ROBERT KENNEDY, Owner. HUGH-NEILSON, Groom in charge. 5w1333 fJIO STAND AT MAKAREWA. THE HIGHLY-BRED IMPORTED ’ STALLION FLEETHAM (10), BRED BY LORD LONDONDERRY. By Picton (7) by Orvieto (1) by Bend Or (1) from Flete by St. Simon (11), the greatest sire the world has known, from Free by Plebeian. Fleetham is a direct descendant of Queen Mary the ancestress of Blair Athol, Bayardo, Hampton, Lemburg, and Paper Money who is standing in New Zealand at 100 guineas service fee. It will be seen from the above that Fleetham is certainly one of the best bred horses standing in New Zealand to-day. Fleetham stands 16.2 hands in height, bone 8| inch below knee, with as clean a set of legs as any horse standing in the Dominion. Fleeham is in great heart for the coming season and is in his prime as far as stallion’s ages go for leaving of his best if given decent mares and treating their offspring right. Breeders can rest assured of getting high-class horses that can jump, stay or sprint. Fleetham, sired Jack O' Lantern, a young horse that could sprint, stay and jump. He was without a doubt one of the gamest horses that ever faced a hurdle and would have made his presence felt in the Grand National Hurdles this year only for meeting with an accident at Gore in a hurdle race in which he broke a fetlock on landing when a sure winner. Although he broke his leg he never fell. Fleetham has some very promising young jumpers with plenty of speed qualifying with the Birchwood hounds this season for future events and are all natural jumpers. Two of them were first and second in the maiden-jump-ing competition at the Drummond Hunt. French Fleet, Wairio, Fenham, Golden Fleet, Fleetham’s Monica, Captain Blood, all natural jumpers. FLEETHAM will serve 30 mares this season at 15 guineas, payable January 1, 1929. The best of grass, water and shelter for mares at 3/- per week. Mares will get special attention if required. Mares by rail consigned to Wallacetown Junction. Letters and telegrams Makarewa P.O. Every care taken but no resnonsibility. Aj3B7 FRANK DONOVAN, Owner.
