Sire: K.B. Etoile de Lumiere’s sire is the ZfdP, Oldenburg & SHB(GB) graded KWPN stallion Sambertino.  Sambertino has competed to Advanced dressage producing some of the most successful competing Dressage horses in the UK as well as Europe. He has also won Silver and Bronze medals at the World Paralympic Dressage Championships and evented to 1* with a junior rider. Samertino is a son of the renown coloured sire Samber who was the first coloured stallion to be approved by the KWPN.

Dam: His dam K.B. Etoile Filante was home produced by the home bred Stallion K.B. Arc-en–ciel. K.B. Etoile Filante was competed to Elementary Championship level before having her competition career cut short by fracturing a fetlock in the field. She was subsequently graded with the Sport Horse Breeding Society of GB.

Damsire: K.B. Arc-en-ciel competed to Prix St George having qualified at all levels from Novice to Advanced Championships. K.B. Arc-en-ceil was by the legendry Stallion Atlantus, one of the foundation stallions for the breeding of warmbloods in the UK. K.B. Arc-en-ciel was acknowledged as one of Atlantus most notable progeny and was also ranked 6th and 8th out of the top ten stallions in the country for competing Dressage sires foaled during or after 1989.
