Iff. Panio was im- • ported from England to Tasmania, • and put to thq stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and,again'puti to the stud. When he was 6 yrdJ old, he was purchased at a high price,and imported to Victoria, where he had two more- - seasons'' training and racing. He . proved himself the best English horse ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably, well; andwon several •' races, carrying heavy heights.; he was botli' - speedy and staying, ( of a moßt docile and quiet:temper, with a Wonderful constitution* and legs like iron. ( Like his sire, that' firsts class English racehorse Alarm, "he Was never sick, Borry, 6r lame;" and retired fifoni the turf without a blemish. At t&e : although from being in an place, he has not' Befcn favored by many?' first-class, mares, he has got more winuera out of half-bred ones than any ; horse in Vic* •• torla* and for general purposes his Btock ia much esteemed, '■ In the breeding of PERTOBE 'there is » ; Combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in' that famous line through Defence,. and . which comes to him on'the-sides of both >' sire and dam. On his sire' Panio'd side. there is, as well as his good Defence-bloody " that! of ,the game 'and stout powerful, and' speedy Melbourne, and* HV>stl excellent'6f all,'that of • PantalocHV r Th,ti • value of the Pantaloon blood is wdieniable k having fiirnikhed-so many proofs,, not alonQ as to its being speedy and laying, butalsa to its 'training on,'and being, essentially % ' running'strainfor although, some ottwra occasionally one.- or two animals,^' fewi Ifr any,, can compete with Pantaloon as to. numbers. : A very-grand re*. commendajbion' oX this strain of blood is, tha% it mixes successfully with, and others." Thus writes Copperthwaitei, and other good turf authorities agree with, hin* to the same effect. On the. side of the. dam of :Pertobk ; therQ is a lot.oj, , good blood coming in though, The Pre;. ; mier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was bjy Jerry, out of the Ardrossan maro, (the . dam of. the mare Beeswing, oolebirated not only, as a firsticlass radar, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the presenttime, viz., the Newminsters). The DolaprdT blood is also very good indeed. Delajut6's dam, Fhrtress,'by Defence, was the dam o< . the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the Fijsl. Mrs, Roberts, the great grand-dam of PftaroßE* was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ia jbod, he being by Wanderer, by ,, by Meroury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, sipt much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a, bad one by Wanderer never known," and i£ they can trape a pedi- : gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that ' quite sufficient. , PERTOBE, by ~ ©tn W,A 3 ' R ffl, (3- V BO.<l 2 O tr OB pd O 5P «• p a>- ffi 3 P®.3* cT'e-sr J" a H »■ » H B B! 3 2 ® OB § ® S*£l m 2 a n tn ro O--s- --^ B's x o to &- 0 OJ 2 ta S Pj B crew o Vcj O p<s.a Augur," in the Australasian, June Isth 1878, says :—" I oould fill the Australasiaa. ; •syith the doings of " Panic," and bis descendants. As a siro of good/ sound, and useful stoqk he has never had an eqty*l ia the Southern hemisphere. His victory* in the Launceston Champion Race, and tho style in which ho carried, lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were perform* ances of merit, and .sufficient to satisfy tho most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock haa become a proverb on the Australian Turf v and the ancient Strop who won a race at Launceston in February, is a. living example. Few horses have gone through such an ordeal ' as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Que'oiisland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand* and he is also a son of Pahio. Postboy, Postman, Prodigious, and' many pfcher good cross country horses, too numeroiiß to men* tion, are aiso descendants of the son of Alarm.". Terms: L 5 ss, payable . Ist, of January* 1880.
