Clinkeb is a very handsome rioh brown horse, staodiDg 16 hands 2 inches, and good sound, perfectly Bhaped legs and feet, has a remarkably neat, gam?, intelligent head, splendidly shaped neok, let into deep, sloping Bhortderg, strong level back, good ribs, broad loins, and most powerful quarters well let down, good hooks and flat bone, and possesses those most essential qualities in a sire— a thoroughly sound constitution and kind temper. Clinkeb has prov-d bia ability to gallop, jump, and trot, and in this be is on'y emulating the deeds of his dam — I. O. — who, when in her prime, was never beaten on the flat, over sticks, or in trotting raceß. PEDIGREE. Clinker is by Xoung Towton, from 1.0. by Diomedes (imported from England by the late Hon. W. Robinson), seoond dam thoroughbred mare imported from New South Waleß in 1858 by Mr Schroder. Young Towton, by the imported Towton, full brother to Thy Peer (wire of Manuka, Peeress, Australian Peer, Darebin, and other renowned performers on the turf) from Sooks, thoroughbied mare imported to Nelson by A. S. Collins, Esq., from Sydney. Young Towton, it is generally eonoeded, Bired more good, sound, useful borses than any rther one sire in this Colony, and was the s<re of the etespleobase horses Don Juan and Hope, and was also the sire of Chanticleer and Nap-1-Nap, both champion trotters (eo!d to go to Australia for £300), also the craok sprinter Vakatu, who ie credited with i trotting a measured mile trial on the hard road in 2.20, wbkh would be a record for the Australian Colonies. Diomedes, sire of 1.0., was bred in Eoglaud in 1859, and waa got by Hesperuß, dam Liomedia (sister to Weethergage) by Weatherbit, out of Taurina. by Taurus— Esmerelda by Zingalee-Pastille by Rubens -Parasol by Pot 80s. Towion (imp.) was got by Melbourne, dam Cinizelle by Touohstone — Brocade by Pantaloon — Bombasine. Melbourne got by Hampbrey Clinker— Cervantes mare by Cervantes -daughter of Golumpus. It will thus be seen that tha blood that runs in Clinker's veins is of the stoutest and best that ever left England, and breeders will be studying their own interests by procuring the eervioes of this young horse, whose stook from ordinary mares are of great promise. 2045
