TO STAND THIS SEASON AT ELLERSLIE, PATUTAHI. HB Ento™ Ußhbrea “ derringer >” By Musket out of Rosali. Derringer is a handsome dark brown horse, six years old, standing 15.3, and possessing remarkable symmetry, and has proved himself one of the very best of Musket’s sons, as his record on the turf clearly shows. As a two year old he won the Nursery Handicap in 1 m. 18sec. beating Rosebud and Foul Shot. His other performances at that age are remarkable, as his colors were only lowered by such flyers as Welcome Jack, Thunderbolt, and Alpine Rose. At three years, he won the Stud Company’s Sire Produce Stakes with Bst. lOlbs., doing the one and a half miles in 2.40|. His other performances are especially notable, as at Dunedin, Necklace (his stable companion) just managed to beat him twice; Waitiri at Hawke’s Bay and Auckland scored hard won victories, and in every other race Derringer was equally prominent. At two, three, and four year’s Derringer started twenty five times, being placed sixteen times, winning twice, being second nine times, and third five times. A glance at the extended pedigree appended will show that the strains of blood to be met with in Derringer are not to be surpassed, the names of such mighty wonders as West Australian, Mallendon, The Premier, Pantaloon, Sir Hercules, Irish Birdcatcher and others being prominent. _ .
