It is with great sadness that we share the news on the passing of one of the most beloved members of our equine family - ADVENT. The gelding son of Mulawa foundation horses AMBITION and EUNI, ADVENT was a full brother to the late Mulawa sire ARRIVAL. Just shy of 28 years of age, ADVENT had served for the past 23 years of his happy existence as the personal mount of Greg Farrell. We thank you for being a truly wonderful horse and superb ambassador for your breed. Goodbye friend...
It is with great sadness that we share the tragic news of the premature passing of Mulawa chief sire MAGNUM FORTY FOUR. His time with all of us was far too short. For those of us who had the privilege to know him or to be touched by his influence, our lives have been unquestionably changed for the better. You will always be loved and remembered with great fondness and esteem. Rest well and in peace, dear friend.
The final foal of the 2012-2013 season was born this morning, January 18th Aussie time, or better said, Alabama time. We are proud to report it is yet another filly, this time a stunning bay out of former Scottsdale Champion LLC BRIANA, sired by Mulawa junior stallion ALLEGIANCE MI. Thus far, both BRIANA and ALLEGIANCE have emerged as the superstars of the current Mulawa foal crop. Together, the pair produced three superb fillies via embryo transfer, all within five weeks of each other and all a different colour!
