Lucky Boy was sired by the Holsteiner stallion Lavall II in his first year standing at stud. Lavall II, a son of Landgraf I, has been, just like his brother Lavall I, very successful in German competition and breeding.

On his dam's side, he has the blood of the stallion Calypso I (Cor de la Bryere), through the Holsteiner mare Tramontana. Calypso I has been established as one of the great sires of dressage horses, as well as a sire of many international jumping horses. Among these are Calando (ridden by Björn Nagel) and Cabinett I (ridden by Dirk Schröder).
