Deer ID from pictures

I found these pictures on another forum, I think they are Woburn deer, I think I may know what they are but I am not 100 % tbh.

Any opinions ?

Honestly do not know myself, the pictures were 'poached' from another forum, but in my opinion:

#1: looks like a red but has spots and an eyebrow ridge similar to a sika though ---I'll go young red stag

#2: Looks like a red stag head but got a white arse and a body like a sika stag, but no white hock gland ----sika/red hybrid, or a Manchurian, they have big antlers don't they? Yeah, Manchuarian (possibly LOL).

#3: Looks like a Sika but head and posture reminds me of CWD,----sika calf but could be something more exotic ?

The more I look at pic 3 the more unsure I am, colour right for CWD but wrong (?) for Sika, too leggy for winter CWD ??? Dunno, easy answer would be CWD x sika hybrid (them 'ol sika stags put it around a bit dont they ?!?!)

I'll stick with my initial ID and say Sika calf
 
Going for -

1. Red Stag

2. Manchurian Sika Stag

3. Sika Calf - not confidant enough to say whether it's a Jap, Manchurian or Formosan without tasting it :D

Moose
 
You might get a clue here

I would agree with this, would narrow the sika calf guess by excluding Jap. Too pale a winter coat.
