Mary Helen Pearce, the owner of Eldarin Park stud, which for many years has been one of Victoria’s most prominent breeding establishments, has decided to retire from commercial breeding.

She will maintain an interest in the sport by breeding from a couple of broodmares.

Mary Helen and her former husband Bill Pearce established Eldarin Park after buying a 320-acre property near Pyramid Hill, 80 kilometres north of Bendigo, in April 1989. Murray Sinclair, who joined Eldarin Park in 1991, has been of immense help and support to Mary Helen over the years.
