TO STAND THIS SEASON AT WAIHI DOWNS. Visiting Eltham on Mondays, Okaiawa and Manaia on Wednesdays, and Hawera and surrounding distriots on Thursdays, -qjßpj..,j^^T Thoroughbred oZjmS *4 T * °V R - St. Csfc, by St. Leger— Hazel, by Nordenfeldt, dam Ouida, by Yattendon, dam Gulnare, by Little John (son of imp. St. John), Gulnare, by Gohanna — Deception, by imp. Theorem— imp. Cutty Sark. St. Leger, by Doncaster (Derby winner) out of Atlantis. Nordenfeldt by Musket, dam Onyx. I St . Cyb is a handsomely made horse, [ standing 16.1, with plenty of bone and substance, and has tbe most fashionable running strains of blood in his yeins. He measures 8} in below the knee. Hiß^dam Hazel, raced by D. O'Brien, was a first- class performer. Among other events, she won the Great Autumn Handioap, Canterbury J.C., 1J miles, in 2.37J, beating a good field. Hazel is full Bister o Strathmore, winner of Victoria Derby and many other important races, and half sißter 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 turf, was cold to go to America in 1895. Si. Cyb, as a performer, has been unfortunate. As a 3-year-old he struck himself on the off fore leg, which disabled him for the rest of the season; as a 4-year-old he started at the National Meeting in the Ladies' Eraoelet, in a field of ten, which he won with ease, 10.9 up. At that stage he was one of the favorits for the N.Z. Cup, but he again unfortunately over-reached, which necessitated his being thrown oat of work, thus only starting in publio on one occasion.
