each other as they establish an amazingly strong emotional bond. After their rescue, Alec befriends retired racehorse trainer Henry Dailey, who lives near Alec in Flushing, New York. Henry recognizes the Black's superior breeding, and he and Alec secretly begin training the Black to race. But without a documented pedigree, Alec and Henry can only compete the Black as a mystery horse in a match race between two champions: Cyclone and Sun Raider. The Black Stallion Returns (1945) Now famous for winning the match race, Alec discovers that two men are after the Black. One, an Arab sheikh, who claims he is the Black's rightful owner; while the other attempts to murder the beautiful steed. The sheikh proves he legally owns the Black and takes him back to Arabia, but Alec is determined to see his horse again. Following the pair to Arabia, Alec, along with Henry, encounters great evil and intrigue, as only a horse as spectacular as the Black could inspire. Son of the Black Stallion (1947) When Alec receives the Black Stallion's first offspring as a gift, he believes that his dreams have come true.

There they find a wild, flame colored stallion and his herd, descended from the Spaniards' horses. The Black Stallion and Satan (1949) After Alec Ramsay inherits the Black, he has an opportunity to discover which stallion—Black or his colt, Satan—is the fastest when Satan, Black, and other famous thoroughbreds, must race for their lives to escape a raging forest fire with only one witness to prove their speed.

Персонажи
Александр "Алек" Рамзи, рыжеволосый юноша, является главным героем книг Уолтера Фарли. Алек страстно любит лошадей и имеет особую связь со своим жеребцом, Черным, которую никто не может объяснить или понять, даже сам Алек. Генри Дейли – отставной тренер скаковых лошадей и близкий друг Алекса. Забытая легенда жокеев, карьера Генри возрождается после объединения с Алеком для тренировки Черного. Позже Генри тренирует многих скаковых лошадей Хоупфул Фарм. Чарльз Воленс – владелец "Солнечного Рейдера", сопровождает Алекса и Генри в их первой поездке в Аравию. Тони – итальянский иммигрант, владелец упряжной лошади Наполеона, работающий продавцом овощей на небольших улицах Нью-Йорка. И Тони, и Наполеон обретают тесную связь с Черным, и крепкая дружба сохраняется между Тони, Алеком и Генри на протяжении всей серии. Наполеон становится верным спутником Черного. Мистер и миссис Рамзи – поддерживающие родители Алекса Рамзи. Мистер Рамзи играет более заметную роль в книгах, чем его жена, позже помогая в управлении делами Хоупфул Фарм. Он описан как высокий и статный. Миссис Рамзи описывается как полноватая и добрая. В экранизации мистер Рамзи находится на обреченном корабле с Алеком и погибает. Миссис Рамзи стройнее и обладает более резким характером, чем ее книжный прототип. Стив Дункан – юноша, обнаруживший красного жеребца по имени Флейм на острове, а затем тренировавший и участвовавший с ним в гонке. Он и Алек встречаются в "Черном жеребце: Вызов", но их дружба сложна из-за очевидной конкуренции между ними и ревности Стива к Алеку. Стив – слегка несчастный, легко раздражающийся человек, с которым Алек пытается подружиться, но не может преодолеть его странный характер. Фил "Пич" Питчер – давний друг Стива, археолог-любитель. Он во многом схож с Генри, но Алек описывает его как более уставшего и менее счастливого. Абу Джа' Куб бен Исхак – шейх, и оригинальный владелец и заводчик Шетана (Черного). Абу погиб, когда Черный сбросил его во время тренировки, скончавшись от полученных травм. Табари – красивая дочь шейха Исхака, чья дружба с Алеком сложна и постоянно меняется. Табари Исхак прислала Алеку письмо, в котором описала гибель Абу и завещание ее отца передать Шетана (Черного) Алеку. Он потрясен, прочитав: "Если бы не это, мы бы его уничтожили". У нее есть чистокровный конь породы неджди по имени Джохар. Абд аль Рахман – молодой шейх из королевства, расположенного недалеко от владений Абу. Позже он женится на Табари и предоставляет ей большую независимость, несмотря на общепринятые нормы и ожидания того времени. Ибн аль-Хальдун – толстый, морщинистый однорукий мужчина, путешествующий на том же самолете, что и Алек, Генри и Воленс в их первой поездке в Аравию. Алекса подозревает, что он хочет избавиться от Черного. Радж – брат Абд аль Рахмана и друг Алекса Рамзи, живущий в Аравии. Пэм Афина – девушка, проявившая себя как отличный жокей и ценный работник Хоупфул Фарм, и смягчившая суровый характер Алекса. Она была связана с Алеком романтическими отношениями до своей гибели в автокатастрофе. Уолтер Фарли создал этот персонаж на основе своей дочери и написал книгу "Легенда о Черном жеребце", посвященную ее памяти, после ее смерти. Джо Руссо – мальчик, который помог Алеку и Черному.
Alexander "Alec" Ramsay the red headed young man is the main character in Walter Farley's books. Alec has a passion for horses and has a close bond with his stallion, the Black, that no one can explain or understand, even Alec himself. Henry Dailey a retired race horse trainer and close friend to Alec. A forgotten jockey legend, Henry's career is revived after teaming with Alec to train the Black. Henry later trains many of Hopeful Farm's racehorses. Charles Volence owner of Sun Raider, and accompanies Alec and Henry on their first trip to Arabia. Tony an Italian immigrant who owns the carthorse gelding, Napoleon, and works as a vegetable salesman in New York City's smaller streets. Both Tony and Napoleon forge a close bond with the Black and a close friendship remains between Tony, Alec, and Henry throughout the series. Napoleon becomes the Black's constant companion. Mr. and Mrs. Ramsay Alec Ramsay's supportive parents. Mr. Ramsay has a more prominent role in the books than his wife, later helping to run Hopeful Farm's business affairs. He is described as tall and good featured. Mrs. Ramsay is described as plump and kind. In the film adaption, Mr. Ramsay is on the doomed ship with Alec, but is drowned. Mrs. Ramsay is slender and has a slightly edgier personality than her book counterpart. Steve Duncan the young man who discovers the red stallion, Flame on an island and later trains and races him in a match race. He and Alec meet in The Black Stallion Challenged, but his friendship with Alec is complex, due to an obvious competition between the two, and Steve's jealousy towards Alec. Steve is a slightly unhappy, easily annoyed character who Alec strives to befriend but is unable to get past Steve's rather strange personality. Phil "Pitch" Pitcher Steve's long time friend, an amateur archaeologist. He is comparable to Henry in several ways, but Alec describes him as looking more tired and less happy. Abu Ja' Kub ben Ishak a Sheikh, and Shêtân's (the Black) original owner and breeder. Abu was killed when the Black threw him during a training workout, dying from his injuries. Tabari Sheikh Ishak's beautiful daughter, whose friendship with Alec is complicated and ever changing. Tabari Ishak sent Alec a letter describing how Abu had perished and that her father had willed Shêtân (the Black) to Alec. He is shocked to read, "but for that, we would have destroyed him". She owns her purebred Nejdi horse, Jôhar. Abd al Rahman a younger Sheikh from a kingdom near Abu's. He later marries Tabari and allows her a great deal of independence despite the attitudes and expectations of the time. Ibn al Khaldun a fat, wrinkled, one armed man who travels on the same plane as Alec, Henry, and Volence on their first trip to Arabia. Alec is suspicious of him wanting to do away with the Black. Raj brother of Abd al Rahman, and friend of Alec Ramsay who lives in Arabia. Pam Athena a girl who proved to be an excellent jockey and good worker to Hopeful Farm, and loosened the hardened jockey Alec. She was romantically involved with Alec up until her death in a car accident. Walter Farley based the character on his own daughter and wrote the book that features Pam's death, The Black Stallion Legend, in grief of his daughter's death. Joe Russo a boy who helped Alec and the Black.

Часто ласково называемый "Нэппи", он играет важную роль в первых книгах.

Генри, обучивший многих лошадей, но никогда не владевший ими, покупает ее на аукционе и преодолевает ее особенности, даже делая ей искусственный хвост, чтобы заменить укороченный, потерянный в результате несчастного случая, и повысить ее уверенность. Генри тренирует ее как скаковую лошадь, и с Алеком в седле они выигрывают Кентукки Дерби. Она немного ленива и не обладает страстью к скачкам, а также проявляет одержимость соперником-жеребцом по имени Зимнее Время, что в конечном итоге приводит к ее уходу на пенсию. Уолтер Фарли считал, что первой дочери Черного нужно идеальное имя, поэтому он обратился к своим читателям с призом – жеребенком, если их имя для первой дочери Черного будет выбрано в конкурсе. Сагр, принадлежащий Абд аль Рахману, – гигантский каштановый жеребец из Аравии, похожий на Шетана. Он большой, сильный и смелый, достойный соперник Черного. Джохар – чистокровная арабская кобыла Неджди, принадлежащая Табари, серая с белоснежной шерстью. Она становится матерью первого жеребенка Черного, Сатаны. Пламя – каштановый жеребец, найденный Стивом Дунканом на острове Азул. Пламя сильно напоминает араба, хотя и намного крупнее Черного. Он равен Черному Жеребцу в гонке. Зимнее Время – небольшой, быстрый, бурый жеребец, соперник Черной Минкс. Он выходит на пенсию после травмы на трассе и становится партнером Черной Минкс. Эклипс – темно-коричневый жеребенок с белым пятном на лбу, изначально проигравший Черной Минкс, но вскоре превратившийся в мощного соперника, который бросает вызов более старым и опытным лошадям и становится почти равным славе и скорости Черного. Кейси – опытный, победивший каштановый конь, чья скорость и умелый жокей испытывают Черного и Алека в трехсторонней гонке, в которой участвует Эклипс. Солнечный Рейдер и Циклон – первые два чемпионских коня, с которыми Черный соревнуется и которых в итоге побеждает в гонке, названной "гонкой века". Призрак – красивая светло-серая кобыла, звезда либерти-драссажа, представленная в "Призраке Черного Жеребца". Жуткая история достигает кульминации, когда Алек одержим покупкой этой кобылы и ее спариванием с Черным. Ее жеребенок от Черного никогда не появляется в книгах, написанных Уолтером Фарли, но его сын Стивен Фарли изобретает жеребенка как скакового коня по имени Черная Буря. Черный Перец – дочь Черной Минкс, предположительно от Зимнего Времени. Черный Песок – сын Сатаны, перспективный молодой жеребенок и любимец Пэм Афины, который должен преодолеть страхи, связанные с жестоким обращением со стороны предыдущего владельца.
Ziyadah sire of the Black and known as "Firetail". He is a golden chestnut stallion who is in The Black Stallion's Mystery. The Black Stallion/Shêtân the black Arabian crossbred stallion who is the main character of the Black Stallion series. He is strong, fast, temperamental, and shares a strong bond with Alec. He was originally bred in Arabia, the property of Abu Ja' Kub ben Ishak, but ultimately was captured or stolen, placed on a ship to a destination unknown, where he first encounters Alec. After the two are shipwrecked and then rescued, he is taken to America by Alec, and becomes a horse to reckon with out on the racetrack. Napoleon a mature, gentle gelding belonging to Tony, a vegetable seller. Often fondly called "Nappy", he plays a larger role in the first several books. Napoleon is the Black's stable mate and close pal, but he and Satan were not on good terms in the beginning, due to Satan's original savage nature. Napoleon pulls Tony's vegetable cart through the smaller areas of New York, though he eventually is retired and becomes the Black's full time companion. Satan the Black's first colt, all black with a white diamond on his forehead. He is at first a dangerous, brutal colt, and nearly kills Alec. Henry eventually tames Satan, turning him into a racing legend. Ultimately Satan and Henry develop a close bond. Bonfire the Black Stallion's second colt in the books The Blood Bay Colt and The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt. He competes in the famed Hambletonian race. Black Minx the Black's first filly is all black and has issues from poor handling and a sensitive temperament. Purchased at an auction by Henry, who has trained many horses but not actually owned one, he overcomes her quirks, even fashioning her a false tail to replace her docked one, lost in an accident, to boost her confidence. Henry trains her as a racehorse and with Alec in the saddle, they go on to win the Kentucky Derby. She is slightly lazy and lacks the drive for racing, and also develops what appears to be an obsession with a rival colt, Wintertime, which ultimately leads to her retirement. Walter Farley felt that the Black's first daughter needed the perfect name, and so he turned to his readers with the prize of a colt if their name for the Black's first daughter was selected in a contest. Sagr owned by Abd al Rhaman, Sagr is a giant chestnut stallion also from Arabia, with similar features as Shêtân. He is big, strong, and bold. He is a worthy rival to The Black. Jôhar a Nejdi purebred Arabian mare owned by Tabari, a gray with a pure white coat. She becomes the dam of The Black's first foal, Satan. Flame the chestnut stallion found on Azul Island by Steve Duncan. Flame strongly resembles an Arabian, though much larger similar to The Black. He equals the Black Stallion in a match race. Wintertime a small, quick, blood bay stallion, a rival to Black Minx. He is retired after an injury on the track, and becomes Black Minx's mate. Eclipse a dark brown colt with a white blaze, initially beaten by Black Minx, who soon matures into a powerful contender who takes on older, more experienced horses and becomes almost an equal to the Black's fame and speed. Casey an experienced, winning chestnut horse whose speed and skilled jockey tests the Black and Alec in a three way race that includes Eclipse. Sun Raider and Cyclone the first two champion horses that the Black competes against and ultimately beats in a match race billed as "the race of the century". The Ghost a beautiful light grey mare, a liberty dressage superstar, featured in The Black Stallion's Ghost. The eerie tale culminates when Alec is obsessed to purchase this mare and breed her to The Black. Her foal with the Black is never seen in the books that are written by Walter Farley, but his son Steven Farley invents the foal as a steeplechaser race horse named Black Storm. Black Pepper daughter of Black Minx, presumably sired by Wintertime. Black Sand son of Satan, a promising young colt and favorite of Pam Athena, who must overcome fears linked to abuse by a previous owner.
