The 2023 maternity wing....



Continuing the success of the sports horse foals, 2023 saw the arrival of two more very special "WelshBlood" foals by the upcoming young dressage stallion Fire Kracka (by Fidertanz) who is already a multiple Double Regional Champion and multiple National Dressage Champion. In my opinion crossing Warmbloods with top class Welsh Section Ds is a match made in heaven, with both demonstrating exceptional length of rein, movement, power and class. Welsh Cobs are acclaimed as the best ride and drive in the World, and are athletic performance horses in their own right. I aim to combine the character, versatility, endurance and temperament of the welsh breeds with the height, balance, flexibility and tractability of the best warmblood lines. My objective is to breed smaller top quality sports horses that are beautiful uphill types with light-footed, elegant and powerful movement and suberb temperament and trainability. As with my welsh cob breeding, the stallion has been carefully selected to bring the very best to my breeding.

A very small selection of foals and youngstock may be offered for sale and expressions of interest are invited.

 

TS TESORO ("Zorro")  
Talgoed Trysori x Fire Kracka (WB)
British Warmblood/ Welsh partbred  

Trysori joined Taraco Stud in 2021 courtesy of her kind owner Gemma Kent and she is a delightful addition to the stud, specifically chosen to ensure bone, depth, movement and type in our sports horse breeding. This is an absolutely top class colt by Fire Kracka (double National Champion Dressage Stallion by Fidertanz). He is very balanced and uphill in all three paces, graceful and elegant in his movement, and has a lovely temperament like both his parents. With his athletic type, movement and breeding I have no doubt that he has the ability to excel in dressage or eventing.

TS TOP GUN ("Cracker")  
Taraco Madonna x Fire Kracka (WB)
British Warmblood/ Welsh partbred colt 

Absolutely stunning and upstanding smaller sports horse colt foal bred to perform. This colt has totally exceeded all expectations. He is by the young upcoming dressage stallion Fire Kracka (by Fidertanz) and out of Taraco Madonna who is sister to USA dressage and Weser-ems stallion Taraco Mourinho. More presence than he knows what to do with, amazing paces, great depth, front, length of rein and exceedingly confident he is sure to be a star in the future.

TARACO SHALIQA ("SASSY")  
Sydenham Japonica x Juliad the Artist
Welsh Section D filly foal  

Last to arrive was this exquisite and beautiful black filly by a lovely son of Monumental Mason. Her 21 year old dam, Sydenham Japonica by Llanarth Lord Nelson, was an unplanned addition to the stud who I bought her to keep her best friend Allenbrook Ffion company. Sassy has her mothers beautiful quality, kind but cheeky character, elegant and powerful movement and superb conformation. Very exciting filly for the future.
Foaled approx 4am, 13 June 2023

TARACO SPITFIRE  
Allenbrook Ffion x Juliad The Artist
Welsh Section D colt foal 

A lovely substantial welsh section D colt out of Allenbook Ffion (by Sydenham Dragon) who has joined Taraco Stud as an outcross mare and as part of the "WelshBlood" sports horse breeding plans. A really lovely quality mare, it is no surprise that her son has lovely front, great quality bone and feather, really powerful strong quarters and great action. He has a superb temperament and has the potential to make an excellent ridden or driven cob in the future.

 

Other foals

Established in 1998 I am proud to say that I have bred some wonderful ponies and cobs - despite only being a small stud I have bred countless champions as well as stallions that are producing champions both home and overseas. please click on the photo to see information on other foals I have bred.
