If the pop up doesn't work for you, try another search engine such as Internet Explorer. Welcome to Beauparc. We are a small Boutique stud in central Victoria that breeds quality show galloways, show ponies and show hunter ponies and galloways. And although we didn't plan for it, Beauparc progency are now being admired as sports ponies, with a number heading very successfully into pony dessage competitions. Their movement and sports ability making them very versatile performers. William as he was known, was sired by the well known imported riding pony Rotherwood Windswept, and his dam is Rae Chantellie who was by the APSB stallion Wodonga Clark, who was said to be a riding pony before his time, with a fantastic front and great movement, and comes mostly from welsh bloodlines; crossed with the ASB (thoroughbred) mare Backstalls. And from his very first drop William proved he could pass on incredible genes with regard to conformation and movement. He has only failed to excite on a larger scale due to the lack of a prestigious (Imp) behind his name, and has therefore been less recognised and certainly more under-rated than he should have been. But in the future his progeny will prove his value as his daughters are already delivering current and future champions. And to his credit, he has also delivered national show hunter winners in crosses with the more horsey mares.
--------------------------------------------- 22nd November 2009 Summer has literally sprung. At Beauparc, our foals are looking magnificent. Please continue to read down the page and see the cute pictures we got when all the mares and foals were put in together. Having foaled down, and with the foals having all had their initial handling period it was time they went into their herd time. And don't they look great. Meanwhile Rosie has completed her breaking in and as part of the breeding process will find a place on our for sale page. For a short time longer, Kara, is still available at a reduced price because she is yet to be broken in, (although all basic handling has been done) but as Lib makes the time to break her in, the price will be adjusted accordingly. So if you are looking for a brilliant newcomer, don't miss this chance. Meanwhile Thomas and James are doing very well in their outings and we will shortly be able to add their results to this site.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4th November 2009 Wow! At last!. For our friends who have been looking for our last update, please note we are finally back on air. I updated my computer and the website program and suddenly couldn't connect back to update our site. Despite much playing aorund the technology defeated us until our great computer whizz Shaune had a gowith his techno brain and we were finally reconnected and the pages are up again.Thanks Shaune. We've had great news at Beauparc since our last update, not least the arrival of 4 fantastic babies, check in and see them on our foal page soon. Thomas and James have been flying the brand in the show ring for season 2009/2010 and done very well and their results will be up soon as well. Mia is broken in and we are most excited to see her come to where she can get out and show what quality Danny is giving us. Rosie is almost through her breaking in period and Libby is looking to bring her back in and finish with her and then to break Kara in. Isobelle had lost her coat and the winter hairly fugglies and is looking fantastic so look out for her photos as a yearling though these won't show the incredible movement she has. So welcome back and see us soon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 30th September 2009 With great please we announce we have had our 4 arrivals for season 2009/2010. Our girls have done us proud and we have 3 colts and one filly.Their photos files will soon be up. Look for them on our foal page. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7th March 2009 Please note Beauparc Charisma (Kara) file has now been updated and she can be found on our Newcomer page. A few of our recent results. Sebastian before he flew off to his new home in New Zealand at the Victorian All Welsh, went 2nd led Part Welsh Show Hunter Gelding 12 hands and under, then 1st Ridden Part Welsh 12 hands and under, Champion Ridden Part Welsh, in the capable hands of young Grace Hill. Then at Barastoc HOTY he went 1st led SH pony 12 hands and under. In New Zealand he is getting his first experience as a leading rein pony. Beauparc Cadence (Thomas) having given way to the necessity to bring out two newcomers for the show season went straight to Barastoc HOTY and even though audience applause rattled his confidence, he ended up in the top 8 of a big and strong class of Show Hunter Galloways. He then in the last 2 weeks has taken Reserve Champion Open Galloway at Rochester Agricultural Show, followed by 1st and Champion Open Ridden Galloway at Jerilderie and 1st and Champion Show Hunter Galloway at Tullamarine. Beauparc Exquistite (James) took the 1sr ribbon in the led buckskin gelding class at the Royal Melbourne Horse Show, then went Champion Led Buckskin male. Despite some greenness showing, he then took 6th place in the ridden Buckskin gelding 14 hands and under. Then 4th in the led RPSH 3 years and under, 4th in the ridden RPSH class 12.2 to 13.2 hands class, and 3rd led Part Welsh 3 years old. (One forgets he is still so young) Meanwhile Beauparc All That Jazz (Jazz) has taken Champion Led All Breeds Pony, Champion Led Pony Hack and then Supreme Led of Show at the Bega Agricultural Show for her owner. Congratulations to Sally. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st March 2009 We have been remiss in updating our website with our top shows all underway and of course the tragic fires that we have been so close to. For those friends so badly affected and to all the others who have suffered so dreadfully in that terrible experience, Beauparc wishes them all the best in this recovery time, and our sincere condolences for what has been lost. Our own nerves were tested and we also feared for ourselves in those first days, but fortunately the fires travelled away from us and not closer. For all that it is horse show time, we will be glad to see the back of this summer. We will list our All Welsh, Melbourne Summer Royal and Barastoc achievements shortly. Beauparc Exquisite and Beauparc Sebastian have done us proud, and Beauparc Cadence is also catching a few of the late shows. This is because Beauparc Sebastian has sold and he will now be making his mark in New Zealand and we wish Deborah all the best with him. We also invite people to check in on Mia and Rosie as we have now updated their photo files and they can be found on our Newcomer page.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3rd December 2008 Since the last update we have been keeping busy. Our mares are in foal and with visiting mares also confirming their pregnancies, Beauparc has had time to compete in the local shows and both James and Sebastian in their debut season have continued to do us proud by consistently placing in the winners circle. We have decided to sell Sebastian as it is hard to always find a rider for him and as Thomas badly needs to come back out under saddle. And updates on some of the results are under the boys sections in our website. (See James in the newcomer page and Sebastian now in our for sale page.) Meanwhile Isabella, Zoe's foal of this season is looking magnificent. She should definitely go galloway and we have to be absolutely delighted with the quality of Danny's produce. And not just for us is he delivering the goods as we hear quite a number of Danny foals by outside breeders are to be shown at the upcoming welsh shows. He is crossing well to thoroughbreds but also right down to the welsh A as seen by Nattai Ariel's gorgeous youngster. Pictures from last weekend of Zoe and Isabella follow.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd November 2008 Beauparc has been very busy the last few months. Four of our mares are now in foal even though the long dry continues. And we have had good news and bad news since our last update. We lost Beauparc Reminiscing and will miss her intensely as the two foals (James and Mia) she has produced for us are outstanding. Because this meant we have lost a wonderful thoroughbred line we have added ASB mare Sea Rhapsody to our number and we thank Dale Plumb for that gift. She is a stunningly beautiful mare despite her age and she is now in foal and we hope she gives us a number of beautiful babies in the next few years. We had a couple of services to Jody Allen's Manorvale Country Royal in the bank from a previous year and with a short window of opportunity used him over a number of our mares. To prove he is over his set backs of last year, he got a 4 out of 4 strike rate much to the dismay of our own boys who were waiting for their turn with our girls should they have returned and so they have now had to content themselves with outside girlfriends for this season. Meanwhile the show season is well underway and both Beauparc Sebastian and Beauparc Exquisite (James) have made their show debut and started out under saddle.
And aren't they lovely. Beauparc is very proud of our two new boys who took blue ribbons in their first classes. We would also like to thank that stunning little rider Grace Hill who has ridden Sebastian so successfully in his classes. Her ability reaches way beyond her years, such professional little riders are hard to find and Sebastian goes beautifully for her. He is a wonderful childrens pony and is such a easy pony to get along with.. And because we can't do it all, Beauparc Lauderdale (Dale) will be held over to next year to make his debut. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 27th September 2008 Spring has burst forth and the horse season is now well into its stride. So too here at Beauparc. We have had our expected new arrival. Zoe had her foal, a bay filly early this month. This is the only foal we had planned for this year, but we are hoping the season will be better and so are covering a number of our mares for this year. Zoe's baby didn't have quite the 'bling' we were hoping for, with only one white sock and a tiny star, but it a leggy cutie, and will be a great bay colour, with a very outgoing and engaging personality. Danny (Cherrington Damascus) has certainly done well again. This little one should mature galloway.
Congratulations too, to the new owners of Ariel. She has delivered them a most stunning foal, also a filly, and also by our own Danny. With socks and a beautiful blaze, this filly is an absolute winner, and Beauparc couldn't be happier. And what a wonderful pony Ariel is, 3 absolute quality foals from 3 different stallions makes her a most desirable brood mare. And talking of Ariel's foals, Beauparc Sebastian who was retained by Beauparc, has had a couple of outings in the show ring this year and in his very first show went first and champion small Show Hunter Pony. So now both of Ariels previous foals are proven show winners. Beauparc will upload some photos of Sebastian under saddle soon.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st July 2008 It's winter, cold yes, but not nearly wet enough. Sadly, it looks like Victoria is continuing with it's long dry even though we have a delightful sheen of green everywhere. Meanwhile James (B. Exquisite) broke in beautifully and is now having a short break before he comes back in to take the next step. Dale (B. Lauderdale) too is broken is and going beautifully. By the end of this week he too will be taking a break and be able to reflect on what he has learnt. Both boys were a dream to break in, and we look forward to them making their mark.Meanwhile Zoe progresses well and we are looking forward to seeing what sort of a baby she is having to Danny. To see what sort of saddle galloway Dale is, here are a couple of recent photos of him under saddle in just his 3rd week of riding, albeit in his winter woolies.
And a couple of James taken a few weeks ago also in his winter woolies.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19th April 2008 Beauparc is now into it's winter program. James (Beauparc Exquisite) is currently in the process of being broken in and isn't he being a good boy. He's loving the attention and is picking it up so quickly and in such good humour. As we had already presumed, his movement is outstanding and we are anticipating him making an outstanding newcomer in the coming season. We may also start him in some pony dessage trials in a few months time. Dale will then be in for his turn. Kiara has now sold and we expect to hear very good things from her new owner, a 10 year old girl from Dubbo who was very excited to be able to buy a galloway with Kiara's talent. We expect to hear of her successes in the very near future. We had planned to put Zara in foal this month for a late season foal, but the sudden change to cool weather and the continuing dry have decided us against that, and we will leave it to Zoe to have our only foal for this season. But we are expecting something truly special with this first Zoe/Danny foal. We have put in an order for some extra flash (bling), and with Zoe's talent for producing superb babies, we are expecting something extra special. With Danny's babies at Beauparc and elsewhere proving to be a delight it is ensuring his continuance as a desired sire. At this time though, we are planning to cover Zara, Zoe, Ruby, Shenae and our maiden mare Sami in the coming breeding season. We have 2 services booked to Manorvale County Royal, which we couldn't take up last year due to the outbreak of EI, but hope the coming season will not prove to be so difficult. And having sold a good number of our progeny this season we are ready to add to our numbers with some new babies in 2009. And if time allows, both Danny and Thomas look likely to begin doing some dessage within the next few months.
