Mulawa Moments

The invaluable Mulawa foundation dam family of M ANGELIQUE  has added yet another record-breaking accolade to its long list of achievements with the triumph of DURRAT ALBIDAYER (by Jyar Meia Lua) at the first European leg of the Global Champions Arabian Tour in Cannes, France.

11 November 1997 - 22 July 2023 One of the most cherished horses at Mulawa was laid to rest on Saturday. OWENDALE LEMON TWIST, beloved throughout the equine community as simply ‘TWISTER’, enjoyed his final afternoon on a wonderfully warm and sunny winter day surrounded by those who loved him most. Purchased in 2005 for a young Kate Farrell (then 10 years old), TWISTER was already a highly accomplished show horse at the highest level of open competition in Australia at eight years of age. With Kate in the saddle, TWISTER began competing at Arabian events, first as an Arabian Riding Pony, and later as an Arabian Pony, accruing eight Australian National Championships in just two years. In successive years, TWISTER

Wishing all the blessings of the season to the global Arabian Community.

The Arabian Horse continues to bring infinite reward and joy to all of as at Mulawa. As we embark on our Golden Anniversary, celebrating 50 years of involvement with and dedication to the Arabian breed, we reflect back across the decades, to the horses, the people and the programmes that inspired us with AMBITION, with VISION and an all-consuming passion for the horse. What a journey this has been, with so much promise yet ahead... May your Holiday Season and New Year be filled with possibility and those you love, and may 2022 bring us all closer together to share as a global Community. There is so much more that unites us, ignited by our shared love for the Arabian Horse.   ~The Farrell Family & Team Mulawa

At the Australian National Championships in March, Mulawa Arabian Stud achieved a significant milestone as both breeders and exhibitors. When the final scores were tabulated in the comparative championship for mares aged four and older on Saturday evening, Greg, Julie & Jane Farrell became the breeders, as well as the owners/exhibitors, of their tenth successive Australian National Champion Senior Mare. This astounding achievement has been half a century in the making, reflecting five decades of extraordinary dedication and commitment to the Arabian breed. As her name intimates,  KLASSICAL FAME MI is a daughter of international ambassador KLASS – a four-time undefeated East Coast Champion, a

Since the transfer of the breeding herd to Alabama Stud in the Upper Hunter Valley late in the previous decade, the three elder statesmen of the Mulawa breeding programme have remained in residence in Sydney, blessing our lives each day with their magnificence and presence. In the last 12 months, we have bid a bittersweet farewell to both FAME MAKER R, who was laid to rest in April 2019 just shy of his 30 th birthday, and to TS AL MALIK just two months ago in January, in his 28 th year of life. The only senior sire remaining is not only the stallion whose importation launched the modern evolution of the Mulawa programme in the early 1990’s, he is the stallion who has lived longer at Mulawa than ANY other - imported, introduced,

Congratulations to all the members of the Mulawa Community on their extraordinary success at the 2020 Australian Arabian National Championships! We are especially proud that three Mulawa-bred horses achieved the highest scores of the show in their respective divisions - ALLEGRO MI, WORLD CLASS MI & the extraordinary VIENNA MI. The trifecta in the purebred gelding classes was also a moment of pride: Gold Champion at all three age levels - PREMIERE FF, TREND MI & ALLEGRO MI; a clean sweep in the Senior Geldings with Gold - ALLEGRO MI, Silver - ALLEGIANT MI & Bronze - BOGART MI; and another full podium in the Ridden Arabian Geldings with Gold - CHELLEASON MAGNUMS GOLD, Silver - DARK KNIGHT MI & Bronze

It is with tremendous sorrow that we share with the global Arabian Community the passing of  TS AL MALIK (Hello Barich ELS x BF Tiffany Select by BF Rageymazon). A beloved international icon who illuminated show rings with his masculine power and charisma on three continents as Australian & Brazilian National Champion, as well as a Scottsdale Reserve Champion, MALIK is best remembered as an invaluable Mulawa chief sire since his arrival to Australia in 1998. Bred in Brazil by Toni Salloum, MALIK was blessed with a unique combination of Spanish, Gainey, Raffles, Polish and Egyptian bloodlines, the infusion of which into the Mulawa programme has reaped infinite reward since the arrival of his first foal,

Wishing Everyone a New Year and a New Decade Ahead Full of Infinite Abundance, Reward and Possibility ~ The Farrell Family & Team Mulawa
