Season 2007/2008

Beauparc did not put any mares in foal in season 2006/2007 due to the extreme nature of the drought. With our dams drying out we had to buy water at $150 a tanker load which was required every two weeks. It was decided that to carry our stock in premium condition, we would not look to increase our numbers by adding more foals to our stock. Photos will show that the Beauparc horses are well conditioned and presented. And we therefore have new no foals to show or sell this year.

But despite the worry of EI coming to Victoria, we have put Beauparc Poetry in foal to Cherrington Damascus and she is due in September 2008, and if the season holds up we will probably put Beauparc Showtime in foal to arrive in March of 2009.

Season 2006/2007
We had 3 delightful foals arrive this season. They are all by Cherrington Damascus and we continue to be thrilled by the quality and, yes,also the height we are getting despite his smaller stature. The temperament is also of the reputed lovely welsh nature.

Due to the drought we are not putting our mares in foal to keep our numbers light.

Zara has delivered us the most delightful filly. As good as any she has bred it is certainly confirmation that Danny is passing on his incredible genes with support of quality mares.

Kara is surprising us with her size and she will be well up to height and make one of the best show hunters which at this stage we believe to be small galloway. Her nature is also incredible, she thinks everyone loves her (and we do) and wants nothing more than to have her rump scatched and doesn't do the foal nips thing. You can trust to have her behind you and not watch out.

I don't believe these photos really do her justice, and we expect her to be as good as any of the show hunters Beauparc has produced and we have produced National Show Hunter winners in the past.

Beauparc is proud to have her carry our prefix

As a yearling Kara is showing that she also has the Show Hunter stamp that Zara seems to produce so consistently. (See what Thomas has managed to do in the Newcomer section). We believe Kara will do very well when her time comes.

Look out for a photo update shortly.

What a treasure. Beauparc is absolutely delighted with Ruby's 2nd foal. And unlike the first time Ruby delivered uneventfully and bonded well with her baby.

Mia is very like Dale in so many ways, pretty much the same colour and markings of her grandmother (Ebony's) produce from our Welsh B stallion but showing more pony traits as should be expected from this additional cross to the riding pony, but she is expected to make the most elegant galloway.

Again the nature is wonderful and she is showing why so many are bringing back the welsh strain in riding pony circles. Mia is stunning and never fails to excite those who have seen her. A classic type with glorious movement, the most beautiful face, doey eyes, as she develops and nears weaning time we see her as ideal to the type Beauparc is aiming for. It will take an awfully good offer to tempt us to let her go.

This is a classly little horse and we are very impressed with Mia as a yearling. Look out for a photo update shortly.

Wow, what a cutie, and with all of the bling (flash) (chrome) we purchased Danny for. Again the nature is superb and she will carry the Beauparc prefix with style.

This is a stunning pony that has us all excited. And Lib's family and friends are most unimpressed that she chose not to cover any of her mares this year due to the drought. How could you not want to have more of these in your paddocks.

Visitors to the Beauparc website are all expressing their interest in Rosie's full sister All That Jazz. Jazz is now sold but Rosie will easily be the equal of her sister but will so much more flashy colour. Look out shortly for a photo update to see what a pretty yearling Rosie has turned into.

James' photo file has now been updated with photos taken in March 2007 and you can see him on our newcomer page.

We will be updating our picture gallery shortly with more recent photos of James. As a yearling he is looking as brilliant as his foal photos suggested. And certainly Libby can be commended for her dilligence as poor James foaled alone and due to some horrendous hook up with an electric fence(his mum not him) didn't get to bond with his mother (then a maiden) and ended up as a bucket baby. (but he never looked back as any of his photos can attest, he was even too fat most of the time)

Our darling Nattai Ariel then played foster mum and did a great job until poor Dale lost his mum at 6 weeks old) and we ended up with two bucket babies so don't ask how much it cost for all that milk let alone all the night time feeds.)

In coat and before he burned off James looked almost black and is most attractively marked and will be well up to height as well as being a fantastic type with the most extravagant and light footed movement that delights everyone. He is seen as being the best moving foal of the season.

He is available to a good show home that would show him to his potential.

Anna's photo file has now been updated with photos taken in March 2007 and you can see her on our newcomer page.

Anna had developed into a beautiful yearling that mostly looks black with a big star. She is another beautiful foal and we cannot be unhappy with the quality that her mother Zoe is producing.

Zoe was to be the only mare to be covered this season with the drought but having slipped her foal for this year will need to be tested for problems to see why she has missed twice now. And we worry as to how many more of these fantastic foals she will produce.

Anna is as good as any of Zoe's babies and you only need to look at photos of Kiara and Sami and Sophie elsewhere on this site to see what Anna has to live up to. Certainly she is more placid in nature than her sisters, while well up to height and looks to make big galloway.

What can you do with idiots. Poor Luke paid the price when fools decided to let off illegal fireworks on New Years Eve, (let alone the fact they could have caused a massive fire).

He was found on the morning of the 1st of January struggling along on 3 legs and a stump, (how he didn't bleed out we'll never know) and the poor thing still tried to eat. We put him down as quickly and humanely as we could and will always wonder how he managed it when they are provided with the best fencing available.

Jazz has gone to a lovely new home at Bega and we wish her new owner heaps of success as she starts her show career.

Jazz's photo file has now been updated with photos taken in March 2007 and you can see her on our newcomer page.

We will be updating Jazz's photo file shortly. She has grown into a lovely stylish pony and a sweet natured one. A curious colour we can now say she has only half a heel of one white foot (they saved it all for her sister Rosie we think) but with a gorgeous star. And looks like being sandy coloured bay that will stand out amoung the darker ones. A very pretty girly girl.

Beautifully conformated, with excellent movement she will make a great children's show pony.

Dale's photo file has now been updated with photos taken in March 2007 and you can see him on our newcomer page.

With a 12.1 hands sire we expected smaller things than we got. Dale will not only go galloway but he will be a big galloway at least. He had a terrible set back when he lost his mum to a twisted gut when he was but 6 weeks old and ended up being our second bucket baby (Beauparc's first experience of that trauma)

But what a delight he is. Lib's dilligence saw that condition wise he never suffered and was never seen without feed for the first 6 months of his and James' lives and they both had to be cut back as they were starting to get too fat. No poddy bellies for them, and none would ever pick them for being bucket babies. (Nor spoilt in the way many are.)

His nature is superb, and we are looking forward to seeing him under saddle. Had he been able to have full registration as a riding pony sire he would not have cut, but now will go on to be shown in open classes and we have a regret that we cannot make more of him and are so disappointed that his mum wasn't able to bring about the 4 week old fetus we lost along with herself.

So Dale is a one off, and gowing into the most woderful type that shows how big a loss his mum is to Beauparc. We will look to update his photo file soon.

Melody was sold as a yearling and could have been sold numerous times over as many people enquired after her from a Horse Deals advertisement.

She has gone to South Australia and we hope to hear of her successes shortly.

While Ariel is regretfully offered for sale and can be found in the For Sale page.

Marsay was sold as a weaner and went on to win numerous prestigious sashes for his new owner. More recently he was purchased by new owners and taken to Queensland where we understand he is or will be covering mares.
