PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple bro(n| Stallion, standing 16 hands high, * Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, i, 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his d«n, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (in, ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (ia, ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported).— See Stud Book, Vol 11., p. 47. Panic was in, ported from England to. Tasmania, and pt| to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trains! and raced at 4, and again put to the stui When he was 6 yrs. old, ho was purchased at a high price and imported to Victory where he had two more seasons' trainjjj and racing. He proved himself the bet; English horse ever trained in 1 He ran remarkably well, and won sovenl races, carrying heavy weights ; he was boll speedy and staying, of a most docile at] quiet temper, with a wonderful constitute and legs like iron. Like his sire, that fint class English racehorse Alarm, "he mi never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired frw the turf without a blemish. At the ski, 'although from being in an out-of-the-mj place, he has not been favored by nmj I first-class mares, he has got more winna out of half-bred ones than any horse in V» toria, and for general purposes hia Btook i much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there ii i combination of some excellent straini of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, i that famous line through Defence, ul ! which comes to him on the sides of fcoll sire and dam. On his sire Panio'B lit there is, as well as his good Defence blood that of the game and stout Venison, til | powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mm excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Th value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniably having furnished so many proofs, not alou as to its being speedy and staying, but ilk to its 'training on,' and being essentiallyi ' runuiug strain ;' for although some othen occasionally produce one or two first-clisi animals, few, if any, can compete will Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand it commendation of this strain of blood is, thi it mixes successfully with, and improve!, i others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, ul other good turf authorities agree with li to the same effect. On the suhV the dam of Pertobe there is aAM good blood coming in through Tta m> mier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, msjj Jerry, out of the. Ardrossan mare (lb dam of the mare- Beeswing, celebntt not only as a firat-class racer, B also as the maternal ancestress of Englul very best family of racehorses at the yraa time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delblood is also very good indeed. dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the W the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mi Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pektoi was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blooJi good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohui by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania much is the Wanderer blood thought i that they say " a bad one by Wanderer I never kuown," and if they can tracei a W gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider tt quite sufficient. I PEP..TOBE, by

"Augur," in the Australasian, June! 1878, says :—" I could fill the Austrf with the doings of "Panic," and hi? cendants. As a sire of good, sqund, the Southern hemisphere. Ifis view the Launeaston Champion Rage, W style m which ho carried 10st. in* o JS place in the Melbourne Cup, were gew anoes of merit, and sufficient to s*ti?W most exacting that he wa3 a racehorse* mean orler. The soundness of hissW become a proverb on the Australia''' aud the ancient Strop who won a *•£ Launceston in February, is a living Pew horses have gone through such W»J as Melbourne, another son at prcse" fl forming at Queensland. The greatest »i steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone and he is also a son of Panic. « Postman, Prodigious, and many oW* cross country horses, too numerous *° tion, are also descendants of th e ' Alarm." . ,„
