The Probynabad Stud Farm, Okara. The Probynabad Stud Farm (near present day Okara) was owned by Probyns Horse (Unit was renamed as 12^th Cavalry in 1903). After the regiment returned form the Second China War in 1860, Lt Col Probyn had setup a regimental stud near Okara which was subsequently named after him. After the Second China War, there was a dispute with the Army Pay Department because the regiment had accidentally been paid twice for their service in China. Pending the result of an inquiry, the extra money was put aside, but after two years no demand was made, the money was used to set up the farm. This farm enjoyed a long excellence in mounts and the first Arab stallion at the stud was Probyn’s own charger, Clear-the-Line. After Partition the farm was taken over by the Pakistan Army.
