Arinya Park Venus begins a lovely
new life in Tasmania

your chance to acquire a superb endurance mount

Arinya Park Klas'saar has been pursuing an endurance career under the capable hands of Tracy-Lee Feltrin .

Klas'saar has completed 2 x 40 km training rides, 3 x 80 km Novice qualifying rides which he placed 2nd in the lightweight division at Gundagai Ride which is one of the toughest on the calendar.

He was 4th at his first open 80 km ride in 4hrs 45mins with a fantastic heart recovery, Kla'saar has a 100% completion rate.

Tracy says Klas'saar has been a very competitive horse galloping the last 5 kms in a race to stay in front and he always recovers so well and vets well.

His most current achievements are

  • 1st Lightweight Ridden by Tracy-lee Feltrin Nagambie 80km Feb 2012
  • 1st Lightweight Ridden by Tracy-Lee Feltrin Kilmore 90 kms March 2012
  • 2nd Youth Section ridden by Nicole Whitehead Cedar Ridge FEI 1 Star 80 kms. Klas'saar also took out best conditioned horse
AP Kla'saar
Klas'saar is offered for sale, He has a lovely temperament and would be an excellent mount for a junior or middle-weight rider. Good home only. Enquires can be directed to Tracy 0438 669 020.

This bay gelding Riverlee Ashira (at right), was also bought by Tracey and is being trained for endurance. He is sired by Arinya Park Klass and out of Arinya Park Esquisite, so all Arinya breeding.

He has competed in a 40km training ride, completed in a 80km Novice ride and has completed both rides very well with excellent heart rates.

Tracey-Lee has commented on the great temperaments both boys have – a testament to their sire Arinya Park Klass, I feel.

Elite and her colt Have happily settled at their new home

Congratulations to Chrissy Smith on her purchase of the beautiful mare Arinya Park Elite with her very impressive colt foal at foot by our new junior stallion Mustang's Magnet. We wish Chrissy many years of happiness with this special couple. We at Arinya Park are very happy to know that Elite and her son have found a loving and caring home.
I received this delightful letter from the mare and foal's happy new owner, Chrissy:
Elite and her foal


Hi Laureen,

A big thanks comes your way after the successful purchase of your stunning mare Arinya Park Elite and her equally stunning colt son dubbed Elliott for now after his mum. Oh I love her, she made herself right at home, a stunning no fuss mare beautifully bred and handled...these two open the door to my future. I recommend that anybody seeking quality Arabians should look you up, Laureen. Your advice has been priceless. I clicked with this mare the first day and caught bubs the 2nd it was so easy. Thank you again, I'm always interested in what you have for sale. I know I'll get what I pay for and be very satisfied.

Will keep you updated on progress of both. She's a special girl!!

Warm regards, Chrissy (& Soren can't wait to have his way,
he just stares at her all day)

... and Klassified has travelled north to his new home in Queensland

Meridy Kadel, the new owner of the lovely yearling gelding Klassified (Arinya Park Klass x Jirrima Time for Glory) made the big journey from Yuleba in Queensland with float in tow to personally transport him home (a very brave girl in my opinion).

Meridy stayed with us for a few days so she could become familiar with her new boy and get to know his likes and dislikes, it also gave us a chance to get to know each other which was lovely. Meridy felt it would be a good bonding session between her and Klassified to experience the 1600 km return trip and from all accounts this proved to be true. Klassified has settled in very well to his new surrounds and has quickly become one of the family.

I wish Meridy all the best with this special boy and may they have many happy years together.

Klassified


a beautiful Klass colt in time for christmas

Belinda O'Brien from White Hills' Shahanshah Leila Bin Ilustraa (Lilly) has had a gorgeous chestnut colt by Arinya Park Klass, This boy is an impressive young fellow with lots of presence and ground covering movement. He was born on Christmas day after what I believe to be rather a lengthy labour, luckily with a happy outcome.

I wish Belinda all the best in the future with this lovely boy.

Arinya Park welcomes its newest mare

It is with great excitement that we welcome the very beautiful Sharinga Sonnet to join our breeding program and would like to thank Judy Richie for entrusting this special mare to us. I had for many years admired Sonnet who as many may remember was a multi Supreme Champion in her day winning Supreme Exhibit at the Classic as a junior and senior mare under international judges. So, to have her grace our paddocks has been a dream come true.

Sonnet has a high percentage of Egyptian bloodlines in her pedigree being by PVA Sonbali and will be bred to our senior stallion AP Klass this season.

  Khan-I-Noor

Lucky Arinya Park Khan I Noor now shares AP Klassical's owner

After many months of coming to the farm for the saddle training of her young gelding AP Klassical, and with the job now successfully completed Louise Doughty felt ready to take on another challenge.

She had always admired AP Khan-I-Noor from the day he was born and it seemed logical that he was to be her next exciting challenge. So, with some discussion of the possibility of her acquiring him, the deal was done and he is now proudly owned by Louise. I wish her luck as he certainly is an independent boy with plenty of attitude.

These fortunate boys could not have a kinder or more caring owner.



Klassical and Louise

KLASSICAL Update - Loving his new life

Arinya Park Klassical has now started a saddle career with new owner Louise Doughty of Mickleham, Victoria.

Klassical (Spunky as Louise calls him) and Louise have formed a beautiful bond and enjoy quiet rides in the countryside together. I have been delegated to mum number 2.

Louise fusses over him and he loves every minute of the attention given.

The pencil drawings below of her 'Spunky', are by Louise.
