Borambil Park: Our Story

Just a short drive west of the quaint townships of Quirindi and Willow Tree (near Tamworth), on the prolific Liverpool Plains food bowl, is home to Borambil Park.

Purchased by the Kelynack family in late 2019, the property comprises cultivation as well as prime breeding and fattening country, ideal for Angus cattle production.

“I remember saying to David when we arrived at the end of the drought… there’s absolutely nothing here, just sticks and stones, hundreds of roos and feral pigs… OMG what have we done?”

Two weeks later, the drought broke, and it's been raining ever since.

The property’s redevelopment commenced in 2020 by a team of highly reliable local contractors and has since included the complete rebuild of a full-sized timber post and rail cow horse arena, an undercover arena, associated horse paddocks, stallion paddocks, stabling facilities, as well as robust cattle fencing and significant pastoral improvement, all conducive to quarter horse breeding.

With panoramic views over the Liverpool Plains to the Great Dividing Range, Borambil Park Arena is a state-of-the-art outdoor timber post and rail arena, designed to host cutting horse events, featuring a high-quality sand base. It’s been constructed to American Reined Cow Horse (ARCHA) and National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) guidelines and specifications.

Borambil Park Cottage is located a kilometre south of Warrah Ridge Road and was built in the mid-19th century, now consisting of old ruins and a set of dilapidated stockyards. In the early 1900s, Borambil Park Homestead, a large federation bungalow-style residence, was commissioned to be built by the Saywell family on the northern side of the property, set on a spur high above the plains and was well known for hosting high society events of the day.

Prominent on the property now are dozens of koalas, deer, echidnas, foxes, as well as 2 wedge-tail eagles.

Bianca and David have 3 children, Will, Charlie, and Grace, who all love growing up and working on Borambil Park.

Borambil Pastoral Co. Australia operates an agribusiness specializing in Angus cattle production, focusing on the production of premier Angus and Wagyu X Angus F1 cattle for the Australian feedlot sector. 

Additionally, the company hosts Australia’s pre-eminent Quarter Horse breeding program. The Stud aims to breed versatile cow horses suitable for both the show ring and practical use. Our broodmares are meticulously selected for their performance and bloodlines, and are bred to top US and Australian sires, producing a line of horses that excel in cutting horse events, campdrafting, and other performance disciplines. Notable world-class cow horses like A Tale Of The Cat (US) and Aristo Tuff (Imp) form the foundation of Borambil Park's breeding program.
