STALLIONS \0 STAND THIS SEASON IS THE OAMARU DISTRICT, AND AT DKNCK, OAMAIIU, The Fashionably bred and very Superior Thoroughbred Horse V K K T 0 13 !•:, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in 18H0. By Panic (imported) out of Hester (iranebrook, by the Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapre (imported), out of Airs Roberts, by Wanderer (imported); Panic, by Alarm, out of Queen of Beauty, by Melbourne out of Birthday, by ! antalnun out of Hoiioria, by Camel, &c, &c. I'erTiEi is a dark bay horse, 7 years old, standing 15 bai'ds 3 inches high, with great, length, substance, and quality, 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 Hows in any animal's; the very best runners and the grandest specimens of the thoroughbred are descended mini Pantaloon, whose blood cannot be excelled. The value of Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to speed and staying, but also as a running strain, for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-class animals, still, few can compete with that in question as to number. For high breeding, good true racing action, honesty and gameness, with speed of remarkable brilliancy, Pertobk has no equal, and Thoroughbred Mares put to him should breed good racehorses. PERTOBE, by •' .\ugur," writing in the Aimtralasian of the 4th of August lasr., says : " Several more thoroughbred "ires have been advertised, and, if placed according to merit, Panic certainly deserves the premier position, for there can be no disputing that lie is the most in.sfuL i.f all the sires in Australia ; ami being .-o, the question arisen, I* lie not the most valuable ? He may not have ' produced such b>iliiant horses a .-onu'ot' our j crack siivs. but for the pinducti n of every ! description. hj« has no ■q> al. >: iml.lefoo,. Strop, Melbourne, Adelaide, and others, have placed many a good flat- race to his credit; Prodigious, Lone Hand, Saucepan, Quicksilver, and many others, have shown us what his descendants are capable of over a country ; and for general purposes they are unsurpassed, as they inherit all their sire's soundness of wind and limb. Mr. 'fait has often told me that the best coustitutioned horse be ever owned was Melbourne ; and : tins being one of the chief character'sties of ' Panic's sicvk, ho is 'well worthy of liberal ljatrouiiee from brce.ie.s."
