TWO FOR COMMONWEALTH
(By Air Mail, from "The Post's" London
Representative.)
LONDON, January 16.
Le Grand Due, bred and owned by the Aga Khan, and who was third in the Derby to Mid-day Sun and won the New Stakes at Ascot, has been sold to Mr. W. H. Miller, the well-known Australian breeder.
By Blenheim, Le Grand Due is out of La Douairiere, by Spearmint. His three-parts brother, Bulandshah, by Blandfordj has made a great impression with the class of his winning offspring in New Zealand. He was sold by the BritiSh Bloodstock Agency. ' The same agency has also sent to Sydney the three-year-old colt Burhan Ali, by Umidwar out of Teresina, by Tracery from Blue Tit. The sale of another of the Aga Khan's horses was negotiated by the agency. This was Mahmoud's chestnut brother, Khan Bahadur. He has left Newmarket for Messrs. Mitchell's Collinstown Stud, Leixlip, County Kildare, where he will stand.
