In Loving Memory | SUGARLOAF SIRHARA

20 January 2007 - 20 February 2019

It is with great sadness that we bid farewell to our beautiful foundation mare SUGARLOAF SIRHARA, who passed away quietly this morning after suffering from acute colic. We thank our team and veterinary staff for attending to her so diligently and taking every measure to ensure that she had the very best of care.

Bred by Lynn and Malcolm Gilbert of Sugarloaf Stables, Victoria, SIRHARA came to Mulawa Performance as a two year old filly. From the age of four this bright young mare was successfully campaigned by Daniella Dierks, with the pair earning remarkable accolades - including the title of Champion of Champions at the 2012 PSI Dressage and Jumping With the Stars.

After SIRHARA’s retirement from competition, she became Mulawa Performance’s preeminent broodmatron at Alabama Stud near Scone. Her progeny (all but one by Mulawa Performance’s chief sire, Grand Prix Westphalian stallion ABER HALLO 29) include 2018 DJTWS Four Year Old Champion ABER HALO MI, Dressage Champion ABER SIENNA, ABER SANDMAN MI, ABER SHILOH and ABER SOLUTELY MI.

Her legacy lives on in these fine young horses, who each display the same remarkable brightness and kind soul possessed by their dam.

A truly extraordinary mare and a beloved member of the Mulawa family, we shall never forget Sirhara’s profound impact upon us.

Farewell, beautiful lady - our Champion of Champions...
