0 ! STALLIONST ! • TO STAND-THIS SEASON, , At the Windsor Park Estate, nearJOamaru, THE POEE-BBED CLYDESDALE >- STALLION . : >RI NC E VI"C TO JR. PRINCE VICTOR is a loiutiful, thickset, stout-hearted, d-rk-Vrown rather under than ever 1 f't : >::nds 3 inches, [bred by John K-q., Parluiianis, was got by _ Prince .The illustrious stud horse of L. Brew, Esq., Merryton out of Rosie,, a mare belonging to an .&ceddingly favorable strain •of blood, and is one of the finest and most- perfect mares that ever looked through a bridles 'She gained maDy first prizes, and at Maryhill, won second honors as . a brood rnaro in a competition that was open to. all Scotland;. Uosie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwaer, -Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire, and in ISfi-i, won second -prize at the Highland Society' 3 Show at Stirling, and-was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding lines of Prince Victor are'the fine combinations of the"'! Prince of Wales' blood crossed with that of Victor's, which trace back uninterruptedly, to IheColomba Stock of 1835. Rosie' granddam was Jean, the dam of Di3 r aeli, who, when a 2-year-old,' won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glasgow m 1875 ; and as a, 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 1876. Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at tho different shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, thining with the names of the founders of what is known as the Victor breed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as a sire. He is a horse of great substance and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as a breeder, qualities which arc inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has' a larj ;s share of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image of that which maybe 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. His fine legs, strong and great bone, clean, and flowing with nice hair —the *rne badge of a well-bred Clydesdale—and if his sire is a landmark of the ancient state of things, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
