It is thought that Hunting Song may appear on the Arab-bred Register.

Quite clearly Mrs Muntz had a mare called Copperfinch in 1937, so Hunting Song would have been at Foxhams for a year or two, or even longer.
As in June 1946 she was owned by Miss C. Layton, my best guess is that, ‘Hunting Song was a hunter’ and, ‘hunted’ for some time before being registered as a mare.
