SIRE OF THE SEASON. .sraa^ fTTIO STAND THIS GRACKSHOT, by Nordenfeldt (by Musket— Onyx), dam Pungawere were, got by Golden Grape, out of Atalanta, by Towton out of Crescent, by Sir Hercules; Nordknfbldi (the sire of Crackshot) was a great racehorse, his performances being as follows :— Won the Hawkesbury Produce Stakes, won the A. J.C. Derby and Craven Plate, Spring Maiden Plate, Randwick Plate (3 jnileß, w.f.a.), wou the Derby (V.R.O. Spring Meeting) ; he alao ran fourth within a length of the winner, as a three-year-old, in tho Melbourne Cup, in the fast time of 3min 29} sec; he also ran second to Trenton iv the Canterbury Plate one and a-half miltß. Tbe abovo were the oalj races he started for. Owing to his thorough garaeness he was nick-named the " Bull-dog," Air fennelly (trainer to tbe late Hon. J. White) pronounced Nordenfeldt the greatest horse that he cv er put through a preparation. With something to make a desperate pace for him over a distance, Mr Fennelly considered that there was nothing to cope with Nordenfeldt. At the breaking-up of Sylvia Park Stud, Nordenfeldt realised the large sum of 5600 guineas. Pungawebkwseb, the dam ol Crackshot, was a very fast mare, winning, among other laces, the Maiden Plate (Canterbury) and Tradesmen's Handicap, the Dunedin Cup, of 400 soys (2 miles and a distance), and the St. Leger Stakes at Canterbury. Punguwerewere is very stoutly-bred, being got by Golden urape out of Atlanta. Golden Grapu, by Birntou, own brotuer to Voitigeur, whose descendants, Galopin and St. Simon, are t#o of tho moat ia:hlonable sues in Eugiaud, cummantiiug ho iesß a fee tnau 260 guineas. All Pungawerewere's progeny are real fast gallopers. She is the dam of Tetford (winner of the rree U&ndicap, 1 mile, the Plate Handicap, and the Fjying Handicap at tho Thames J.C. Meeting ; the Wangauvi Cup, 2 miles, beating Waitiri and eight others; also, won tne Si&kes Handicap at Waoganui autumn meeting ; tbe Victoria Handicap. 1 mile and a distance, in the fast time of lmin 6845e0, at the A.R.U. summer meeting. Pungawerewe.-e is also the dam of Brigadier, who won as a two-year-old the Mares Produce Stakes, the Flying Stakes, f-irdie, eating such a flyer as Mitrailleuse and others ; won he Ellersiie Plate at the A.X.C. autumn meeting,' beating five others. She is also the dam of St. James (winner of the Dunedin Cup), Krupp, Katlpo, Puwerewere, and others. Her ton, Brigadier, is going to make a name for himself at the stud, not alone for getting flat racers, but flrat-class cross-country iioises. He is the sire of Bombardier, the winner of neveral jumping events, including the Auckland Grand National Steeplechase, and ran second to Norton iv ' ihe uraud Nat.onai Stouuiecaase at the last Cnrißtchurch meeting, Biigauier is alao the sire of that • good little horse Brigand, winner of sever*! good races, ana numerous otuer fast hones. Last, but not lease, is Ckackshot himself —a really flrat-cluss racehorse while on the turf. The followiug are some of his performances :— Won the Spring Haudicap, Hawke's Bay, 1J miles, 2min 89sec, btating Strephon, Pearl Powder, Oynisca, Boulanger, and Katinka ; won by a length easy. Won Canterbury Cup, 2£ miles, 4min 4Jaec, beating such horses as Medallion, and Freedom ; won easily oy three lengths, Won the Auckland Cup, 2 miles, carrying Bst Sib, beating Hilda, Cissy, Dudu, CStrephon, St. Anorew, and others, iv the fast time of iimin 80gsec ; won easily by a length and a-half ; this performance has only been beaten once, viz., by St. Hippo, by half a second. Had Cracksuot been asked to gallop, he would have easily scored the record. Won Auckland Plate, IA miles, in 2inin 47£ sec, again beating Medalliou and Hilda somewhat easily. Won Birthday Uandieip and J.C. Handicap at Heathcote. Won A.K.O. Handicap Crackshot wou d have been a Melbourne Cup winner, only he could not be thoroughly prepared, on account ot striking himself when in f*Bt work. He ran severa' close seconds to first-claaa horses, carrying heavy weights. Oracsshot never raced in hack company, but was nominated for tbe steeplechase meeting at Giaborne Paris, in the Winter Oats, and he received the steadier of 18st 7lb being asked to give King Cannibal and others 3st 4lb! Craukshot is a beautitul-looking horse, stands 10 hands 2 inches, with good bone aud plenty of Bubßtance, and having such a strain of running blood from both his sire and dam, xt must prove to tno most fastidious Dreeders that mating their mares With such eteoiaa of blue Wood, it must end in good results. Cr&ckshot is as well auapttd to get crosscountry horses as his half-brother Brigadier, and those breeders .wishing to breed a fast hunter from an oidinary mare, or a racehorse from a thoroughbred mare, could not do better than mate them with Crackshot. He possesses a grand constitution and beautiful temper, and being a young sire and sure foai getter, should prove a boon to the district. Crackshot was awarded First Prize and the Society's medal for the best thoroughbred sire ac the 1893 A. and P. society's Show, beating Hukatore, Kalo, Maori and others.
