Stud Principal, Leanne Williams first became enthused about the Clydesdale cross in her first year with Avoca Black Saint.  The handsome black gelding demonstrated all of the most desirable traits of a good dressage horse ... very early on in his schooling.  A cool willing temperament and faultless rhythm along with the strength to carry his weight on his hindquarters - an absolute must, as the work progresses.  Avoca Black Saint is half Thoroughbred and half Clydesdale
by Delamere out of Gravanne Rose

Leanne and Avoca Black Saint have taken the Australian Dressage scene by storm having recently placed second at their first Grand Prix start.  He is scoring very good marks for his wonderful Piaffe/Passage.  They are on the Victorian Dressage Squad.  Black Saint is a testament to the qualities that Leanne holds dear!

With this special insight to breeding "what most riders are looking for" Leanne took the opportunity to purchase Avoca Cardinal who is out of the dam of Avoca Black Saint.   The young stallion as fulfilled her most optimistic  expectations ...  as an accomplished dressage horse, having won the Victorian Dressage Club's Michael Lee Trophy for the best Novice horse in the 1999 - 2000 Dressage Season. 

At stud, Avoca Cardinal has produced a number of lovely youngsters - the oldest being four year olds.  Leanne's confidence in the bloodlines has been well rewarded with the first few crops being everything she had hoped for.  Cardinal is producing beautiful bay's of the lighter, elegant type,   and many with flashy white markings.  She has not been able to produce enough foals to keep up to the demand from her friends and pupils. 

Avoca Cardinal is now standing to outside mares - so you too can produce a foal like one of the ones in the pictures below.   All mares are artificially inseminated at Avoca Park.
