In her first season under the stewardship of daughter Amy, Mandaley Pure Silk won Barastoc Runner Up Newcomer Large Pony of the Year 2006.

In her second season with Lauren on board, Pure Silk was crowned Grand Champion of Champions Ridden Exhibit at the Victorian Riding Pony Classic 2007 and then further wins with Bree Petrie including winning her novice pony class at Melbourne Royal 2008.

Wishing to retain this mare for breeding down the track, we have leased her to Molly and Linda Lord of Wollongong in New South Wales. Molly has already had much success with Silk and it's lovely to have a young rider on her again.

A beautiful liver chestnut thoroughbred mare, Dalma is the dam of our stunning chestnut filly Mandaley Mona Lisa by Fairley Rembrandt (dec).

We lost Dalma in 2008, but are thankful she produced one outstanding filly during our time with us; Mandaley Mona Lisa who we've had tremendous success with to date.

Kirreway Wave grey 14h, Riding Pony

Full sister to one of Australia’s most successful ponies of all time, Kirreway Xplorer (multi Royal Show Champion, Hoty/Grand National Winner etc.).

Wave has produced two lovely foals since being at Mandaley Stud and we hope to see them go on as super show ponies.

Biddy Bronze was a superb broodmare, producing top quality show ponies including Murrum Park Ringmaster, McConnell Park Masterpiece, Mandaley Royal Bronze and Mandaley Tobin Bronze.

We were saddened by the loss of Biddy Bronze but her offspring continue to do her proud in the show ring.

To continue Amy’s legacy, we acquired Biddy Bronze’s daughter, who is a full sister to our champion show pony McConnell Park Masterpiece and Murrum Park Ringmaster. The mare has produced a beautiful small pony by the lovely stallion Myscal Encore.
