Well what sort of information would you like?
One of them won the Kentucky Derby (is there a more lofty place in all things horse related?)
Most of them were unraced. The sire of what I assume is your horse won 6 races.

OK, thanks, now I have a little bit of a sense for what you might wish to know.
Bold Forbes won both the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes back in 1976. He was 3rd in the Preakness and missed winning the "Triple Crown" of American racing by 4 lengths.
His son St. Forbes was at one point a very promising horse who won 4 of his first 5 starts and had 6 wins and 3 seconds after a dozen trips to post.
I would suggest that there is some quality there (in St. Forbes).
Pecos Mission never raced and she was admittedly NOT much of a producer either. Three offspring and they made one start between them.
Mercury Vapor was unraced and had no registered foals.
Burned UP was a stakes winner and won 13 races and $51,500 back when money was money (foal of 1961).
I hope this somehow helps.
