TO STAND THIS SEASON, and to travel between Stoney River and Oeo, returning via Kaponga and Eltham Road, The Thoroughbred Sire, Fantastic. FANTASTIC was foaled in 1883, and is highly fashionable, being by the best blood on both sides, and has proved himself a sure foal getter. His sire, Apremont (brother to the great French horse Chamant), was bred in France in 1878, being by Mortemer, dam Araucaria (dam of Rayon d’Or), by Ambros—Pocahontas (dam of Stoekwell, &c.), by Glencoe. Mortemer by Conquieuge (son of FitzGladiator) —Comtesse, by Baron of Nuncio, Ambros, by TouchstoneAnnette, by Priam. Apremont was imported into Canterbury 1882 by Mr G. G. Stead. Fantastic’s dam, Fantasy, is by Traducer, out of Miss Flat, who was by the imported Peter Flat, out of the imported dam Mountain Nymph, who again was by Sir Tattou Sykes’ Giselle, by Stockport. Miss Flat is the dam of a numerous family, the greatest of whom was tho renowned Welcome Jack, one of the greatest race horses ever bred in New Zealand Fantastic is a beautiful bay, standing 17 hands high, possessing great bone substance, and symmetry. His sire, Apremont, came out at the top of winning sires in the season of 1882, beating no less than 180 other sires. The placing at disposal of the breeders of the above districts the services of such a well-bred animal as Fantastic is an opportunity that should not be missed by those who desire to obtain good stock.
