PRICE'S TWO-YEAR-OLDS
When George Price was here last week for the yearling sales he remarked thnt lie had a strong loam of two-year-olds in his Kandwiek stable and that lie held a very high opinion of the New Zealandbred colt Homer. He also expected to produce another promising youngster in Fanfare very shortly. Fanfare had his first race at Hanchvick last kSaturday and ran third in the Widden Handicap. He is &. brown coll owned by Mr. ]fl: J. Watt, and he is by Brazen i'rom Three Chepis. His pedigree is interesting, to New Zealanders, his dam being by Tressady. from Flamnniln, by Vareo from Flambeau, by Stepniak from Firecross, by Petrol from Crossfire, by Goldsborough. Firecross was imported by Mr. J. F. Keid, and in addition to Flambeau, who was bred by Mr. J. B. Reid, she threw Cross Battery to Stepniak. Both these mares found their way to Australian studs, and Cross Battery became the dam of Artilleryman, one of the greatest three-pear-olds that Australia has seen.
