If only the race records of her progeny are examined, Kerali would seem to be no more than a modestly successful European broodmare. Through her daughters' produce, however, she is the second dam of four champions in North America, a record very few mares based in the Western Hemisphere can boast.

Pedigree notes
Kerali's pedigree is outcrossed through five generations. She is a half sister to 1995 Nunthorpe Stakes (ENG-G1) winner So Factual (by Known Fact), to English Group 3 winner Bold Fact (by Known Fact) and to Group 3-placed listed stakes winner Field Dancer (by Northfields), second dam of French Group 3 winner Camporese and third dam of Group 1-placed French Group 3 winner Camprock.

Kerali and her siblings are out of 1977 Irish champion 2-year-old filly Sookera, a half sister to Mexican stakes winner Young Spirit (by Bold Bidder). Sookera, in turn, was produced from the winner Irule, whose full sister I Assume produced stakes winner Nile Empress (by Upper Nile). Irule is also a half sister to stakes winner I'll Be Around (by Isgala); to stakes-placed I'm a Pleasure (by What a Pleasure), dam of 1984 Jerome Handicap (USA-I) winner Is Your Pleasure (by Accipiter) and second dam of five stakes winners including multiple Brazilian Group 1 winner Little Baby Bear, 2000 Hollywood Starlet Stakes (USA-G1) winner I Believe in You, and Grade 3 winner First American (a good sire in Brazil); to I Encompass (by No Robbery), dam of Grade 3 winner I Enclose (by Cormorant) and stakes winner I Take All (by Imasmartee); and to I'm Worldly (by Dr. Fager), dam of 1984 Wood Memorial Invitational Handicap (USA-G1) winner Leroy S. (by Honest Pleasure).
Irule and her siblings were produced from the winning Round Table mare Iaround, a half sister to 1959 Paumonok Handicap winner Isendu (by Inyureye) and multiple stakes winner Ifabody (by Brookfield). Produced from the Heliopolis mare Itsabet, Iaround is also a half sister to Iaway (by Intent), dam of stakes winner Cracker Bon Bon (by Kirrary) and second dam of Grade 2 winner Peanut Butter Onit; to Is Certain (by No Robbery), dam of Grade 3 winner Surely Royal (by Young Emperor) and stakes winner In True Form (by Imasmartee); and to Ironically (by Intent), dam of multiple stakes winner Imsodear (by Chieftain) and second dam of 1975 American champion 2-year-old filly Dearly Precious and Grade 3 winners I'm On Top and Immense. Through the last-named mare, Ironically is the ancestress of 2000 European Horse of the Year and three-time American champion sire Giant's Causeway, of three-time Chilean champion sire Tumblebrutus, and of European Classic winners Marvellous, Gleneagles, and Joan of Arc.
