The Mares

The success of Blackall Park Stud is due not only to Daley K but in equal part to the wonderful group of mares that came originally from Alec McIntosh. Most of these mares were by Balmoral Boy . From these mares daughters have been retained which are now producing performing horses of even higher quality . Also more recently some well known performing mares have been introduced including several wonderful thoroughbreds.
