STALLIONS TO ST/ NT* T r T-! SEASON, At the Windsc 1 f \" k •' te, near Oamaru, THE PUR' " - YDESDALE hi'.iL .OX pRIN Cli VICTOR. PRINCE VICTOR is a l«autifnl, thickset, stout-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 bands 3 in<*he?, bred by John Henderson. Esq., Farkmanis, was got by Prince of Walts. The illustrious btud horse of L. Drew, Esq., Jlerryton out of Rosie, a inare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of blood, and is one of the finest and most perfect marcs that ever looked through a bridle. She gained many first prizes, and at Mary Ml), won second linDora as a brood mare in a competition that was c>p?n to all Scotland. Kosie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwaer, Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire, and in ISiJI, won second priz-; at' the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding lines of Prince \ ictor are the fine combinations of the Prince of Wales' blood crossed with that of Vicior's, which trace back uninterruptedly to the Ci.lomba Stock of 1535. Rosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, ■when a 2-year-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow in 1575 ; and as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1876. Prince Victor last year cotild boast of four winners at the different shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, shining with the names of the founders of what is known as the Victor br- ed, should not fa<l to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims a« a sire. He is a horse of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as a breeder, qunli'ies which are inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, lir.s a Hrg s share of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image of that which miy be regarded as a specimen of the genus, and which is virtually extinct in Victoria since the death of Mr. Cox's "exceptionally grand horse, Prince of Wales. ' There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, shape. and blood are the surest test of excellence. Hi-line legs, strong and g eat bone, uLan, and (lowing with nice hair—the true badge i.f a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a lmdmark of the auci nt state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the must compact and fashionable horse 3 to be seen. Terms —Ten Guineas. Payable on the Ist I'Vliruary. Groom's Fee, ">s. Pr.ddocking free for one month, after which 2s (id per wee!; will be charged. Every care taken, but no responsibility.
