We are selling our Irish Stallion Taproot Prime. He would be an excellent addition to a crossbred program to breed heavy mares. OR, geld and have your dream competition partner! He was purpose bred to be used on 'traditional' heavier field hunter mares for eventing and show hunter foals but we are also using him with our Thoroughbred mares. He brings balance, uphill movement, active hind end, quality jump and immense presence to the breeding shed. Prime's pedigree is strong in versatile performance greats including; Now or Never M, Nimmerdor, Belisar, Salon and Pride of Shaunlara. If you are looking for a horse foal that can excel in several disciplines, Taproot Prime is your guy! Take a look at his jump video through the chute! He has an exceptional temperament and is very friendly. He lives at pasture with a few girlfriends to have as normal a lifestyle as we can give him. He's a smaller compact package with a medium frame that adds quality to a heavy mare but brings enough bone to not have a hippo on toothpicks! His first foal hit the ground late in the season 2020. He has had 6 foals with 2 due in 2024. Prime improved the dam's hip, added length of forearm and improved the stifle; all things generally needing improved in a heavier mare. All of the mares caught first cycle; excellent fertility! He is currently in process of being backed. While he has lived most of his life in a field with mares, he is far from feral. Prime ties really well, good for farrier and dentist and really loves to be groomed. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvJVWiLaVBg Price to increase with training.
