Australian Stock Horses purpose bred for polo. Also successful in polocrosse, eventing, showjumping, work and leisure.

Bar Nine Dot Sporting Horses

Bar Nine Dot Sporting Horses is our family owned and operated Polo Pony and Australian Stock Horse stud situated on the beef cattle property, "Glenaladale", Pine Ridge, via Quirindi NSW. 

Each year we actively breed, train and campaign our own progeny with primary purpose for the polo field, as this is our family's equine sport.  However, we also have Bar Nine Dot horses successfully represented in other disciplines such as polocrosse, show jumping, eventing, station work, pony club or just leisure.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT: To consistently breed a high quality sporting horse using tried and proven bloodlines. To educate and train that horse to its ability in the most suitable discipline in which we believe it will succeed.  To market and find placement for that horse with a rider that will form the most successful partnership possible.

To stay true to the Bar Nine Dot Sporting Horses Mission Statement there are some objectives we aim to achieve.  These are, but not limited to:

1. Utilising the high sporting ability of our foundation mares and perpetuating those female bloodlines in our breeding program.  Thus, establishing  'lines' or 'families' that today show consistency in type, temperament and ability within their own line.
   
   
2. Enhancing our breed through stallion selection; reference to conformation and type as well as ancestral bloodlines that may complement our female lines.
   
   
3. Recognise and harness new opportunities as they present themselves; ones that will enable us to continue our mission into the future.
