PALADIN'S FIVE WINNERS

Opportunity, they say, makes the man; it certainly makes the thoroughbred stallion. More fortunately: placed throughout his career, Paladin might easily have made a big name for himself. The death of Mr. J. i\ Buchanan, who imported him from England, made a big difference to him. However, he was well in the limelight at the Canterbury Jockey Club's Meeting early in the week, for his progeny won five races, and they were also twice second and once third. His winners were Tauramai, i Palmary, Chidden, Linguist, and Patrole. After Paladin, the sire who did best at Riccarton was Chief Ruler, with two wins, scored by Princess Doreen and Joyous. Pink Coat, Posterity, Air Balloon, Balboa, Lord Warden, Limond, Bernard, Rosenor, and Silverado' each had one winner. Paper Money was the most unlucky sire at the meeting, for though his progeny failed to gain a win they were in second place five times. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.
