One is a bay yearling colt by Obliterate (son of Tracery) from Royal Pearl, a half-sister to Eastern Monarch, winner of the St. Leger, and, tnerefore, comes from the same family as Galtee More and Ard Patrick.

The third is First Away, a three-year-old chestnut filly by Stedfast (sire of The Night Patrol) from a mare by Neil Gow, who traces back to St. Simon's sister, Angelica.
