No background ponies are related, not even the ones that partecipated together in the sisterhooves social. (as the actual race was'nt the episode's focus. Or else they'd have made up 4 sister sets just for the episode. Like how they made up Thunderlane and Rumble and Flitter and Cloudchaser and Snowflake for the episodes where they appeared, and also they brought Blossomforth in the show.) 

The general consensus seems like that they just... exist.

Oh and that the special "Apple Family" bg ponies are all somehow related to AJ, but stuff like who is or is'nt an Apple, who is more directly related to who, who married into the family and who did'nt, if the reunions contain in-law, how many generations the family is spread on, if Aunt Applesauce and Apple Rose are actually Granny Smith's aunt and first cousin respectively or just happen to be an aunt and a cousin of other people in the Apple family, if Granny Smith is called that due to being the Apple Trio's grandma or her parents just named her that at birth, or if she's their maternal or paternal grandmother.

They just exist to fill crowd scenes...
