Thankyou for that info - I now have a starting point.

parlo: thanks, but that page is just a list of the American families

The most renowned early thoroughbred from this family was Pierre Lorillard's, Duke of Magenta (1875), who won the Belmont and Preakness Stakes, and was generally regarded as the best three-year-old of his year. Most of the better present day performers descend through the conduit mares, Arrowshaft (1906), or Grasp (1913). Other notable runners are Faireno (1929) who won the Belmont, Jewel's Reward (1955) Wood Memorial, Lady Vi-E (1967) Kentucky Oaks, Regent Miss (1978) Canadian Oaks, and Deputy Governor (1984) Eddie Read Handicap. There have also been several European stakes winners from the family. The stallion Foxtrail (1990) stands in Canada.

there's some very good information. Whether it's accurate or not, I wouldn't know, but there's been no reason to doubt.
