The Walkers began breeding horses in the 1950’s to work their rugged mountain cattle 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. The Stud moved to its present location at Wyong in 1972 and so began the legend of Marena horses and riders that were highly successful on the show scene for the last 4 decades 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 is a very important component in our particular jigsaw of breeding. We feel that constitution and temperament and useability are intrinsically linked. All the 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 programme. 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. We are in our sixth decade of horse breeding. Our horses have not only made their mark in the showring 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 with your purchases as you “Reach for the Stars.” Maureen Walker ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ Reach for the Stars > M < > M < Marena Stud Home of Australian Champions Hints to help the Buyer’s Choice Inspection commences on Saturday morning at 11:00 am.

Champion and Ridden Champion ANSA Brisbane Royal 2002 > M < Marena Stud Home of Australian Champions 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 “winning 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. Marena Star Dance is in this Catalogue. 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.
