Mulawa Moments

The essential source of all great success in any breeding program are the matrons selected as the foundation. Mulawa has been fortunate to have been blessed with several such meritorious matrons, including KARMAA , DZINA & M ANGELIQUE . All three were honoured at the 2017 Australian Arabian National Championships with Legacy Awards in each of the purebred female halter divisions. For the third time in four years, Mulawa was the proud breeder & exhibitor of all three National Championship fillies & mares. For the second successive year, Cameron Bonney was at the lead of each of the Gold National Champion purebred females, an achievement unrivalled in continental history. A fitting tribute to the

Just a few months later, KLASS would earn his third successive Australian

Celebrating the Mulawa-Bred Gold National Champions |  VENECIA MI The good fortune of breeding often involves the fortuitous coming together of the right people, the right horses and the right situations at exactly the right time. For the Farrell Family of Mulawa Arabian Stud, this coming together of all the right elements has been a constant theme consistently repeated in the breeding success they have now enjoyed for over four decades. An inspiring incarnation of that breeding success is VENECIA MI , the result of breeding fourth-generation Mulawa-bred sire ALLEGIANCE MI  to US import VALENTINE MI . ALLEGIANCE, who brilliantly combines the blood of invaluable foundation pillars KARMAA , AMBITION  &

Celebrating the Mulawa-Bred Gold National Champions |  VENICE MI In an undefeated season of unprecedented success, VENICE MI has redefined the standard of excellence in the continental show ring.

The greatest joys and blessings of breeding are those that endure in profound and unexpected ways... 20 years ago, in one of the most dynamic and unforgettable show ring appearances in Arabian horse history, FAME MAKER R   was crowned Australian National Champion Stallion with Greg Farrell at the lead.

The enduring legacy of FAME MAKER includes such memorable Australian National Champions as: FAMES PRESENCE, GOLD N WINGS, FLAME MAKER, BECAUSE, HIGH CALIBRE, RAPID FIRE, ECHOS OF MARWAN,

Long necked, perfectly balanced with huge eyes and an abundance of natural show attitude, ALLEGIANT was an impressive first effort for his sire and a very promising

17 November 1982 - 16 December 2015   This morning we bid farewell to our beloved MULAWA CHANCE. Born in November of 1982, CHANCE was foaled at the old Mulawa property where her sire, AMBITION, set in motion the direction and purpose of the Mulawa program. Tragically, AMBITION was lost prematurely, his legacy and influence left to his treasured daughters, with MULAWA CHANCE amongst his best and most prolific.   Not only was CHANCE the most celebrated of her sire's daughters, she was also the best produce of her esteemed dam, GROJECCA. Imported in-utero from the UK in the infancy of the Mulawa program, GROJECCA was a life-long favourite of Greg Farrell Sr. GROJECCA was in turn the dam of MULAWA THE QUEST, a consummate

Six generations of MULAWA CHANCE champion descendants now influence breeding programs around the world. At Mulawa, her dam family continues to rank as one of the most influential, consistently producing Arabians of world-class quality that excel in the all areas of equine endeavour.
