Thorough-bred Horse P E R T O BE Eminently suited for getting Hunters' Handsome Weight-carrying Haoks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown, Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Esq., Victoria, fo, 1869. Got by Panio (imported); his dam Hester Grasebrook, by The Premier (im* ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (im» jorted); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberta i>y Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. Ift. Panio was im. ported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and again put 'to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchasod at a high price and imported to Viotoria,, where he had two more seasons' training; and racing. He proved himself the beat English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won soveral races, carrying heavy weights; ho was both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that first, class JSnglish racehorse Alarm, "ha was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by many lirst-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Viotoria, and for general purposes his stook ii much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalobcme, in that famous line thv6ugh Dofonea, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panic's side there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and atout Venison, tho powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, moat excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tho value of tho Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to its being speedy and Btaying, bat also to its 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-clasa animals, few, if any, can compote with Pantaloon as to numbers. _ A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, *ll others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the side of the dam of Pertobk there is a lot (£ goo'd blood coming in through Tho Pw* mier, whose grjyidsiro, Tomboy, was Jerry, out o$ the Ardrossan mare {thoi dam of th,e mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, buJt also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., tho Newminsters). The Delaprf blood is also very good indeed. Delapr<s'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the daiii of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs, Roberta, th§ groat grand-dam of PEiU'Oßtt, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood 41 good, he being by Wanderer, by by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so> much is the Wanderer blood thought of,, that they say "a bad one by Wanderor waa never known," and if they can traco a podi* gree to a Wanderer mare, they oousidor thatt quite sufficient.
