Tlie ft tuct. :u\ r jMJ STAND THIS SEASON AT 1 WEST CLIVE, The Imported Clydesdale Stallion LORD NELSON. Tkhms :— ,Hu. Two or more auu'es as per agreement. W. ItUDDICK, Proprietor, West Clive. r JA(J ST ant > THIS SEASON AT KAIX KOKA, HAWKE'S BAY, THE FASHIONABLY - BRED BLOOD STALLION ii ANANIAS.’ Tkrms :—Six Guineas for single mares ; two or more mares as per agreement. Ananias is a beautiful chest rmt horse, rising 4 years old ; stands lb liantls 2 ruches on good firm legs and capital feet; has great substance of bone, with blood of the highest quality. He has a very handsome head and beautiful muscular neck, well let in to line deep slanting shoulders, short strong back, deep ribs, powerful quarters, grand action all round, and Were it not for an accident received while a yearling, lie would unquestionably have been one of the grandest racehorses in the colony. He was bred by E. G. Griffiths, Esq., Canterbury, and is by the famous Traducer (sire of Lurliue, Calumny, Castaway, Fishhook, Templeton, Danebury, dangler, Mufti, Trump Card, Nat at or, and Le Loup, who was, as a two-yeitr-pid was sold for \ lot) guineas), dam Ticklish by Potentate, qqt of Miss Mettle by Tom-h----it. (imp.), &c. Potentate was by the celebrated Australian f>ir Hercules, sire of the renowned Barb (one of the most successful racehorses of any time), Vattendon (the .sire of Chester, «&c.), \Vaiiuua (tire dam of Manuka and Papapa), Revoke (the dam of Trump Card ), and Gitana (the dam of Calumny). It will thus in* seen that Ananias is almost full brother to those grand animals Trump Card and Cftlquiny. Trump Card is perhaps the best colt oyer bred in the colony. As a two-year-old bo won the Champagne Stakes at Canterbury, after which lie was purchased by Mr Stead for something about 150 U sovs. As a three-year-old lie carried oif three Derbys —Canterbury, Wellington, and Dunedin. At Canterbury he ran second for the Cup, weight for age, and on the following day he easily won the Christchurch Plate. At Wellington, after Winning the Dcrhv. he ran Laura to a neck for the Cup, giving the latter 2 years and bibs. Later on we lind him in the Publicans’ Handicap at Dunedin, giving Izaak Walton 2 years and some weight, and defeating that speedy son of Dainty Ariel and Fanny Fisher over liis favorite distance, and at the same meeting lie struggled home in front of that wonderful horse Templeton for the Queen's Plate. Calumny was one of the grandest mares that ever passed a winning post. Alter carrying oif the Canterbury Derby and a number of other important races she went over to Australia, where she carried her owner’s colors to the front in several grandly contested races, carrying heavy weights, heating the best horses of the day, and that not under the most favorable circumstances. To further illustrate the superiority of the Traducer and Sir Hercules cross, and show the high estimation in which it. is held by racing men, it may be mentioned that a foal by Traducer out of Waimea, when only a few days old, was sold by M Redwood for 4*500, an extraordinary price for a foal. Slanderer, who is nearly full brother to Ananais, and who like him was prevented | from racing l»y an accident, is now standing in \ ictoria at ID guineas a mart*. The ! service of Traducer is 3CM.) guineas a mare, i and this can scarcely be wondered at, seeing that during the last racing sons and daughters won staleamount of £IO,OOO. Traducer was bred in England, and is by The Lbel. dam Arethusa. The Libel was by Pantaloon, out of Pasquinade, sister to Touchstone. From the above it must be.patent to the veriest amateur breeder that Ananias combines in himself some of the most .successful strains of racing blood in the world, and as lie is the only sire of the great Traducer blood now standing in the Province, breeders of racehorses should not lose the opportunity of pitting their marcs to him, whilst his beautiful shape, perfect symmetry, goo<l constitution, mild t< mi»e-r, and excellent capacity for carrying -weight should induce gentlemen desirous of breeding superior weight-carrying hacks to patronise him. Good paddocks, securely fenced and well watered by a running creek, provided free till notice of stinting, after which a charge of three shillings per week will be made. All mares must be paid for before they are removed. lively care taken but without responsibility. For further particulars, apply to M. MACKENZIE. Railway Hotel, sep 14-3 m Knikora.
