TO STAND THIS SEASON AT WAIHI . DOWNS. Visiting Eltham on Mondays, Okaiawa and Manaia on Wednesdays, and Hawera and surrounding distriots on Thursdays, rtfrn'r Thoroughbred St. Cyb, by St. Leger— Hazel, by Nordenfeldt, dam Onida, by Yattendon, dam Gulnare, by Little John (son of imp. St. John), Gulnare, by Gohanna— Deception, by imp. Theorem— imp. Catty Sark. St. Leger, by Doncaster (Derby winner) oat of Atlantis. Nordenfeldt by Musket, dam Onyx. St . Cyb is a handsomely made horse, standing 16.}, with plenty of bone and substance, and has the most- fashionable running strains of blood in his veins. He * measures 8J in below the knee. Hiß^dam Hazel, raced by D. O'Brien, was a first-olass performer. Among other events, she won the Great Autumn Handicap, Canterbury J.tf., lj mii eB , in 2.37J, beating a good field. Hazel is full sister 0 Strathmore, winner of Victoria Derby and many other important races, and half sister to Hilda, Artillery, Brown Alice, and Moth, all being first-class performers. Hilda is - well known to all as one of the greatest performers New Zealand has seen. Artillery, another good performer, on the tart, was cold to go to America in 1895. St. Cyb, as a performer, has been un- '. 'fortunate. As a 3-year-old he struck himself on the off fore leg, whioh disabled him for the rest of the season ; as a 4-year-oldhe started 'at the National Meeting in the Ladies' Bracelet, in a field of ten, whioh he , won with ease, 10.9 up. At that stage he - was one of the favorits for the N.Z. Gup, but he again unfortunately over-reaohed, whioh necessitated his being thrown out of work, thus only starting in publio on one occasion.
