That is a half Arab has half it's genes from an Arab. If he is bred to a non
Arab then the Arab contribution is 1/4. Ten generations later with breeding to
nonArabs, the Arab content is 1 in 1024 and twenty generations it would be 1 in
over a million

Course that's assuming that absolutely none of any of the other horses that were doing all this breeding had a speck of Arab blood in them either, just that very first one -  would have to be either the Adam or the Eve of all light horses.  Otherwise your example doesn't work.  Lif
