Black Beauty Characters

So, if the horses from Black Beauty had cutie marks, (or, as we called them back in the day, "brands", or "flank marks" in polite company, and if were just us Ponies, "ass art"), what would each character have?

Black Beauty - black gelding, half thoroughbred - I'm at a loss. Suggestions?

Rob Roy - black gelding, Beauty's older brother, half thoroughbred - Shield w/ Black MacGregor tartan pattern, almost certainly. Maybe crossed claymores, too.

Duchess - grey mare, BB and RR's mother, half thoroughbred - probably a tiara. There's a danger of her looking like some strange grown-up amalgam of Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon, though. Perhaps they grew up to become lovers, and like Hermaphroditus and Salmacis, were joined as one*. I can readily envision Silver Spoon roaring out, "HEAR ME, O GODS!".

Ginger - ginger chestnut mare, half thoroughbred - Fire. No doubt in my mind.

Merrylegs - grey pony gelding - Triskelion, with horse legs. This just seems right.

Peggy - bright dapple dun mare, dark mane and tail - Not sure. She had stubby legs, which caused her grief.

Rory - unspecified gelding - Not a clue. A nice horse who died young, in the proper Victorian tradition.

Captain - white gelding - infantry horn.

Hotspur - brown chestnut gelding - Tottenham cockerel, just for fun.

Justice - roan cob gelding - gavel? Kind of lame, but it's all I can think of.

Lizzie - bright bay mare, nearly thoroughbred - feather, or perhaps Derpy's bubbles.

Sir Oliver - brown chestnut hunter gelding - Not a clue
