Looking at the pedigree of Royal Star, we see she carries 25% of Arab breeding through her sire Craven Cyrus. Craven Cyrus has had an influence on the breed, notably in section A also through his daughter Wentworth Grey Dapples (Clan Dana, Clan Dubail), but also through his son Craven Greylight and grandson Craven Daylight.

 

Royal Star left offspring up to age 21:

 

Excelsior Prydferth made her mark on the breed via her daughter Excelsior Siani, who is dam of Nebo Siani. As such, she started off a line of section "C" ponies of world fame, such as Nebo Bouncer. Nebo Bouncer has topped the sire ratings for section C on multiple occasions.

 Another daughter of Prydferth, Excelsior Salome stayed at Excelsior, her great granddaughter was named Excelsior Prydfert (again). Her granddaughter, Excelsior Mali went to Llanarth stud.

 

The famous mare Withof Shana, at Perlhof stud in Belgium also comes out of the Excelsior Salome line.
