About Us
Breeders of Fine Irish Sport Horses
Taproot Sport Horses is located at historic Glade Valley Farm in Walkersville, Maryland. We are a selective Irish Sport breeding operation standing ISH stallions Taproot Prime and Silver Tax. 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.

“So... Mr. Mick went to his first horse show today... it was a local show... about an hour away... he loaded and hauled better than my seasoned show horse! He looked very handsome all cleaned up and braided... here are some of the judges comments...strong top line... lovely proportions... good angle to the shoulder... lovely overstride in walk... relaxed ground covering trot... super character and harmony with handler.. strong athleticism and super temperament for training in any discipline and up the levels! I am beyond over the moon in love with him! Just wanted to give you an update on the lovely boy you bred!”
