Anthony, Mark, and James are brothers. Anthony is the oldest, then Mark, then James.

 Also:
 Ronnie MacDonald, father of Brett MacDonald
 John MacDonald, brother of Ronnie


IMO:
 James Mac is the best of the 3 brothers, in racing & being a great human.  He is so unselfish & came up the right way. He was never pushed to get in over his head.

 All around A-1 guy
We don't need to race, it's the camaraderie & the bond with the horses that makes it special.

Curtis is the fourth brother.
He's the A/V wizard.
Has his own broadcasting company and takes care of all the COSA TV broadcasts I believe.

There are six brothers as far as I know. One is a step-brother technically.

Curtis and Lloyd are on the "technical" or video side of the business.

While might agree the James is the best driver. But then Mark was pretty damn good but very unlucky with accidents. James is not a good human. Ask his exwife

His ex wife would definitely have an unbiased opinion

 James is the best Colt sired by "The Big Fred"

 Their mother has worked in the harness racing industry for decades upon decades, still does.
 They are very grounded for how much success they've had.

 Couldn't say a bad thing about them.
