He has won over £9000 m stake money, ace that without . being ' 'engaged" as a two or throe-year-old, when he was practically invincible, He has proved himself a champion m each of the six seasons he has raced, retains all his courage, and has probably the cleanest set of legs m New Zealand to-day. He won three Jubilee Cups, two. Electric Plates, two G.J.C Challenges, two North Island Challenges, three Jackson Stakes, The Juvenile Plate, Middle Park Plate (an exceptionally brilliant performance.— Machine Gun, 2yrs, had the, Maiden allowance, and carried 7st 21b.

Century Stakes, Wanganui Guineas, Wellington Stakes, Wellington Cup, etc. In fact, nd horse m New Zealand has performed like him. He has never been unduly taxed, and his constitution is unimpaired. He comes of Bruce Lowe's No. 13 family, whence spring Highflyer, Albert Victor, ; George Frederick, Orlando, Beadsman, Mendicant, Shotover, 1 etc., while the same family is represented m these colonies by those successful sires, Nordenfeldt, Gainsborough, Martini-Henry, Robinson Crusoe, etc. Twenty approved Mares will be taken to Achilles at a fee of THIRTY GUINEAS.

THE THOROUGHBRED STALLION , HANDSOME JACK (By St. Leger — Radiant). ,^ HANDSOME JACK is a fine specimen of the thoroughbred, absolutely sound, and has shown himself not only to be a sure foalgetter, but also as the sire of winners, amongst whom may be favorably mentioned Roseal (O.J.C. Derby winner), the best colt of the year ; St. Joe, Beau Ideal (Century Hurdles winner, Wanganui), Handsome Rose, Lull (winner of the big Hurdles at the recent Wellington Winter Meeting); Apiti (winner of Horowhenua Hurdles, and a record holder over lj miles), Lavinia (winner of many jumping races), Katerina, Marinella, and many others. HANDSOME JACK'S progeny are all sound-legged horses, and as shown by above, have stood the test of racing successfully throughout many seasons on the flat and across country.
