Quality Irish Hunters for Jumpers, Event and Field. TSH is a small Irish Sport Horse breeding operation standing ISH stallion Taproot Dutch Diamond.

Taproot's goal is to breed sound, sane athletes to be competitive jumpers, event and first flight field hunters suited to the ambitious amateur rider. We breed for movement, jump and stamina to be competitive in the big rings. We use a combination of Irish Draught with Thoroughbred and 'blood' warmbloods to create an elegant, noble horse with the aesthetic and performance of a classic Irish hunter. TSH has limited youngstock for available for sale. If you are interested in one of our horses please let us know. Preference is given to show homes.

These horses crack me up!

Snuggle Bug Lazy Bones to Mach 10 in .005 seconds. He took the opportunity to show off his blood after a mini bath. The chubby dirt lot fool neighbors decided to join.

I’ll have to work on better video for his ad but enjoy this glimpse of Arete.

A few low quality photos of a high quality horse. Just wait until you see his canter video - JAW DROPPING!

Great job Kylie!

Prima sold on August 11th to a 14 y/o girl completely unstarted. She hadn’t been introduced to tack and logged only a few sessions on the lunge line. Today, Prima went to her first show!

These horses are so trainable 💓

Prima and Aspen are both by Taproot Prime. Arete (3), also by Prime will be coming to market once recovered from ✂️. I don’t expect he’ll last long.

We chose our lines so carefully, I’ll be happy to have them the next 50 years. Working with our 4th generation of Jezebel and finally, 2nd gen of Ahtractiv Starfire, Mystic Janie, Expecting and Penitence. Lovely mares with intrinsic athleticism and good character. To the future!
