The
Irish Draught and Irish Draught Sport Horse stallion is so
rare that stallion owners have tremendous responsibility to
preserve all that is great about the breed. His confirmation,
movement and athleticism along with how he is inspected, campaigned
and promoted, all has direct and exponential influence over
possible generation loss. This means that an incorrect stallion
that is heavily promoted and chosen simply for low stud fees
or geographic proximity can significantly detriment the quality
of the breed itself for many future generations.
For
this reason, we at BenMar Farm have been extremely careful
with our choices of stallion prospects. To meet the various
needs of the equestrian community, we will stand a purebred
Irish Draught as well as an Irish Sport Horse (RID X TB)
upon their respective approvals. Both of our beautiful stallion
prospects are confirmationally specific to breed type, exceptional
movers and full of presence. Most importantly, however,
they both promise to be upper level performers, able to
proudly represent our special breed world-wide. We feel
truly blessed to have this rare opportunity.
