Marcia on Australia<br />
Day with Ariga Park<br />
Attitude<br />
I recall saying to Helen, and for that matter I still say to<br />
this day: ‘I would be happy to take a bad one!’ (because I<br />
just don’t believe there is such a thing with this wonderful<br />
Morgan breed).<br />
Earlier last year I was offered the fantastic opportunity<br />
to go into partnership with Helen with her young colt,<br />
Ariga Park Tribute (who is the only foal in Australia out<br />
of Mt Tawonga Melody who was that very first Morgan<br />
that I laid eyes on). Tribute is now almost 2½ years old<br />
and is everything I imagined him to be. He is growing<br />
so fast and has the most loving personality. Nothing is<br />
a problem to him. I’ve led him out off other horses, laid<br />
over his back, long reined him all around the property ...<br />
and quite honestly ... he loves it.<br />
I reckon the Morgan breed is worth their weight in gold<br />
and I can see now why they become a family horse for<br />
life. Why on earth would you want to sell one once you<br />
got one<br />
our members may remember Nina and her sister Amy<br />
riding Wirraway Nefertiti at our shows and enjoying<br />
themselves with her and the big smiles all the adults<br />
had on their faces. Bronwyn Burcher and the girls came<br />
down to try Rienzi out before Christmas and then took<br />
him home for a trial after Boxing Day. Nina and Rienzi<br />
make a beautiful pairing.<br />
John has been busy starting Omar Rebel Rouser (Rienzi’s<br />
younger half-brother) under saddle and Omar Stepping<br />
Out to harness. Both boys are taking to the tasks set very<br />
well.<br />
And as for our boy Ariga Park Tribute, keep your eyes<br />
peeled – he will be standing at stud in the near future<br />
and will be out and about promoting what I believe is the<br />
breed of a lifetime! I am enclosing a couple of photos,<br />
one of yet another beautiful Morgan I had the pleasure of<br />
riding on Australia Day called Ariga Park Attitude, aka<br />
Dude! What a legend! He didn’t flinch one bit when I<br />
mounted and started swinging the Australian flag about.<br />
God I love these Morgans! (Everyone should have<br />
one!)”<br />
Here at Omar Morgans in Collector things are going<br />
beautifully, we have paddocks full of grass and the rain<br />
keeps coming. All the horses are enjoying the season.<br />
We are proud to announce that Omar Rienzi has found<br />
a new home with 13 year old Nina Hvejsel. Some of<br />
