Our Open Day on Sunday 27th February was hugely successful.   Visitors met up with friends and  enjoyed a wonderful lunch prepared by chef John Findlay (prior owner of Gleaneagles Giorgio and now owner of Warrawee Intreeg).  He baked and glazed a ham and prepared homemade pate'  - set  the table beautifully -  there were huge baskets of strawberries and fresh peaches, nectarines and plums, a huge salad prepared by client Judi O'Neill and  barbeque cooked by family and wow the comments.

At 2 pm there was  a parade of Show and Sale horses headed off by Warrawee Grandee making an appearance by popular demand and he really loved the attention at his mature age.   Our gorgeous girls Warrawee Shakeera and Warrawee Maybee Madonna were paraded, and  the much decorated 2 y.o. Arabian Warmblood filly Warrawee Beyoncee owned by the Bissett family (sired by Royal Hit out of Australian National Champion Anglo Mare Warrawee Ashantee)  thrilled the crowd -  she  was recently awarded East Coast Arabian Warmblood Champion of Champions.  Her dam Ashantee's yearling filly by Jive Magic - Warrawee Sheeza Rockstar showed her huge movement.   

The 2 y.o. Arabian Warmblood Gelding Warrawee Reegal Hit (Royal Hit/Warrawee Glory Bee) owned by Meaghan Wright and Jess Henne was also paraded - he has been unbeaten in his age group and is the current  Classic and East Coast Champion Arabian Warmblood Gelding 2/3 years among  many other A Class wins.    

Classic and Summer Royal Melbourne Show winner Warrawee Intreeg  (Warrawee Deecor/Warrawee Amoree)  was shown by his handlers Romsey Park on behalf of John Findlay, and  the up and coming "star" (in his first outing RTEdgar Reserve Champion Rising Star Show Hunter Warrawee Breez  (Bandomol/Warrawee Amoree)  was ridden by his owner Rebecca Lewin.   Symarron's Darby by Warrawee Grandee, recent East Coast Champion Show Hunter was ridden by Jess Henne - a great spectacul and he was paraded in hand by Silvio Galea - what an awesome sight - such a powerful horse.

The Arabian Warmblood mare Warrawee Glory Bee was paraded with her Warrawee Deecor colt foal at foot Warrawee Masterpeece, Warrawee Luv Mee Too was paraded with her outstanding Arabian Warmblood filly by Deecor Warrawee Deecoration, and the Arabian Warmblood colt Warrawee Guccee by Warrawee Deecor now owned by Pernilla Butters of South Australia was paraded with his dam - A Class saddle winner Gleneagles Cicciolina by Warrawee Grandee . 

Our super young Anglo colt Warrawee Adageeo (Warrawee Bandanna/Adronica ASB)  was presented, and  the Royal Hit colt Warrawee Royal Decree from Warrawee Azuree, and the Grandee Anglo Gelding Warrawee Let's Partee among the 17 horses on the timetable.   

Our thanks must go in such a big way to the behind the scenes friends led by Rebecca Lewin who made the day such a memorable one - washing and plaiting horses and making sure they were so well presented  and paraded to such an exacting timetable - it really is a big task to get so many horses into an arena  in front of a crowd of people in an orderly manner.

It was a really lovely happy gathering of old friends and new where following the parade visitors had the opportunity to walk around the property to  view the horses of the stud in a relaxed setting.
