Arna was the first filly bred at Roseglen Farm by Kennedy WE
Arna was broken in as a 5yo and was used as a pony for my own children to ride. Incredibly quiet and quite beautiful, Arna is the image of her father, Kennedy. Due to the innate value of Kennedy broodmares, the decision was made to focus on breeding for the next few years before returning Arna to her saddle career.
Possessing three good paces, a great temperament, pretty face and a super size, Arna's first foal by Daily Dancer is due in November 2021.
Arna was the first filly bred in Australia out of a riding pony mare to be accepted into the Westphalian studbooks.

Her Dam
Kinsbrook Abbey Road was a multi-supreme winning Riding Pony mare. She won across multiple rings, part bred Arab, part bred welsh and riding pony ring. She was exceptional under saddle, but found her mojo at pony club with beginner riders. A true childrens pony, with talent to burn, she has taken many a beginner rider to lofty rewards.
