STANDING at Corlougharoo Stud, Newbliss, Co Monaghan, the eye-catching grey Irish Draught performance stallion Darragh Moylough Vision, has proved a real addition to breeders, bringing a wonderful pedigree, temperament and athleticism to the table.

Bred, owned and standing with renowned Irish Draught breeder Edwin McLoughlin, who also bred the renowned Irish Draughts stallions Classic Vision and Supreme Ginger, breeders will also benefit from the McLoughlins’ wealth of knowledge and decades of careful line selection.

As his impressive performance record at 1.30m shows, Darragh Moylough Vision is a stallion with proven jump, earning him the Gold classification in the Irish Draught Stallion Register and he is also the son of Gold Merit stallions on both sides of a glittering pedigree, with no in-breeding going back five generations.

Darragh Moylough Vision is by the Class 1 Gold Merit Grade A show jumping Irish Draught sire Moylough Bouncer (by Grange Bouncer), his damsire Classic Vision, is also a Class 2 Gold Merit Grade A show jumping Registered Irish Draught sire.

Classic Vision also holds a Silver Merit for eventing and a Bronze Merit for showing, making him a wonderful selection in any broodmare line.

Classic Vision’s very special dam, Lady Glen, jumped at international level, producing two international showjumpers in ISH Midnight Call and Classic Vision himself.

She also produced the Class 1 broodmare Darragh Vision who was competed for one season before being retired for breeding. She was also Supreme Champion Broodmare at Balmoral in 2005.

Rider William Anderson produced Darragh Moylough Vision throughout his competitive career, rising the talented stallion steadily through the ranks. The stallion is quick and nimble against the clock. His performance record shows that, at Cavan Equestrian Centre, he bested 90 starters in a 1.20m class, recording the fastest time by two seconds, only bettered by three of the 29 Warmblood horses following. He also won a 1.30m Grand Prix at Kernan’s Equestrian Centre. He is now a Grade 1 show jumper who combines his show jumping career with live cover duties at Corlougharoo Stud.

Darragh Moylough Vision stamps his stock strongly, producing good-looking, modern type Draughts when crossed with Irish Draught mares. His fillies presented for inspection to the Irish Draught Studbook are being granted full approval status. When crossed with sport horse mares, Darragh Moylough Vision brings topline, bone, and a wonderful temperament into his progeny, making them very trainable and suitable to the leisure market.

When presented for inspection in 2013, Darragh Moylough Vision was the only Irish Draught sire fully approved on the day and earned a round of applause from the spectators gathered for his spectacular jumping. His pedigree is a true stallion’s pedigree, referencing all of the great names of the 20 years in the Irish Draught Studbook including legendary producers of show jumpers and sires King of Diamond and his son Flagmount Diamond as well of three of the foundation sires of the modern Irish Draught in Laughton, Pride of Tomes and Ginger Dick. Pride of Shaunlara is a must-have on any Irish Draught broodmare’s page while the presence of Sky Lark, Prospect Pride and Grey Macha speaks volumes for itself.
