stallions TO STAND THIS SEASON AT TAEADALE. The Fashionably-bred and Very Superior Thoroughbred Horse pi SO AT OB I US. ' JKr^ s beautiful and stout . bred .saiANHMfcn* horse is a dark brown, with Dlavk ] points, stands about 16 hands 2 inchos high, Ihis whole contour being very handsome, powerful,land , has a neat expressive head, indicative of a good , temper, which he possesses, his neck is long and , muscular, with windpipe well detached, his shoulders are deep and well laid back, and good ; enough for anything. , Traeucer (sire of Piscatorious), a recollection of 1 whose name will never die while racing exists, for his proireny have preyed themselves to be of the : very highest class, viz. : — Lurliuo, Calumny. Tern- ] pleton, Welcome Jack, Le Loup, Sir Modred ( (winning this year the Sydney Great Metropolitan). : Fisherman (sire o3 the dam of Piscatorious), as a , game and lasting horse may challege the best of the " days that are gone." Against the best horses J in England (aud always carrying top weight) in ; 1856, fie started in thirty-four races, and won twenty-three races ; in 1857, started thirty-six and . won twenty-three; in 1858, statted thirty-two and ! won twentu-one. Sometime after 1860 he was im- , ported to Australia, ai.d put to the stud, and as results have shown proved nlmself the Emperor ot i Stallions of the Southern Hemisphere, for bis descendants, both on the turf and at the stud, have proved themselves the beat horses in Australia. Fisherman is the sire and grand sire of the follow, ing wonders.— Sylvia (dam Martini Henry), Moribyrnong (the most fashionable sire in Australia), Angler (the best sire in Australia to-day). Onyx (Aucklaud Stud Company's mare), Lady Heron, The Fly, Bobinson Crusoe, Horatio, Goldsborough (this ia the coming sire of Australia), Hemlet, Cap-a-pie, Richmond, Progress, Cunnamnlla, Navigator, Dagmar, Ferryman, Fishook, Gasworks, ttegenhoe, Sardonyx, lolanthe, and Bargo (these two last mentioned horses were first and second in this I year's Hawkesbary Guineis). Two of the best mares owned by the Auckland Stud Company are descendants of Fisherman, ht. Simon, the best horse the world ever saw, runs back to the old Fisherman strain. Fanny Fisher (dam of Piscatorious) is the dam of some of the best horses that have ever trod the New Zealand turf. Coquette (imp., dam of Fanny Fisher), was first put to the stud in England, where her progeny proved themselves real clippers. She was eventually imported to Australia, and became the dam and grand dam of same of Australia's best performers. Launoelot (siro of Coquette) was a grandly bred horse, being out of Banter, by Camel— Launcelot. Won the English St. JUeger, 1810. Fanny Fisher was the only Fisherman mare ever put to Traducer. This alone should make Piscatorious invaluable as a stud horse, and when two such renowned strains are blended together it only requires a few really firstclass mares to make Pißcatorious as famous at the stud as his sire and grand sire. Mr Walters (and whose opinion ought to be respected in reference to horseflesh) always spoke of this horse as the "future sire of New Zealand," and if shape and appearance go for anything he should be right, for he is the model of a racehorse, without a particle of lumber; and his blood for every.requisite— speed, rtoutness, running family on the sides of sire and dam, snch as cannot be surpassed. The following pedigree (were he alive) would make poor old Mr I'Anson's eyes glisten with delight, for it fairly bristles with England's best and purest blood : — g^j I Pantaloo^ gjg* " Sg S Pasquinade.sister Camel fi to Touchstone Banter 3 £ 8» | Blis,. brother to §£*£ | Epirus ffi of Orlando) d 2 <p ■ Hin ii Languid, sister to Cain "^ Languish Lydia oia od S o~* Bastard p « p,w Heron O U° Daughter of gl & §8 O 3) M.Hrt ——————— — ■ o "3 Bsq'S Sheet Anohor oa fej <j> g Mainbraco & S,S S'otf Baughterof 8| . 5 « Iwd Launcelotbrother Camel ►Sw^l *° Touchstone Bftnter I- I*3 1? <d S g .

MARTIN, Proprietor] TO STAND THIS SEASON AT BIVEBSLEA, The Thoroughbred Entire Horse alS^-' O p a w a > mlJll&*£frl By Bavensworth, out of J]lH^M&Jßms Fairy by Glaucus— Spray by DoniW 4 1 *r* zetti-Lady Ann by Whisker— ** i ■ ■ ■" Bavensworth by Touchstone, *o. It will be seen by reference to the above pedigree that Opawa is bred the right way for both pace and power, having on the sire's side the grand Whalebone, Waxy, and Pantaloon strains, whilst on his dam's side he boasts an equally illustrious line of ancestry. As a racehorse Opawa proved himself a worthy descendant of his high lineage, having won some of the best contested races on this Island, giving Inmps of weight to his opponents. As a three-year-old,' after standing the season, he ran two weight-for-age races at Blenheim. As a - four-year-old, after standing the season, he won the Wanganui Stakes, JBBo,weight-for-Bge, beatinu Folly, Black Eagle, Satellite, Tambourini, and Maid of the Mill. The next day he came out again, and won the W.J.C. Handicap, of £170, carrjin* Bst 31b, beating nine others, including Tambourini .Black Eagle, and Maori Weed. Ia the same month at Taranaki, he won the Cup of £50, weight-for-age, two miles, beating Tambourini, after a splendid struggle. The same day, carrying 9st 21b, he won the ladies' Purse, beating Tambourini, Besolu- • . tion, and Cornelia. The next day Opawa placed the T. J.C. Handicap, £100, to his credit, carrying Bst 41b, and then finished the day by winning the Bailway Stakes in a canter. The following year he again won the W.J.C. Handicap, 9st 71b, and Wanganui Stakes, weight-for-age. Opawa also won several other well contested races. It will be seen, therefore, that Opawa is well worthy the attention of breeders, bis pedigree being of the highest strains of winning blood, and his performances unequalled on this side of the world. He is as sound as the day he was foaled, and possesses a constitution of ' unsurpassed excellence. " Terms, £5 5s for each mare. Two or more as per agreement. Any mare not proving in foal will be served for half price next season. Due notice will be given when mares are stinted, and must then be removed, or a ohargo of 2s per week will be made.
