Winner of first prize as a two-year-old at , Ashburton m 1894, aho special prize for the best two-year old on the ground, and first prize, Ashburton, 1895. His dam, Fanny, is by Tribune, out of that well-known trotting mare Fan, and bred by M,r Cameron of Springfield. His sire, General Tracy, is full brother to Kentucky, being by Berlin (imported), dam Jenny Tracy (imported). Hiram Woodruff (that great authority on Trotting) drove Jenny Tracy a mile m 2.13J before she lefc America, and he always used to drive Berlin's full brother, Mambrino Dudley, and says m his book if ever there was a horse could trot a mile m two minutes, Mambrino Dudley could before seeing so much atud duty. It is thus evident that Kentucky and General Tracy contain the very best strains^of American trotting blood. Terms — Three Guineas per Mare ; Groomage 5b ; payable at first service.
