He has been a most successful sire in England, and bis son Peregrine won the 2000 guineas stakes (wort h about £.')000) and was'only beaten by a head for the Derby and tvas sold for T'oOO guineas. It is no looking tit aristocratic breeding, grand appearance and good performances, if Vasco does not succeed with real good mares in begetting racehorses equal to any that have ever graced a racecourse. Limited to 20 approved mares at 10 guineas each.

He also won many races in France, and the sporting correspondent of tho London Standard pronounced him the very best steeplechaser as v o-ycarold. Gladiatcur is also grandsirc of Sussex, Sting and other wonderful performers. The performances of Sussex prove him to be one of the best horses ever bred in Australia: it is needless to enumerate tho number of his victories, except the Grand National Steeplechase of July, 1 SSI, carrying top weight last lib. Sting avou the Ilawkesbury Grand Handicap, carrying Bst, doing the lv,- mile in 2 mins. -O-J sec, the fastest time on record.

TO STAND THIS SEASON AT RIVERSLEA. .'"%, Svfi&h T]ie Thoroughbred g, —Entire Horse— Ft i¥w n p A w A - Opawa, by Ravens worth, out of Fairy by Glaiicus—Spray by Donizetti—Lady Ann by AVhisker—Ravenswortb by Touchstone, etc. It will be seen by reference to the above pedigree that Opawa is bred the right way for both pace and power, having on the sire's side tho grand AVhalcbonc, AVaxy and Pantaloon strains, whilst on his dam's side he boasts as equally illustrious line of ancestry. As a racehorse Opawa proved himself a worthy descendant of his high lineage, having won some of the best contested races on this coast, giving lumps of weight to his opponents. As a three-year-old, after standing tho season, lie ran two weight-for-age races at Blenheim. As a four-year-old, after standing the season, he won the AVanganui Stakes, .£BO, weightfor age, beating Folly, Black Eagle, Satellite, Tambourini, and Maid of tho Mill. The next day he came out again, and won tho AV.J.C. Handicap, of £170, carrying ost tilb, beating nine others, including Tambourini, Black Eagle, and Maori AVeed. In the same month, at _'aranaki, he won the Cup of £50, weight for age, two miles, beating Tambourini after a splendid struggle. The same day, carrying Ost 21b, he won the Ladies' Purse, beating Tambourini, Resolution, and Camelia. The next clay Opawa placed the T.J.C. Handicap, £100, to his credit, carrying Sst lib, and then finished the day by winning the Railway Stakes in a canter. The following year he again won the W.J.C.- Handicap, Ost 71b, and AVanganui Stakes, weight for age. Opawa also won ■several other well-contested races. _ It will be seen, therefore, that Opawa is well .voi'thy of the attention of breeders, his icdigrce being of the highest strains of yinning blood, and his performances un- . jcnialled on this side of tho world. He is : is sound as the day he was foaled, and : jossesses a constitution of unsurpassed exicllonce. His stock have turned out well, ■ is his first season's fouls furnished Don- .
