Our new stallion Snowdon Vale Pater Pan made his debut at the National Capital Horse Show, and we were very pleased when he was awarded Champion Sec A. It was a very successful show with Bellingara Trinket also winning Reserve Champion Sec A.

2009 Shows

Bellingara Sinatra has had a very successful start to the 2009 show season. At Bowral Show he won the ridden Sec A mare/gelding, and went on to win the same class at Albion Park Show as well as winning the led Sec A gelding. These were big classes and we're very proud of Sinatra's success.

Our fillies have also been going well. Bellingara Tina won the led Sec A filly class at Bowral Show. Bellingara Trinket won Reserve Champion led Sec A Welsh at both Bowral and Albion Park Shows.

 

NSW All Welsh Show 2008

Bellingara Stud had a very good show this year. Bellingara Showgirl, Osory Clemency and Dalgangle Tinsel all placed second in their highly competitive mare classes. It was Bellingara Sinatra's first major show under saddle and he performed admirably with his lovely rider Katie Kelly, coming 4th in the Preliminary dressage and placing in the ridden Sec A gelding as well as in the led Welsh Hunter. To top off the show, our gorgeous foal Bellingara Troubadour (Trentlyn Benson x Dalgangle Tinsel) won the Sec A foal class and went on to be awarded BEST FOAL!

Sydney Royal 2008

We had quite a successful show this year at Sydney Royal. Osory Clemency won the Welsh Mountain Pony Mare 4 years and over and also went on to win Reserve Champion Mare/Filly. Bellingara Showgirl also won the three year old Welsh Mountain Pony Filly class. Bellingara Trinket did well for third place in the strong 2yo and under filly class.

 

Vale Owendale Bart (1979-2007)

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Owendale Bart on September 15th, 2007. Bart was on lease to us from Osory stud for the last three years. During this time we grew quite attached to him and will miss him greatly. His death was sudden and unexpected, as he had been in excellent health and condition.

Owendale Bart was a legendary stallion, sired by Coed Coch Norman (imp) who was a Royal Welsh Show Champion, and out of the mare Valley Lake Breeze (imp) who was a Royal Welsh Show Supreme Champion herself. Bart won multiple Champion and Supreme Champion awards throughout the Eastern States of Australia.

Not only was Bart an outstanding show winner himself, but also a sire of champions. Some notable examples are Osory Destiny (Champion Welsh Mountain Stallion/Colt Sydney Royal 1999 and Supreme Champion Welsh Mountain Pony 2000 NSW All Welsh), Barn Hill Fletcher (Champion Welsh Mountain Pony Stallion Brisbane Royal 2007, Champion Sec A stallion Qld All Welsh 2006, WP&CS Sire-Rating Winner Qld 2007) and Madison Park Knock Out (Multi winner at Royal and All Welsh shows in NSW and Vic).

Bart's legacy is carried on through his grandsons, Angel Park Merlin and Osory Tallyho who are destined to be the sires of the future with outstanding show performances, achieving the highest accolades at the prestigious Sydney Royal and NSW All Welsh Shows.

Goodbye Bart, old man. Rest in peace.
