PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple browi Stallion, standing 16 hands high, 1 Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, 1569. Got by Panic (imported); his di Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (in ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (im ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts by Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. ¥?• Panic was in ported from England to Tasmania, and pu to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was traine and. raced at 4, and again put to the stud When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchase at a high price and imported to Victorii where he had two more seasons' trainin and racing. He proved himself the bci English horse ever trained in Auatralii He ran remarkably well, and won seven races, carrying heavy weights ; he was bo! speedy and staying, of a most docile am quiet temper, with a wonderful constitutioi and legs like iron. Like his sire, that " class English racehorse Alarm, "hi never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired froi the tur£ without a blemish. At the eta although from being in an out-of-the place, he has hot been favored by r first-class mares, he has got more winnei out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vii toria, and for general purposes his stock much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE thoro combination of some excellent strainß blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, that famous line through Defence, _ which comes to him on the sides of kl sire and dam. On his sire Panic's iii there is, as well as his good Defence blooi that of the game and stout Venison, tl powerful aud speedy Melbourne, and, mo excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tl value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniaW having furnished so many proofs, not alo: as to its being speedy and staying, but al to its 'training on,' and being essentially ■' running strain for although some otne occasionally produce one or two firat-cli animals, few, if any, can competo w Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand I commendation of this strain of blood is, th it mixes successfully with, and improves,! others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, si other good turf authorities agree with '' to the same effect. On the fcifa the dam of Pertobe there is a lot good blood coining in through The Pt mier, whose graudsire, Tomboy, was Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrate uot only as a first-class racer, b also as the maternal ancestress of ISngta very best family of racehorses at tlio prese time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delap blood is also very good indeed. Delap: dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. M Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pkuwi was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood good, he being by Wanderer, by Goham by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, much is the Wanderer blood thought that they say "a bad one by Wanderen never known," and if they can trace ape gree to a Wanderer mare, they considers quite sufficient.
