The list embraces a couple of four-year-olds, three three-year-olds and one two-year- old.

Following are the three-year-olds: l Bay filly, by Master Fox — Sewenda. Bay filly, by Master Fox— Chesney Lass. Bay filly, by Master Fox — Chesney Lady. The two-year-old is a brown gelding by Master Fox — Hug Me.
