By glancing through the pedigree it will be seen that DANIEL O’RORKE is equally as well bred on his dam’s aide as on the sire’s. It will be seen tllatSledmere, Dan’s sire, is a grandson of Irish Birdcatcher, the grandsire of Stockwell which is alone sufficient to prove the 'excellent blood that courses through his veins. Tadmore, the sire of Brunette, Dan's dam, is also sire of Seclusion, dam of Hermit, the most celebrated sire in England. Brunette’s granddam, Birthday, is also granddatn of the celebrated horses, Stockham and Panic, the corner stones of the Australian Stud Book, they being the sires of the most cele brated horses bred in Australia, including Commotion, Wellington, Pell Mell, and several others. Brunett-, Dan's dam, was imported by Messrs Harris and Innis, along with Mermaid and Traducer, which has been proved to be the best blood that was ever imported to the colony.

Brunette has been admitted by competent judges to be one of . the best brood mares ever imported south of the Line. It may also be stated that he is the sire of Recluse, the most symmetrical two-year-old colt in the land, having also proved himself afirst class racehorse. In the Wanganui Sapling Stakes he . beat Adulation, Man Friday, Tartar, and five others. He also ran second to Prudence in the Nursery Handicap, he carrying 9st and Prudence 7st. Dan has proved himself a most brilliant race-horse, which his performances will show. He has also been a success at the Stud, being the sire of Sir George, winner of the Wanganui Cup of 600 guineas, in the quickest time it has been accomplished, and many other races ; also of Badsworth, Dan O’Connell, Holderness, Faust, Ironsides, Tramp, and Cicero, winner of the Oamaru Champagne Stakes of 1885 and Oamaru Derby, 18S6. He has also been successful in the prize ring, taking twelve first class prizes in Christchurch, Timarn, and other places against imported horses, and the Association’s prize for the best thoroughbred on the ground. His stock have realised good prices, being sold at from 500 to 700 guineas.
