STALLIONS rpo STAND THIS SEA&ON 1 IN THE OAMABU D;SIT;ICT, AM) AT MR. PATEHROV6 PRIVATE EESIDi.NCK, < AMAi-.U, ' The Fashionably bred and very Superior Thoroughbred Ho se V K K V O B E, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq!, Victoria, in 18G9. By Panic (imported) out of Hester CJrazebrook, by the Prem er (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delupre (imported), out of Mrs. Jloberta, by Wanderer (imported); Panic, by Alarm, out of Queen ot Beauty, by Melbourne out of Birthday, by Pantaloon out of Hon.ria, by Camel, &c, &c. Pertobk is a da.k bay horse, 7 years old, standing 15 hands 3 inches high, with great lei.gfch, substance, and qualkv, and was one of the fastest horses that ever raced in Victoria. The fact that he has got Pantaloon blood in his veins is a great recommendation, for it is questionable if better flows iu any animal's; the very best runners and the grandest specimens of the thoroughbred are descended irom Pantaloon, whose blood cannot be excelled. The value of P.inoaloou blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not al< ne as to speed and staying, but also as a running strain, for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-cla.s animas, still, few can compete with that in question as to number. For high breeding, good true racing action, honesty and gameness, with soeed oi remarkable brilliancy, Pertobk has no equal, and Thoroughbred Mares put to him should breed good, racehorses.

A glanee at the shortly-tabulated pedigree will show how the blood of the horses mentioned comes in— g Hester iGazlebrook Venisnn by P rHsan Southdown by Defence ]ueen of \ Vfelbourn Tho Premier Miss Napier Birthday (Stockham's dam), by Pantaloon Tory Boy, bv Tomboy, a son of Je n ry, out of the Ardrossau Mare, dam of Be &o.
