Donwell TMH 12-70
from article--
In 1923, two Morgans started and two finished. Major S., a gelded son from Castor's short career at stud, was 5th.
In 1924, Major S again started and again finished 5th. The grade Morgan gelding Donwell, was a high second.
Gladstone TMH 12-70
From article--
In 1922, the U. S. Morgan Horse Farm again raided the Secretary of Agriculture's Washington stable for its entry in the Test. Gladstone arrived in Middlebury just in time for the haying season, most of which he raked, and to fill in on the carriage team for the depot trips. He was barely saddle broke when he began the final few weeks of conditioning, for a ride that would require him to carry well over 200 pounds three hundred miles. When the ride was over, he had placed second, with a condition score exactly equal to that of the winner, who had made it by a minute three time points. Gladstone's card read "no remarks. Sound as when started."

Castor TMH 12-70
foaled 1909, bred by U. S. Dept. of Ag. Morgan Horse Farm, VT
from the article w/the photo--
"Little, 800 lb Castor was the first Morgan to gain attention, on that first ride back in 1919. Then eleven years old, and handicapped by a badly saddleweary rider, Castor fell hard just short of the finish line, deeply lacerating one kneww. Despite the handicap of finishing lame, he placed a strong 6th, with the second best time record. [the ride was 300 miles, with each horse carrying 225 pounds, going an average of 60 miles per day for 5 days] ...Castor spend the winter with a pairmate drawing the Sec. of Ag.'s carriage about Washington DC. In the spring, somewhat underweight & overtrained, he went 7th on that year's ride. He spent a winter as the Forestor's mount in Middlebury and was still thin for the 1921 ride. He had a 5 day rail trip to the ride in New Jersey and placed 4th.
