Breeding Philosophy
We aim to breed athletic, conformationally sound, attractive horses who are able to represent the Irish Sport Horse Studbook in both Showjumping and Eventing at International Grand Prix and Championship level or the highest levels of competition their riders are comfortable competing at.
We believe in genetic turnaround as being a necessary component for the development of the herd and therefore we aim to breed from the fillies we retain for breeding as three year olds before allowing them to enter competition as five year olds. We aim to be the most successful stud that we can be. We will not base this on the numbers of horses we breed as we aim to produce quality over quantity and to keep our numbers low. Therefore it is our goal to have the highest percentile of horses we breed compete successfully on either an International level or the upper tier of the National circuit. |
