He is a riob bright bay, with back points, and b&saperfeot constitution, combined with an excellent temper, and bis quality oannot be disputed. He has only been exhibited on ona oooasion, viz., at the Chriaohuroh Metidpolitan Show of 1892, when he was awarded Seoond Priza m bis o;as>9, cgainat the Cbampicn Three-year-o'd of Yiotorio, In the opinion of many judges, both Colts were equal m quality, but the superior condition of tbe Viotorian oolt gave him the preference. Wellington bad been brought out cf the paddock where he bad been running all winter only a few days before the Show. Wellington's sire Woodland?, is too wellknown m Canterbury to need much deEorip» tlon.
