Rusky Fisher, Dotagain, Camogie, Tanga, Knight, and some young horses that are not named yet. Some of them are steeplechasers others are hurdlers and other flat racers.
The horses while in the stables wear a sheet. They are fed three times a day. For their feed they get oats, chopped hay and flaxseed. They are exercised for two hours every day. They are cleaned twice every day and in the evening Mr Walker goes round and looks at them.
The stables are white washed and tarred inside every year and kept very clean.
