LORD OF THE ISLES TAM O'SHANTER To Stand this Season at Dunrt, Havelock, the following celebrated Sires— 4 £fe te^ rpHE Imported English . VpSa J- ThourghbredStalUon, JOL-VASOO DI (JAMA *. A rich bay brown, 16 hands on Bhortlegs, bred by Sir Joseph Hawley, got by Beadsman, winner of the Derby, out or Salamanca, by Student from Bravery, by Gameboy from Ennui (dam of English Saunterer, and grand dam of Anteros, sire of Canard, Louie, and Niagara), by Bay Middleton from Blue Devils, byVelocipede from Care, by Woeful from Recovery's dam. Vnsco di Gama won tho Maiden Plate at Ascot, ran thtrd for the Eurstbourne Slakes, and won the Rottingdean Nursery Handicap, nnd the Mollynoux Nursery Handicap, carrying top weight. Vasco dl Gama was considered a much superior horse to his own brother, Pero Gomez, bu6 owing to an accident which he mot with when two years old (too marks of which he carries now) caused hia early retirement from the turf. Pero Gomez, full brother to Vasco dl Gama, won the Middlo Park Plato, Newmarket stakos, Ascot Dorby, St Legor, Doncaster Stakes, Grand Duke Michael Stakes, and Koyal Stakes (in all abont £14,000). Ho has been a most successful sire in England, and his son Peregrine won the 2000 guineas stakes (worth about £5000), and was only beaten by a head for tho Derby, and was Bold for 7030 guineas. It ia no use lookintt at aristocratio breeding, grand appearance and good performances, v Vasco does not succeed with real good marcs In begetting racehorses equal to any that have ever graced a racecourse, Termß, 6 Kuinoaa each mnrp. Ztek^,^ lyVHElmported thorough* V^^iJJl •*- ° red Stallion GLADIATOE A beautiful golden chestnut, 15 hands 31n, bred in France by Count Lagrange got by that wonderfulgallopingmachineGladiateur, ■ who gained thctriple crown by winning the Two Thousand Guineas, Dorby, and St, Loger n 1863 ; dam Nuncia (also dam of Nemesis winner of the Metropolitan Stakes, Sydney doing the two miles in 2min 33sec, beating 15 others ; also dam of Messager, and of Victoire, who won tho Kingsbnry Opoti Steeplechase, carrying top weight, 12st 21b), _by Nuncio out of Fatima by Elis. Tho great success of Traducer as a sire was due probably lo the fact of his breeding being on both sides unlike that of any other sire in New Zealand, He was the" only horse by The Libel In the colonies, and on his dam's sido he possessed the blood of Elis, Gladiator boing tho only other sire in New Zealand possessing the same blood which he does through hi 9 grand dam Fatima. Gladintor was never tried to race. -But his full brother, Messager, was a rare performer on the flat flyer hurdles and across oouniry, having wo#the Northamptonshire- Stokes aa a 4-year-old, Surrey Grand Steeplechase, the Croydon Grand Hurdle Race, and ran second in the United Kingdom Steeplechase in 1874. He also won many races in France, and the sporting correspondent of the "The London Standard" pronounced him the very best steeplechaser as a 5-year-old. Gladiateur isalso grandsireof Sussex, Sting, and Hasty Girl, dam ot the famous Benmgo (who has eclipsed all precedents In the history of English racing) and other wonderful per' formers. The performances of Sussex prove him to bo one of the beat horses erer bred in Australia; it is needless to enumerate the number of his viotories, excopt the Grand National Steeplechase of July, 1881, carrying top weight, 13st lib. Sting won tho Hawkesbury Grand Handicap, carrying Bst, doing li mile in 2min 36>jscc, the fastest time on re- - cord. Gladiator ia admitted to be one ot the handsomest thoroughbreds In the colony, and ia eminently suited for getting racehorses, weight-carrying hunters, hurdle-racers, and ladies, and gentleman's hacks.
