Corrcullen was imported from Ireland as a two-year-old after an exhaustive search for a colt that would meet Bull Hill's breeding goals. Corrcullen, 17 hands with 9.5" of bone, had an undeniable presence, was conformationally correct, had three wonderful gaits and an excellent jumping technique. His temperament was pleasing, and he was a gentleman in every way.

Corrullen had more "Quality" as the Irish would say, and appeared more refined than many of the traditional Irish Draught stallions.

This was apparent, but without any loss of bone or joint size which is so desirable in the breed. Throughout his riding career Corrcullen proved his athletic prowess in the eventing disciplines as well as in the field, where he showed that he was an outstanding field hunter.
