ABOUT MARENA STUD Maureen, Bruce and Lindy Walker have had a lifetime involvement with all kinds of horses. The Walkers began breeding horses in the 1950’s to work their rugged mountain property Mt. Yango, south west of Wollombi NSW. This need for sensible and athletic horses has carried on over the years in their show horses, so the Marena horse or pony is very versatile. Marena Stud breed, break in, train and show their own horses. The time, thought and tradition that have gone into the breeding of the Marena horses have indeed made them unique. It is the Stud’s aim to stay as close to nature as possible, hence all our horses are paddock reared. Constitution being a very important component in our particular jigsaw of breeding. We feel that constitution and temperament and useability are intrinsically linked. A few people enjoy showing their horses in hand but the bulk of purchasers of horses wish to ride their horses. We keep that firmly in mind at Marena Stud – all broodmares must have proved their ability either in the show ring working or as a producer of quality saddle animals. We have used only daughters from these mares to continue our breeding. All our stallions also have had to prove their ability under saddle before we use them. We believe this explains the consistent excellence of the Marena horses’ performance over more than five decades of breeding. We rear the youngsters in a natural paddock environment to allow them time to grow and develop, physically and mentally, galloping to improve wind and muscle, and free as the breeze to develop an unhindered sense of freedom and character in an atmosphere of liberty, just as nature intended. All the horses, when they are broken in, undergo a comprehensive programme which includes dressage, hacking, fast work, jumping, cross country and road work. The young horses are well handled to lead, pick up legs and some have been mouthed ready to ride. Your purchase will be the result of over 50 years of breeding by performance selection. The purchase of young stock provides the opportunity to buy a future Champion very reasonably. All you need to invest is a little time. Marena horses train very quickly and have an inherent good temperament. We are in our fifth decade of horse breeding. We aim at winning in the show ring but our horses have certainly not only made their mark there but have had success in all fields – showing, dressage, jumping, eventing, endurance, sporting, harness and Pony Club. Many have stayed competitive into their late teens because of their soundness and have been especially suitable for children. Marena horses are very versatile. Aiming for consistent quality over a period of 54 years of horse breeding we are gladdened by the testimonials we have received over the years about the success, and reliability of our horses. Satisfied owners of successful horses in all states testify to the consistent excellence of Marena horses. We wish you the very best of luck as you “Reach for the Stars.”

The Female Families The horses at Marena Stud are grouped into families tracing from mother to daughter to continue the tradition of producing versatile quality riding horses. The success of the Stud can be attributed largely to the strength of the female lines due to the Stud’s policy of only breeding from the best females.

Over the years certain Families have proved their supremacy and handed down their “wining ways” and strong, sound physique unfailingly on to their progeny.

Representatives of these powerful female lines are in the Catalogue.

The DANCE Family – Marena Cha Cha, the great matriarch was the beginning of this most successful family. She had everything – good looks, hard clear bone and a placid nature. These attributes she passed on to her progeny down the generations. Her progeny have won 37 Royal Show Championships.

The STAR Family – Originating from Marena Valetta (Cha Cha’s smallest daughter) also was always mated to Jedda Park Little Sunray and produced a dynasty of Royal Champions of their own. Royal Show Champions Marena Stardust, Marena Gold Dust come from this family.

The FLOWER Family – This family started with a mare bred by the late Mary Willsallen, Lowlynn Bluebell. Her daughters, bred to Marena stallions, produced a bouquet of champions including Australia’s first National Champion, Marena Mayflower (by Kalimah) who in turn produced Marena Windflower (by Sun Puff (Imp)), five times Supreme Champion at Sydney Royal.

The TRUE LOVE Family – From the exquisite 11.2 hds mare, Marena True Love who was by Australia’s leading pony stallion, Lowlynn Silver Chief. She won Sir Clive Uhr trophy at the Australian Horse of the Year 1976. This family has produced children’s ponies and wonderful champions like Marena Sweet Kiss and Marena Heartbeat.

The CAMEO Family – Originated from the pony mare, Cassette (by Lowlynn Silver Chief) mated to Kalimah. This mare produced Marena Cameo who had five lovely daughters. They all proved to be show winners, including Marena Captivate – Champion at Brisbane and Sydney, Marena Accent – Supreme at Sydney Royal and Supreme ASH National Championships.

The AMBER Family – The newest of the super Families commenced when we bought Merrima Topaz, an Australian Pony Stud Book mare. She produced Marena Amber Folly, an amazing pony who won three Grand National titles in a row, who is proving a prolific brood mare.

The LASS Family – This Family started with our purchase of Baringa Silver Chief when he was in his twenties & the fillies Gloriana Stormy Lass (both his daughter and grand-daughter). Stormy Lass was a productive Broodmare and produced Marena Master (Royal & HOY winner) and Marena Stormy Lass and others - amongst them winning Show Ponies, Jumpers, Dressage & Pony Club mounts.

The HIGHLIGHTS Family – We attended Jan McDonald’s dispersal sale of her ABSB Stud & purchased a few ponies and a kind grey mare – Glenmore Highlights. She was a very useful pony for teaching in the Riding Academy but the pinnacle of her success was realised when, mated with Marena Sky Chief, she produced Marena Skylights (winner of 8 Royal Show Champions) and Marena Twilights who, with tiny 6-yo Keeley Walker Johnson, won 1st in Parent & Child at Sydney Royal 2012 and then in the Hunter Pony ne 14hh to be ridden by a child not over 17 yrs – they were awarded first place after a brilliant workout including a gallop. Twilights is the winner of 5 Royal Show Champions.

The KINVAGAL Family – An urgent phone call to rescue Stud horses that were going to the Sale, found us with 8 horse to find homes for. They were all sold and did well for their new owners. We however kept the last Warmblood brown mare, Kinvagal. A kind, easy-going mare, she produced Marena Salute, Marena Gala Breeze, Marena Celeste (sold to WA), Marena Gal Chief, Marena Gala Sky and Marena Gala (also sold to WA). The MERRIMA Family – When the Merrima Stud was dispersed due to the ill health of its founder; we bought 10 ABSB mares, several of them producing winning progeny for us.
