latest update 18 August 2010 Hi Everyone We
have decided to stand the stallions at stud for the months of
August, September and October. It is for a limited amount
of approved mares. They stand at $1500 each.
I have some news from Noni Seagrim who is competing on CP Louisville (Chronicle DV x CP Louiza).
Hi,
I took Louie to Coolamon last weekend for his qualifying
80km ride, and he did it very successfully in 7hrs 4
mins, with only 3 B's in his log book for the entire
ride.
He was determined to have a gallop finish with another
big horse, and I had a bit of a struggle to keep him
back!! His Heart rates were again a credit to his
breeding rather than his lack of fitness!! they were 37,
46, 50. The final vetting was done as it started to get
cold and he was a bit shivery down in the arena, which
would have put his HR up.
I had intended to ride him completely barefoot but after
taking him for a ride on Saturday afternoon I knew i was
an extreme liability, he was just too soft from all the
rain at home, so I had shoes put on the front and he
completed the ride with both back feet bare.
He has fantastic courage and showed me a little bit of
what he was capable of on some portions of the 2nd leg,
opening up into a huge flying canter, and just
cruising!!!! I cant wait to get him really fit and start
campaigning him and I cant wait to get started on
Kaliente as well.
I had better go, I have 4 stables to clean before
breakfast!!
Cheers,
Noni
There isn't that much happening at Coolinda Park at the moment. We are having a great season with lots of rain. Grass growing everywhere and the horses are really enjoying it. We have no foals due this season so that is keeping things quiet as well. The ag shows are starting in our area so we will be supporting as many of them as we can. We have donated garlands for the purebred championships at the 3 shows to be held at the Bathurst showgrounds on the long weekend in October 2nd,3rd and 4th. For programs go to www.majesticstud.wetpaint.com Also on October the 4th is a 'b' class show at Morongla showgrounds. Lots of arab classes as well as second chance rings, showhunter ring and breed rings. Lots of chances to qualify for the 'Aussies'. Programs are available on www.emmasshowhorses.com I will leave you with a photo of the fillies. This was taken last week when we had a sunny spell. Thanks to Belinda Richardson for her photography skills. From left to right is: CP Ekstaza (WH Zmanor E x Carousel), CP Dances with me (Walidayt x Dancing in the Dark), CP Empress (WH Zmanor E x CP Esmeralda), CP Dewiza (WH Zmanor E x CP Darowizna), CP Waltzing Matilda (Walidayt x CP Montana) for sale, CP Wizja (WH Zmanor E x Carousel), CP Elza (WH Zmanor E x CP Dzaling), CP Tennesee Tess (WH Zmanor E x CP Texas Tilly), and the gelding CP Kazh (WH Zmanor E x CP Klara). CP Kazh is the only gelding that we have left for sale. Cheers Carole
Past Updates. As we
are dispersing we have some other items of interest for sale.
Firstly neck sweats. All sizes and types. From
gullet sweats to poll and over shoulder sweats. These
sweats have not been used for at least 10 years as our horses
have not needed them. The long necks and slim
throatlatches come naturally. Make an offer on the ones you
want. Will be sold a The
following photos
Also
as you may have noticed we get up to all sorts of things at
Coolinda Park. Pictured below is one of them. You
never know what may join our farm!!
I had a visit from breeders in New Zealand. Phillip and Alison Higgins from Nelson. Although not nearly long enough it was great to be able to show the horses to people who were really interested in seeing the polish bloodlines and of the course the horses had a wonderful time following them around and being nosey. It was a very interesting time and I wish them well on there journey in Australia and going to Kentucky to compete with the NZ squad at WEG. Till next time Carole Past Updates Things are really starting to move at Coolinda Park. The horses are selling and heading off to their new homes. Best of luck to all purchasers and I know that they will bring as much happiness to you as they have to me. We
have also been to a couple of shows in the last couple of
months. Firstly Arabs Inc held their Autumn Affair at
Canberra. This year they were able to run foal classes at
the beginning of the show. We took 2 foals for these
classes. CP Walencia (Walidayt imp USA x CP Errika)
pictured below, was shown in the pure arabian filly class.
The
next foal show was at Morongla and we took 3 foals. CP
Walencia (Walidayt imp USA x CP Errika), CP Winston (Walidayt
imp USA x CP Hello Dolly) and CP Adasha Flazh Last
weekend we went to the foal show at Bathurst with the same 3
foals. CP Walencia had a very scary day and thought that
she was just too excited to be shown! Well over 17hds this
time!! She placed second in her filly class. CP
Winston took it all in his stride and won the colt class and
then won Resv Champion Purebred Foal. CP Adasha Flazh
pictured below, again won all his colt classes and was awarded
Champion Buckskin and Resv Champion Arabian Derivative.
Another relaxed and enjoyable show.
We show our foals as naturally as possible and use these shows as experience for them. They arent clipped and are out there to have a relaxed time and enjoy themselves. They stay tied to the float and eat their hay and have a sociable time. When at home they run in the paddock together to play and grow. The above photos were all taken at Morongla show by Belinda Richardson of Khaliffa Arabians & Bullmastiffs. In
the sales news we have CP Kaliope and M Essential heading off to
their new homes in Victoria. These mares are heading to
the fire ravage area of Victoria to re-establish a damaged stud.
We wish them all the best with their future breeding program.
CP Kaliente has been sold into an endurance home. She will
be broken in and taken on the rides when ready. Keep an
eye out for her. CP Montana may soon be joined by another
as well. Which one will it be?? More photos have
been added to the sales list. I have been able to sponsor the purebred foal championships at all these foal shows with garlands that I have been making. I am also sponsoring the purebreds at the All breeds foal show at Hawkesbury on the 18th July and at the all breeds Youngstock show at Holbrook on the 1st of August. So if you would like garlands for the purebred classes or are interested in them for any part of an event please let me know. Till next time Carole Past Updates I have just added a couple of photos onto the sales page. CP Montana is sold and going to her new home in Victoria. I have made the decision to have a dispersal of all my pure polish Arabians. This decision has not come lightly. There are many reasons for the sale of the horses. All of them are in fat condition and fully registered. The first stage of the dispersal includes the following horses. Both of my beautiful stallions are available. Chronicle DV (imp USA) and WH Zmanor E (imp USA) have proven themselves in both the show ring and most importantly as superior sires. To be able to purchase such proven sires with world renowned bloodlines in Australia is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Don't miss this chance. The mares include: sired by Warranty imp/exp USA
Captivate sired by Creme Dynasty imp USA
CP Kaliope sired by Lingxiu dec
CP Dzaling
sired by Chronicle DV imp USA CP
My girl Lollipop sired by WH Zmanor E imp USA Ekstaza sired by Walidayt imp USA Waltzing Matilda There is also the following geldings: CP
Zloty Photos will be added to the website as they are available. Please contact me for more information on any of these horses. Carole
Past Updates I have some endurance news from Noni Seagrim and her gelding CP Louisville (Chronicle DV x CP Louiza):
Hi,
Just a quick line to say hello and to let you know that
Lou did another successful training ride last weekend.
He was barefoot with out boots all the way around the
rather demanding course. It was his first bare foot ride
and his performance was exceptional. He's gigantic
flowing trot blew everyone away, and he was reasonably
well behaved after some excitement at the start of the
ride, he does a lovely side pass!!
His pre ride Heart Rate was a little silly 52 BPM, but
it was his first ride of the season and he was a little
exited. Everyone of his scores was a perfect A. Also due
to our uncertainty of being able to load and unload him
from our truck, I rode him from Forest Hill In Curtain,
Canberra to the ride base at the Kambar Pony Club
so instead of doing just 40 km he ended up doing 50km +.
A very good effort for him, with minimal training.
I hope to take him to Coonabarrabran Equestrian Expo
this year as a part of the school team, it should allow
both of us to gain a little insight into the wide world
out side of endurance!!! I find out tomorrow if I
have made the team, so I'll let you know!!!
Cheers,
Noni
Some show results from Goulburn show:
Coolinda Park
Azpark (WF Zmanor E x Coolinda Park Aflame) owned by
Catherine Burgess of "Manton Park", Yass and Coolinda Park
Eksplojza (WF Zmanor E x Coolinda Park Erikka) flew the flag
for Coolinda Park at the 2010 Goulburn Show and showed what
wonderful ambassadors they are for the Arabian breed with
their calmness and acceptance of all that goes on at
agricultural shows. Azpark (or Sparky the Wonder Horse)
showed well for his owner, Catherine, and did a
lovely, well balanced work out and was just pipped at the
post for the Champion Purebred Led Gelding award but came
away with a well deserved Reserve Champion sash. Catherine
has got him looking great and his colour and shine are a
credit to the way Catherine looks after him. This was
only his second show so well done to both Sparky and
Catherine.
Eksplojza leased
from Coolinda Park by Judith Perkins of Bellmount Forest via
Gunning, NSW has had limited showing experience as well and
this was her second show for the 2009/2010 show season.
She is a late foal and has taken long to mature but has
really filled out in recent times and is starting to look
like more like a four year old rather than the gangly filly
she was last year. Her head has dried out a lot and
she is a lovely fronted mare with a fine, long, swan like
neck. In maturing she has still retained the substance and
refined elegance that will stand her in good stead in years
to come. In her mare class she stood beautifully for
Judith and stretched kindly when asked and "gave" at just
the right time. At the same time as her workout, some
motor bike riders on the sidelines decided that it was a
good time to start up their bikes and jump them onto the ute.
Eksplojza's eyes stood out on stalks but she responded well
and did a lovely workout despite all the action nearby.
She was awarded Champion Led Purebred Mare.
After showing
Catherine and Judith celebrated their respective wins over
coffee, wonderful chicken sandwiches and Anzac biscuits
whilst Sparky and Eksplojza munched on their hay nearby.
Both Catherine and Judith felt the effort of coming to the
show was worth it and look forward to getting out on the
western show circuit next season and again flying the flag
for Zmanor and Coolinda Park!
And now from New Zealand:
Some sale news. Mark Tulley and Lance Chapman of Armidale have been to Coolinda Park and picked up their new WH Zmanor E gelding from CP Lingxia bint Sepia. He is a full brother to CP Linkz and in their capable hands is sure to be as successful. Mark and Lance were able to spend a few days at Coolinda Park and a great time was had by all. Stay tuned for what else they have taken with them! CP Essenzia (WH Zmanor E x Vanessa Lea) will soon be leaving to her new home in Rockhampton QLD. Joining her on the trip will be her Mother Vanessa Lea. More details to come. Past Updates I
have some photos from the Dilutes Australia Championships held
We
also took CP Linkz (WH Zmanor E x Lingxia bint Sepia) for
the purebred classes at Wagga. Linkz walked away with
Supreme Champion Purebred as well as Resv Champion Led Galloway.
It was the first time she was shown in the Galloway ring and
really flew the flag for purebred arabians. All photos

The
following photos are of Emily over the last 12 months. Her
shetland Thorpeville Amos, has been taken to a lot of shows with
her as well as doing Pony Club. Emily loves to show at
halter and can often be seen giving him 'halter lessons' and
trotting him everywhere. Many judges and stewards have
commented on how well she gets him to stand and 'she shows him
like an arab!'. This one was taken at Canberra Royal 2009. Emily was 6 and Buddy 5. Photo credit Nicole Hewitt - All creatures photography

Photo credit Alicia Birch Photography. Keep an eye out for Emily and Toppgunn as they enter the ring this year. They have started dressage with a training day on the weekend and Emily is all excited about it. I have some sales news for you. Lisa and Fred Smith of Foxridge Stud in Coffs Harbour have purchased 3 horses from us. They now have added to there stud the 2yo chestnut filly CP Frezja (WH Zmanor E x CP Foxiling), the weanling filly CP Dahling (Chronicle DV X CP Dzaling) and a future sire CP Ganztar (WH Zmanor E x CP Chicago Lil). We hope to see these horses out in the showring in the future. Congratulations. I have altered the sales list and added some more females. I need to get some more photos but things are a bit busy at the moment with all foals weaned so all the stables are full. They will soon be added to the site. Cheers Carole
Past Updates Happy New Year! Hope the New Year finds you all happy and well. We had a great break over Christmas and enjoyed time with the family. Lots
has been happening at Coolinda Park.
Pictured above is CP Linkz (WH Zmanor E x Lingxia bint Sepia). Photo credit Alicia Birch photography. More photos from this weekend to follow. Some news about our youngest Pure Polish stallion Walidayt (imp USA). Walidayt is currently at Dumaresq stud, Dunedoo. Deanna writes
Wally in the river !
I Have been back riding after NY
and Have been just getting Wal use to all the water and
muddy stuff around. But today was the day we had to tackle
the river - its finally low enough as well ! We had about 8
inches of rain so the river was quite high to say the lest -
we lost our bridge as well !
I had ridden him through after
Roy had lead him down to the river edge. Wal is still very
unsure about the "boggy bits" but
Thanks Deanna. Its good to see horses out working. Walidayts' foal crop has been outstanding this year. We have a colt and a filly that we will be showing at the foal shows. They have the most wonderful temperament like their father and when cantering around the paddock you could imagine riding for miles on them. We do have one Walidayt filly for sale. Please check the sales list for Waltzing Matilda. Now for some news from Noni Seagrim and CP Louisville.
Hi Carol,
Just a quick update on Lou, we did a 40km ride at
Woodstock on the 17th-18th of October, and proved once
again what a little trooper he is!
He was a bit exited at Pre-ride wich pushed his heart
rate right up, but was perfect during the ride. He had
less than 2 weeks training leading up to the ride, after
about 8 months off while I've been at school, but was
barely tried the next morning and never paused in his
brisk pace.
My dad has expressed an interest in starting endurance
and requested Louie as his mount for next year due to
his cute careful manner, and loving nature!!
So with some help from Dad, Louie will be qualified next
year and I may also apply to have him put on to the
Australian Squad, because as so many people have said
his is the "pocket rocket" and the "secret weapon" in my
paddock!!!
He is now bouncing around school, the most perky horse
in the region, excelling in jumping and not bad in
dressage either.
Thanks again for a wonderful little horse, he is
awesome!!!!
Cheers,
Noni Seagrim We love to hear from Noni and her 'pocket rocket'. I have a bit of different news for you. I'll let you read it first..... Hi there' We will soon be starting to wean our foals. Just waiting for the heat to away! The full brother to CP Linkz has been sold to Mark Tully from Armidale. Mark has previously purchased geldings from us and I am sure he will do really well with this bloke. Watching him in the paddock today and I had a 'double take' and thought 'which foal is that?' He trotted across the paddock and then stood stretching his long neck. A very handsome foal who looks like he will follow in his sisters footsteps. There is a new stallion at Coolinda Park. Manildra Rob Roy is a very successful Palomino pony stallion. He is the grandsire of our Arabian Ponies and is staying here for a while. He is having a holiday from his home at Brampton Pony Stud in Wagga. So far Roy has adopted a lamb as a friend and is really starting to enjoy having words with Zmanor over the fence. A cattle truck stopped in and Roy thought it was dropping off girls for him. He was so excited and telling everyone till a cow got off the truck. He turned and went up the other end of the paddock as I dont think she was pretty enough! Visitors are most welcome to come and see Roy. He may even grace the show ring again! As you can see we have been updating the web site and all the pages. It has been a slow process and is still going so please bear with me. It is a steep learning curve! Carole
Past Updates I have added some more mares and fillies to the sales list. Please contact us for more information. Also the geldings are available from weanling to rising 3yo. Very busy with farm work at the moment, shearing sheep, marking lambs and carting hay. That's including the normal horse work and everything else. Lionel is back home from hospital again but is taking things very easy. Busy times ahead! I have some news from Jacqui Langfield and her WH Zmanor E Arabian Pony filly, Birdwood Romanz. Romanz, or Lady as I call
her, is having a super year!
Congratulations Jacqui, Romanz is a beautiful filly and always
turned out immaculately. So WH Zmanor E has now sired two
coloured foals. Birdwood Romanz is from a Palomino
Birdwood pony mare and the latest is our buckskin Arabian Pony
colt CP Adasha Flazh, from our buckskin mare CP Aflikka Soot.
Its good to see different colours in the paddock! I have taken a
couple of photos of the Walidayt imp USA foal from CP Errika.
Her name will be CP Walencia. Only a short update today....till next time
Carole
Past Updates The
mares have now finished foaling. We have had some lovely
I have some news on sales. As you can see from the sales page some of the horses have new homes. CP Enya, CP Edon and CP Essencia will soon be going to their new home In Colac, Victoria. Karen Hendley from Jarrah Lodge and in Karen's own words - "I am so excited, and the bloodlines, oh my gosh, WOW." So Karen is very excited and is sure to have the mares out in the show ring as soon as possible. And of course we never know who else might be joining them! I have some news from Catherine Burgess who purchased the gelding CP Azpark (WH Zmanor E x CP Aflame). Dear Carole, Lionel and
Shannon 1st classic head It was a pleasure to be able to support the Arabian classes at Morongla show. It is so obvious how much Sparkie loves his Mum. Such a delight to see somebody so excited about winning with their beloved horse. Thats it for now. We are really busy making hay and harvesting at the moment and Lionel has been having heart problems so a short stay in hospital for him. Hopefully all is well now and although recovery takes time he will soon be out and about again on the tractor.
Carole
Past Updates
The mares have started foaling. Our first foal is a lovely colt from Lingxia bint Sepia. Sired by WH Zmanor E this bloke is for sale as a colt until he is weaned and then he will be gelded. He is pictured left with his mum. Our second foal is a black colt sired by Walidayt from CP Hello Dolly. I will be getting some photos tomorrow of him. He looks very special. The next one is due in a couple of days so hopefully there will be some more photos. The mares have started to sell and CP Kaliope and CP Xza Xza will soon be off to there new homes. These mares have been very successful brood mares for us and now have the opportunity to go on as brood mares for another stud. I've added some more photo's to the sales page and the foal pages. More to follow. Now for some sleep!!! Carole Past Updates SALE O! SALE O! We are having a big spring sale. Prices start at $500. Please have a look at the sales page. Mares, fillies and geldings. Many are now going for $1000 to $2000. Payment plans available and leasing can be discussed. Numbers need to be reduced. If you are looking to bring some proven polish bloodlines into your horses then now is the time. They are already here in Australia so no importation expenses to get the up to date polish breeding. As we are reducing our breeding numbers we would like to see others have the opportunity to incorporate the Polish bloodlines into your own breeding. Its the last day of winter and we are eagerly awaiting our new foals to hit the ground. Such an exciting time of the year....anxiety, sleep deprivation, no fingernails left all of the good stuff! 12 foals due, including one special Arabian Pony sired by Zmanor from Coolinda Park Aflame's grand-daughter, CP Aflikka Soot (Brampton Sinbad x CP Aflikka). Three Pure Polish foals are due by our Ganges PASB son Walidayt (Imp. USA). 3 Pure Polish by Zmanor and 1 full sibling to CP Linkz(WH Zmanor E x Lingxia bint Sepia), also 4 Pure Polish by Chronicle DV (Imp USA). On the Social scene, today we have a New Zealand friend and fellow breeder - Belinda Simonds arriving for a short holiday, and in this time we plan to visit Deanna and Roy of Dumaresque Stud and catch up with Walidayt (Imp USA) hoping we will be able to bring you some up to date photos from the visit We have recently had a most enjoyable visit with the girls from Eskdale Stud in Q'land, and they took lots of photos. Judith Perkins from Canberra is another visitor, a long time breeder and competitor in the Arabian Scene with much success over many years Judith has been showing a Zmanor (Imp USA) filly and she has won Supremes in Judith's capable hands. Clarizza has gone to her new home past Rockhampton Q'land, and we expect she will quickly endear herself to her new owners with her sweet and loving nature, a trait typical of the fillies sired by WH Zmanor E (Imp USA).The other two sired by him in Q'land, a filly CP Seattle Zue and the gelding CP Azhley both owned by Lynda and Danny Rowan, have both won Championships at A class level for the very happy owners, both have the ability and type to have very successful careers in the Show Ring at a high level.
Seattle Zue (WH Zmanor E x CP Chicago Lil) - full sibling due this season and will possibly be for sale.
Pictured below is Linda with CP Azhley (WH Zmanor E x CP
Aflikka) at the Triumph show in QLD where they won Champion
gelding. photo credit Tracey Bavington.
Please have a look at the horse list to see the mares and fillies that are available. Till next time Carole
Past Updates Finally the computer is fixed again, and I can get you some of the news that has been happening here. We have had a couple of sales with one mare being sold to New Zealand, 3 fillies to QLD and 1 to Victoria. We have also competed at 2 foal and youngstock shows and have horses competing in endurance with trainers. First the sales.....Coolinda Park Zweet Dreamz (WH Zmanor E x Dream) now has new owners in New Zealand. CP Zweet Dreamz wont be making the trip to NZ at this stage, she will be left at Coolinda Park to foal and then continue being bred to the polish stallions. This allows her foals to go to NZ in her place. CP Miss Ellie (Chronicle DV x Dancing in the Dark) and CP Seattle Zue (WH Zmanor E x CP Chicago Lil) have gone to their new home in Rockhampton, QLD. They have gone to live with Lynda and Danny and CP Azhley. CP Azhley competed at his first show and Lynda has sent her results:
Hello Carole,
This morning we took Azhly to
his first show - run by the Central Queensland Quarter Horse
Assoc. He went in the any other breed class. The only
gelding there - then went up against a mare (QH type) for
Champion the very Quarter Horse judge gave him Champion - He
was the better horse but I thought she would just go for the
QH type. So how is that for a start to his show
career. He was so beautifully behaved didn't shy at
the fluro orange flags or anything else - just strutted
around looking beautiful.
He did get quite a few comments
like - "Gee isn't he a good type for an Arabian" and
"he is so quiet and sensible" We were very proud of
him. Oh and yesterday afternoon we thought we
should give both Azhly and Zue a float lesson. Zue
walked straight on and then Azhly had a look but went on
without any argument. That is the first time he had
been on the float - he had only been on the truck to come
here about 1 year ago,Love Lynda
![]() That
is so good to hear. I have added a photo of Miss Ellie
with the saddle on for the first time too. Cant wait to
see her out under saddle. Another sale to Rockhampton is
Clarizza (WH Zmanor E x S Polska). Clarizza will be
going to Rockhampton very soon to another arabian enthusiast for
a show career and later brood mare. More details later.
CP Elizja (Chronicle x CP Enya) has been sold to Victoria
and will soon be gracing the showring down there.
I have a photo of CP Macgyver (Chronicle DV x Facincation) doing his first endurance ride at Tumburumba. He completed the ride successfully and is now training for his next one.
Walidayt imp USA was taken to his first show with Deanna of Dumaresq stud. Deanna has been riding Walidayt and decided to take him out. Walidayt won his class and then went on to win Champion Stallion against lots of pony stallions.
Nicole from Ashton Park Arabians has sent of photo of the
weanling filly CP Arizona (WH Zmanor E x CP Aflight).
CP Aflight won the trot class at many shows including East Coast
and this filly has the combined trot of both her mother and
father. The photo speaks for itself!
I have added a new link on our links page. Its for Jim Findlay from Bomac Animal Health Pty Ltd. Jim writes:
Have
a look at there website and maybe try some of their products. Till next time I will leave you with a photo of our weanlings inspecting what we are doing. Going left to right there are 3 WH Zmanor E fillies and then 3 Walidayt fillies. Carole
