The Irish horse has made a tremendous impact at the upper levels of most International disciplines. The Irish Sport Horse Studbook has ranked first in the World Breeding Federation for Sport Horse (WBFSH) standings for Eventing for the past 9 consecutive years. Custom Made, David O’Connor’s Olympic gold medal winning mount, Mill Pearl, Joe Fargis’ international jumper and Olympic silver medallist, and Special Envoy, Nelson Pessoa’s long time successful jumper, are all recognizable international performance horses and they are all from Registered Irish Draught breeding. The Registered Irish Draught Horse is the foundation breed for such equine athletes. Both purebreds and partbreds alike are known for their performance superiority, intelligence, soundness and stamina. For a breed that has less than 3000 horses registered, the Registered Irish Draught seems to have made a sizeable impact in performance worldwide.
Oak Hill Farm, located in the heart of Virginia horse country, is the home of Bridon Irish Draughts, LLC, an established and successful breeding program focusing on the Registered Irish Draught Horse and Irish Draught Sport Horse. Owners Brianne and Brandy Sells are lifelong horse people who are considered some of the most knowledgeable about the Irish Draught in America. Our record of producing the best Irish horses in the country speaks for itself. We have bred, produced or imported over 45 RID’s or IDSH’s horses over the past 7 years. We have bred or produced numerous RID mares and a 3 RID stallions. Since the birth of our first purebred foal in 1999 we have won the IDHS(NA) National Foal Championship five times, as well as being Reserve Champion four times, with three different mares and four different stallions. Some breeders say they produce the best, we can prove it.
