Taffolet Barb is also called Taffolet (or Morocco Barb) in the General Stud Book, giving rise to speculation that he was the same horse as the Fairfax Morocco Barb or some of the earlier Morocco Barbs kept at the royal stud at Tutbury.

However, he had two offspring whose dates of birth are either known or have been estimated. Queen Anne's Mustard was born in 1707 and Honeycomb Punch ran in 1699, the latter leading C. M. Prior to estimate his year of birth at circa 1692. Thus, if the Taffolet Barb was imported he must have arrived prior to 1692. It seems probable that by the time of his purchase for stud he would have established a reputation, and so of necessity would have been at least five years old at that time. If his year of birth is estimated at circa 1685, he would then have sired Honeycomb Punch when seven years old, and Mustard when twenty-two years old, which seems a reasonable span for a stud career. Even if his date of birth is estimated at ten years earlier, he would have been born too late to be considered identical with the Fairfax Morocco Barb or the other known Morocco Barbs.

Toru Shirai, in Family Tables of Racehorses, estimates the year of birth for Honeycomb Punch, son of the Taffolet Barb, at 1684, which would be improbable for a horse running in 1699, and it seems likely that this a casual mistake made in assigning the date to the son rather than the sire.

Notable Offspring
Honeycomb Punch (c. c1692), when owned by Sir George Warburton, won a four mile match worth £300 at Newmarket in April of 1699. He was probably acquired by Lord Godolphin at some point in 1699, as in a letter from Lord Godolphin to Lord Lonsdale, written in 1699, Godolphin offers Honeycomb Punch to Lonsdale. He describes the horse as "a perfect good horse, and of a competent speed, gott by a Barb, and extreamly well shaped and very well limbed" [History of the Racing Calendar and Stud Book, 14]. There is no record of whether Lord Lonsdale accepted the horse. In the stud, the only known offspring of Honeycomb Punch is Spark (c. c1710), who sired the 2nd dam of Sampson (b.c. 1745 Blaze), and the 2nd dam of *Spark (c. c1733), who was sent to America where he was a useful stallion at the stud of Benjamin Tasker in Maryland.

An alternate version of the Newmarket match won by Honeycomb Punch is described in The Post Man, April 15/18, which states that the King watched a "Match between Honeycumpunch and a Horse of Sir George Warbleton's; they run 4 mile for £300 and although the odds ran 2 to 1 of Sir George's side, Honeycumpunch won the Match, but a great deal might be said in favour of Sir George's Horse, upon account of the new distemper" [History of Newmarket, iii, 225].

Sister to Honeycomb Punch (f.), one of the foundation mares of Family 33, a small family which nevertheless produced the Derby winner Serjeant (b.c. 1781 Eclipse) and the good stallions Dungannon (b.c. 1780 Eclipse), Locust (b.c. c1744 Crab) and Sloe (bl.c. 1740 Crab).

Mustard (gr.c. 1707), owned by Queen Anne he raced at York in 1713, where he gained a 5th place in Her Majesty's Gold Cup, won by Mr. Graeme's Champion (b.c. 1707 Harpur's Arabian).

Taffolet Barb Mare (f.), probably his best known offspring, a foundation mare of Family 1, 2nd dam of Grey Ramsden (gr.c. 1704 Grey Hautboy), and 3rd dam of Bonny Lass (b.f. 1723 Bay Bolton), taproot mare of Family 1-a. Taffolet Barb Mare was also 5th dam of Old Snap (bl.c. 1750 Snip), three times a Champion Sire.
