Kooringal Stud is situated midway between Sydney and Melbourne on the boundary of the Riverina and South West Slopes of NSW, 20 kilometres northeast of Wagga Wagga.
 
The property comprises an area of 1000 hectares (2500 acres) and has been in the care of the Lamont family since 1910.
 
Kooringal Stud has excellent facilities with forty doubled fenced paddocks surrounded by some 40,000 trees. Each paddock has an adjacent yard and is linked to 3 main sets of yards by a system of laneways, which enables the safe movement of all horses. The paddocks vary in size from 2 hectares to 60 hectares and are regularly sown down to pastures of Lucerne, Clover and Phalaris.

Kooringal Stud is managed by the Lamont family (Stuart and Penny pictured) and is very fortunate to have a band of experienced and dedicated staff members to assist with the management and day to day running of the Stud.

The staff members include Angus Lamont. Angus returns to Kooringal this year after successfully completing an equine business management course at Marcus Oldham College followed by a twelve month stint at Landwades stud in England and Staffordstown in Ireland. Angus will be involved in all aspects of the business.

Jacqui Coghlan is entering her third stud season at Kooringal as stud office manager and her duties also include the feeding and checking of weanlings, yearlings and spellers.

Tim Forster remains at Kooringal for this season having spent many years abroad and within Australia working with Equestrian horses. Tim spent several years at Kooringal when he first graduated from Charles Sturt University. Tim will manage the four stallions and the breeding programme.

Debbie Berzins will do the bulk of the foaling again this season having also done the previous three seasons at Kooringal.

Julie and Peter Cowell continue to work with us at Kooringal and are responsible for the education and handling of foals, weanlings and yearlings. They have extensive experience in the equine industry both having travelled overseas and between them notched up about 15 years with us at Kooringal.

Stuart continues his “hands on” management, overseeing and working closely with all facets of the breeding and rearing of horses at Kooringal Stud. Dedication and communication is vital and we believe we have a unique working relationship at Kooringal and welcome you to visit by arrangement.
