SEA The Stars is now well established as one of the world’s top stallions, with 59 stakes winners from his first seven crops, 12 of which have been successful in Group 1 events.

In 2019 his son Crystal Ocean was rated the best older horse in the world, jointly with Arc hero Waldgeist whom he defeated in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot, while Stradivarius was the world’s champion stayer after his second Ascot Gold Cup success. Sea Of Class and Star Catcher, both daughters of Sea The Stars, are the two most recent Irish Oaks heroines.
