Mister Sam Nicker, stallion from the Garden station, came off in the late 1980’s as a mature stallion. A gentle beautiful horse.He lived in Tasmania. He sired several full and part Walers. Two of his offspring were Sage and Nancy both now in Victoria. Also he threw Matey (Shartan), Wally (Pindarri Rhythmn) and Arrellah Sprite (out of Tess). If anyone remembers more, or has photos, we’d love to see them thanks.
Mister Sam Nicker
Garden Station in Central Australia was one of the earliest horse breeding properties, mostly working types known for the slightly heavier, feathered-legged Trooper’s horse, but more refined than draft breeds and used for work, racing and the India trade. These horses started the process of establishing a Waler studbook in the mid 1980s, rescued from sale yards in Alice Springs where their destination was Peterborough Meatworks in SA.
We are gathering and preserving as much information as possible about our Waler horses. Please let us know if you know anything more about Mister, anecdotes and photos welcomed!
