Silveroak Deerhunter is a 2025 colt foal bred at Silveroak Irish Draught Stud.

To say that this foal is exceptional would be an understatement. Hunter is the calmest, most sensible and probably the kindest foal that I have ever known. He loves people and he loves fuss and attention, and he is very well handled.

Hunter is beautifully bred from some of the very rarest of Irish Draught bloodlines. His dam was bought from a private stud in Ireland, directly from her breeder. She is also an exceptionally quiet and kind mare, and she comes from some of the very best bloodlines including Powerswood Gladiator (grandson of Ben Purple) and Blue Champion. Hunters sire was carefully chosen for his type and also his very rare and beautiful breeding.

Hunter has excellent confirmation. He is correct and straight and he has extremely good bone. His sire is 15.1hh and his dam is just a smidge over 15.2hh. He should hopefully stay quite small and as such be a very good potential show cob or small Hunter. To find a purebred Irish Draught of this type and size is literally like hens teeth. It is very rare.

I am quite sure that this young foal will make an exceptional show horse of Hoys standard. However he would also be a perfect all rounder for someone wanting a smaller but good, solid Irish Draught.

I bred Hunter hoping for a filly to keep. I have his full brother here at the stud, due to his quality and type he is being retained as a potential stallion but sadly I can’t keep both. The dam and full brother can be seen here at the stud.

Hunter has been raised carefully and placed on a good worming programme. He has not been over fed with hard feed to ensure that his joints are not pushed and he is an absolute pleasure to deal with in every way.

He is available to a kind and permanent home
We breed quality and very kind foals here at Silveroak with the intentions of finding them a home for life. He will be very easy to deal with and he will be someone’s very best friend.
