From their website, http://combefarmarabians.com: If there was one horse who could change peoples opinion of arabians this horse did. He had the most perfect temperament ridden by children, loved by all and had amazing looks. The Prince of Orange made a positive impact on you always a joy to work with. The Prince of Orange was an outstanding sire with his daughter Grey Woodnymph being British National Champion. We continue his line with his daughter Lady Amy and his Grand daughter Anastasja at the stud today. Oranges as he is known was one of Michael’s first Arabian horses. In his day he won many prizes including once standing above the great El Shaklan. He was also the cover model for the second edition printing of Patricia Leitch's Jinny series of pony books, starring Arabian mare Shantih and the preteen girl who loves her.
