Star Shoot was a five-time American champion broodmare sire, and Daylight Saving was one of the reasons why. She was the dam of four stakes winners and left a lasting legacy in the form of her daughter One Hour, who continued the family in fine style.

Pedigree notes
Daylight Saving is outcrossed through five generations. She is a half sister to stakes winner Tetley (by Ormondale).
Daylight Saving was produced from Tea Enough, a half sister to the top Midwestern stakes winner Dick Welles (by King Eric), 1904 Lawrence Realization winner and two-time American champion Ort Wells (by King Eric), 1915 Tremont Stakes winner Tea Caddy (by Rock Sand) and minor stakes winners Security (by Sorcerer) and Toggery (by Rock Sand). The last-named mare is the dam of stakes winners Tailor Maid and Mlle.Dazie (both by Fair Play) and the second dam of 1930 American co-champion 2-year-old male Jamestown. Tea Enough is also a half sister to Tea Biscuit (by Rock Sand), dam of 1929 Saranac Handicap winner Hard Tack (by Man o' War).
Tea Enough and her siblings are out of Tea's Over (by Hanover), who was produced from the King Alfonso mare Tea Rose. The next dam in Daylight Saving's tail-female line, Tuberose, was sired by Virgil from the Glen Athol mare Buttercup, whose half sister Ivy Leaf (by Australian) produced 1879 American champion older male Bramble (by Bonnie Scotland). Buttercup's dam Bay Flower (by Lexington) is a full sister to four stakes winners including the high-class Preakness, generally considered the co-champion American older male of 1875.
