German term

nachwuchspferd

German to English Other Zoology Animals
Wie bereits im Vorjahr werden auch Pruefungen zum Championat und zum Cup fuer Nachwuchspferde geritten.

The text refers to a spring jumping and dressage Derby. I was just wondering whether there is a generic term for "Nachwuchspferde" or more suitable term than colts and fillies because I believe the aforementioned terms refer more to horse racing rather than show jumping/dressage. As I am not a horse specialist, any specialist knowledge would be appreciated.

two- through four-year olds

from my very limitied horse racing experience, I think they refer to the young horses at the beginning of a possible career just by their age. There are special events for two through 4 year-olds, after that, I think, they belong to the "grown-ups".



cf:
Highlight of the racefest are the Oct. 5 and 6 staging of the Mitra Cups which will be headlined by five 500,000-peso races, including the twin-bill Mitra Cup Juvenile Colts and Juvenile Fillies Championship for two-year-olds, the double-header Mitra Cup Three-Year-Old Colts and Three-Year-Old Fillies Championship and the Mitra Cup Classic for older horses.
