© © ® NOTES BY MONITOR. Ammg the illustrations accompanying this number will be found several pictures of thoroughbreds well known all over the colonies. The chestnut stallion St. Leger, which has now been located at Wellington Park for many years past, w’iU be easily recognised. On the occasion of a recent visit the old fellow’.was looking a picture of health and bids fair to keep his name well up in the winning list of stallions for many a long day to come. Our artist has obtained a remarkably life like presentment of Castor, whose stock last year headed the winning list for the colony. Castor is a rich bay beautifully dappled, and is a magnificent specimen of a thoroughbred stallion indeed. Mr Morrin Is of opinion that in looks he has no equal south of the line. Another picture gives a capital likeness of the third member of the trio of famous stallions located at Auckland’s great thoroughbred nursery. This is Hotchkiss, who is the sire of the champion. Multiform. He is a strikingly power-ful-looking dark bay with black points and is considered by many to be the best musket stallion in existence. Frailty has Often been photographed, and her picture will be readily recognised, She is now 22. years old, and has thrown some wonderfully good ones in her time, possibly the best of these being the mighty Trenton. Last on the list comes Cissy, a beautiful brood mare now in foal to Castor. Some of her descendants have done exceptionally well, and her youngster to come up for sale next January is one of the best-looking of the lot which will then come under tlie hammer. These illustrations should prove of great interest to all those who take an interest in thoroughbred stock through the colony. As I surmised last week Flying Fox had small trouble in accounting for the rich Jockey Club Stakes of 10,000 sovs. By winning this the Duke ot Westminster’s champion brings his. list up to £42,000, and it would seem to be only a question of health for him to beat the record held by Donovan. In the race in question the son tof Orme and Vampire, which carried
9.9, and was piloted by Mornington Cannon, was followed home by Mr R. A. Orwald’s bay colt Scintillant, by Sheen —Saltire, and Mr Leopold de Rothchild’s chestnut colt Choson, by Donovan —St. Bride. It is satisfactory to learn that Cranberry, who won the AJ.C. Derby in such decisive style, will not be shipped Home at al] events until after he has filled his Caulfield and Flemington engagements. The son of Cranbrook and Tiwoona now figures ns first favourite for the V.R.C. Derby, being quoted at 5 to 2 against, while so good was his showing in the Metropolitan that he has an army of supporters for both the big Victorian Handicaps.
The withdrawal of Le Var from the Caulfield Cup came as a great shock to his numerous supporters. The son of Lochiel had done so well in the weigh t-for-age races at the recent spring meeting at Randwick that be was considered to have a chance second to none in the big handicap at Caulfield, so that when the scratching pen was put through hjs name lamentations were both loud and frequent. The s.s. Waiwera brought out the handsome cup which has been presented by Mr G. G. Stead to the Auckland Racing Club to be added to the next Auckland Cup. It stands about 2ft 6in high on a handsome ebony stand, and is beautifully designed, being composed of solid silver with a suitable inscription on the one side and a view of a race on the other. It is valued at 100 guineas. The Coromandel Racing Club have decided to hold a two days’ meeting on November 22nd and 23rd. A programme has been arranged, and the club intend making considerable improvements to the course.
The following are the winning payments over the Avondale Jockey Club Spring Meeting:—J. Roulston, £133; J. G. Ralph, £l2B 5/; J. Chaafe, £95; P. Jones, £B5 10/; T. H. Leunard, £6l 15/; A. Robertson, £57; J. Hill, £■s2'ls/; F. Ross, £52 5/; J. Rae, £42 15/; John Marshall, £2B 10/; A. E. Watkins, £2B 10/; J. B. Williamson, £2B 10/; H. Tooman, £23 15/; A. Morgan, £23 15/; J. E. Thorpe, £2B 10/; L. D. Nathan, £l4 5/; P. Chaafe, £9 10/; L. Harris, £9 10/; F. Macmanemin, £4 15/; Geo. Wright, £4 15/; F. B. Kitson, £4 15/; Dan McLeod, £4 15/; C. Lindsay, £4 15/; H. Laxon, £4 15/; total, £931 10/. At a meeting of the stewards of the Otabuhu Trotting Club held last week, John Heisenbuttel alias J. H. Smith, and the black mare Jewess alias Lass, were disqualified for life, on the ground that the mare Jewess was “rung in” as Lass at the Club’s meeting held last February. Word comes from New Plymouth that the New Zealand Cup horse Uhlan is doing a good sound preparation, and is a sure starter for the big twomile race. A wager was written locally last week of 500 to 20 about the son of Cuirassier’s chance. English files to hand report the death of the famous English trainer and horse owner Mr Robert Peck, at the early age of 55. Mr Peek was associated with many well-known horses, including Doncaster and his son Bend Or. He purchased the former from the late Mr Merry for £lO,OOO, • afterwards selling Stockwell’s great son to the Duke of Westminster for £14,000. This turned out to be a bargain, as Doncaster sired besides Others Bend Or, the sire of Ormonde, who begat Orme, the sire of Flying Fox. Doncaster is also sire of Russley (imp.) and St. Leger, who has made such a name for himself at the Wen fng ton Park Stud. The' members of the Pakuranga Hunt Club Intend to wind up their season with a point to point steeplechase on Saturday next. This is a very popular form of race in the Old Country, and the idea seems a good one. Good jumping horses are often unearthed "by this method of racing, which also gives their riders a chance of showing what they can do in the saddle. No doubt there will be a big muster of friends to witness the sport.
Dewey, whose chances are so highly esteemed in the V.R.C. Derby, in doing good work on the other side.
An offer of 1500 guineas was recently made for him, but wus refused by Mr T. Payten. It may be remembered that Dewey’s dam. Dona, was presented to Mr Payten by the late Hon. Jas. White.
Le Buff, a French-bred four-year-old, with Bst 41b in the saddle, is credited with winning the Prince of Wales’ Plate Handicap at Kempton Park in the wonderful time of 59 2-5 sec. This is a five furlong record for England.
At the Melbourne Hunt Club Meeting, held at Flemington last Saturday, Le Var was a starter in the Narre, Warren Stakes, but was defeated by Contrast.-. The race is a weight-for-age one, and is run over a mile and a quarter, and the time taken was 2min. 12|sec. The Auckland-bred colt Lancaster has been backed for the Melbourne Cup at 2000 to 80, while in conjunction with Dewey he has been supported to the tune of £7OOO for the double. Other combinations are Dewey and Mora, Dewey and Wargod, and Egypt and Voyon. The stakes for the Flying Handicap run at Avondale, and won by Firefly, have not yet been paid over. If has been arranged to allow the alleged owner in Christchurch to substantiate his claim to the money, but if he cannot do so it will be paid to Mr A. Robertson, who states that he paid 150 guineas for the speedy black mara Her former trainer, George Dawson, is missing, and report credits Honolulu as being his destination.
Cocos is reported to be striding along in good style in his work, and has been sent over to Victoria. The Derby colts Parthian and Dewey have also left to take part in the Victorian campaign. Bobadil is still reported to be amiss, and it is extremely doubtful whether he will figure among the candidates in the coming big Melbourne fixtures.
When old Paris came back to Mr White’s stud at Havilah he was accompanied from the Old Country by the stallions Merv (by Donovan — Alone) and Orzil (by Ayrshire—Merry Miser), and the brood mare Amphithura (by Amphion—Partition).
The erst Auckland Levanter, with 10.7 in the saddle, started in a handicap steeplechase at the Galway August Meeting, but failed to run prominently. Evidently Captivator’s son has not yet become acclimatised, and may yet give the Irish people a taste of his quality. The following horses have been nominated for the Caulfield Stakes, io be run ou the opening day of the V.A.T.C. Meeting on the 14th inst.:—Le Var, Cocos, The Chief, Bobadil, Wait-a-Bit, Contrast, Kobold, Lancaster, Mora, llymettus. Revenue, Auric, Scorn, Town Clock, Merriwee, Veneda, Cranberry, Fleet Admiral, Ballistite, Standish, Bnndook, Blackwood, The Australian Star, Dewey, Flodden, Reviver, Gauleon, Dirk Hammerhand.
St. Paul still continues to bound along in great style in his work at Ellerslie every day, and so far the son of St. Leger has shown no signs of uhsoundness. I notice he has been entered for the Metroplitan Handicap and Jockey Club Handicap, to be run at the C.J.C. Spring Meeting. Business on the N.Z. Cup still remains quiet. In the local market Explosion is quoted at 8 to 1, Douglas 10 to 1, Jupiter, Battleaxe, Bush Rose, and Fulman 14 to 1, Uhlan and Seahorse 20 to 1. ® © © THE WELLINGTON PARK STUD. A GLANCE AT THE YEARLINGS. Taking advantage of an invitation extended fo me by Mr Morrin to visit hia famous stud, I drove out the other day in company with a representative of the Sydney “ Referee.” The drive out is always a pleasant one, and the Park was soon reached. On arrival we were immediately welcomed by Mr Morrin, who at once suggested a stroll through the paddocks. In the first one we entered six colts were gracing, and these immediately trotted up for inspection. The first to catch my
eye was a brown colt by Uotehkiaa from Lady Evelyn. He showed plenty of power, and has a beautiful »et of legs under him, and one that from his appt-aranee should be no discredit to the daughter of Perkin Warbeck. A nice looking chestnut with a pair of white hind feet next came nailer observation, which his breeder informed •nr was by St. Leger from Valentine, a descendant of Stockwell ; he is a shapely youngster and looks full of promise. I liked the look of a sturdy grey which it was easy to see claimed Vivandiere as his dam, his sire beiug Castor, this makiug him a full brother to the speedy Tatthci. He is wonderfully strongly built and should furnish into a powerful horse. A handsome bay colt by Hotchkiss from Queen Cole is bound to attract attention, beiug very shapely and racy looking. He has two white hind feet,‘ and I cannot help thinking that he will follow in the footsteps of his elder relative Battleaxe. Rather a small one then caught my eye, a pretty bay with a white hiud foot aud a white snip on the end of his nose. He is rather closely inbred, being by Hotchkiss from Eve. as the sire is a son of Musket while the dam is a grand-daughter of the same horse. One to make a favourable impression upon me was a chestnut with a white blaze, who on inquiry I learn is by St. Leger from Lady Peer. Undoubtedly he is one of the best looking of the colts, having splendid quarters and plenty of driving power. Lady Peer is a recent addition to the stud, she being by Muskapeer, and her youngster seems bound to earn for her a good name at the Park.
Leaving the paddock and crossing the road a troop of fillies came cantering up in response to a call from Mr Morrin. I noticed that there were fifteen altogether, and a wonderfully even lot they seemed. First to claim attention was a nice brown by Hotchkiss from Browu Alice, and therefore half sister to Aleger. Neat and compact. the daughter of Strathmore’s sister looks like coming early. It was not hard to recognise the beautiful daughter of St. Leger and Hilda, she is a brown with a white fetlock, snd is wonderfully well grown. I gave her a most critical examination but was unable to detect a flaw, and she looks like being even better than St. Lucia which is saying a good deal. Forme is represented by a very taking looking chestunt filly with a white blaze and ears like her mother, slightly lopped. The youngster, despite this fault, which detracts somewhat from her looks, bids nevertheless to be a fine mover, as she showed nice action in a canter round the paddock. Quite close to her was standing a perfect picture, which I learned from Mr Morrin was a daughter of St. Leger and Necklace. She bears a most aristocratic appearance, having a beautiful head, even barrel and splendid quarters. There can be no question that she will prove one of the gems of the collection. A fine slashing filly is one by Hotchkiss from Gannett, and if her looks do not belie her she should be one of the wear and tear sort. A big well grown filly then trotted up. and it was easy to recognise her as a daughter of St. Leger and Hazel. She has a white star and two white hind feet, and bears the closest inspection. A filly by Cuirassier from Ganger is somewhat on the small side. She is brown in colour and shows plenty of quality all round. St. Evelyn has a nice looking chestnut filly with a white star to represent her. The youngster is by Hotchkiss, and is a first foal and undoubtedly a good one. A filly by Castor from Lyrenus has a shapely appearance but possesses a rather plain head. The filly by Castor from Lady Wellington is small, and is a bay. The next to appear was a filly by Hotchkiss from Sapphire, a mare which has thrown many good ones, so that I think her yearling representative should be able to gallop. A full sister to Eaton, and therefore by Castor from Lady Walmsley, caught my eye. She is a bay with two white hind feet and a blaze and does not much represent. her speedy brother. Agnes has a chestnut filly, the sire being Hotchkiss, so that, the breeding is of the best, Agnes being got by St. Leger. The filly is rather on the small side, but should be able to muster a good dash of foot, and front her appearance should come to hand early. Crescent is represented by a first foal who claims Hotchkiss a® her sire. Rhe is a fine grown bay yearling nnd Is bound to attract attention when In the stile ring. Another bay grazing alongside Is a filly by Castor from Bangle, and is nicely built all over. Rhe Impressed me with the opinion thnt she should mnke n good name for herself on the rnce track.
Leaving this paddoek we recresaed the road, nnd climbing the stone wall
had a look at another batch of colts, and seven beauties they proved themselves to be. The first to respond to Mr Motrin's call was a fine compact bay colt by St. Leger from Cissy, and therefore full brother to St. Haro. He is splendidly grown,being very compact in structure, und I fancy in the sale ring will dispute the position for the highest price yearling at the annual sale. Frailty is now becoming full of years, but one would never imagine it judging by her magnificent representative. an all brown by Hotchkiss. This gentleman resembles his full brother Lancaster in a good many respects, and if looks can be taken as any criterion he is bound to uphold the reputation of the famous stud. A very nice looking colt is one by St. Leger from Lady Cureton. He is a chestnut with a white hind foot, and I like his appearance immensely, as he is sure to build up into a fine racehorse. A full brother to Screwgun next came under observation, being by Hotchkiss from Rose of Wellington. He is a brown colt with a near white hind coronet and takes a good deal after his brother True Blue. He is one of the determined sort I should think, •nd is almost sure to figure prominently in the winning list later on. Lady Augusta, who is a daughter of St. Leger and Brown Alice, has a nice brown colt by Hotchkiss. He is a powerful-looking customer, and by his appearance is sure to turn out a galloper. A bay by St. Leger and Ganet, was next pointed out, and is Ganet’s first foal. He is a fair size and warrants the supposition that he will race early. Last to appear was one of the pick of the whole stud, this being a yearling by Hotchkiss from Oiuda, and is a most compactly built looking brown. Oiuda has thrown many good ones and her present representative is bound to worthily uphold the family honour.
After criticising the youngsters, and indeed there are few faults to be found with any of them, we adjourned to the summer house where refreshments had been thoughtfully provided by our host, and after these had been done justice to, we strolled across to have a look at the stallions, a description of which will be found in another column, and then took a ramble among some of the paddocks and renewed acquaintanceship with some of the famous brood mares. I notice old Frailty looking the picture of health and carrying a foal to Hotchkiss. Another good one was Cissy, on on whose prowess Mr Morrin descanted for a while. She is in foal to Castor, Onida and Hilda, a mother and daughter, were grazing in the same paddock, the former is carrying a foal to Hotchkiss while the latter shows signs of her visit to St. Leger. I also noticed two mares which Mr Stead has sent up to the Park to pay their respects to Hotchkiss. These are Corolla and Ich Bien, both of these have youngsters running at foot ■by Gipsy Grand. Several other well known mares recalled reminiscenses of battles of the past, Mr Morrin being full of anecdotes of the good deeds of some of these equines. Soon, however, it was time to make a start for home, and after a hurried look at the youngsters again, which had now been boxed up for the night, we regretfully bid adieu to the popular stud master and shaped our way homeward, having spent a very pleasant afternoon at the famous stud on the slope of Mount Wellington,
® © © THE HON. MOSMAN S TEAM,
I had a, hurried glance at some of the Hon. Mosman’s horses one day during last week. The first box thrown open contained a five year old mare by Cuirassier from Onida, therefore halfsister to Strathmore. She is a fine stamp, but so far has not donned silk, and I hear -that she is to be mated with a good horse this season and turned out. The next box contained Multiform’s full sister, Formula, which is undoubtedly a fine specimen of the thoroughbred, and resembles her full brother in looks very much. With the exception of a small scar below one of her knees, not a. fault could be found with the daughter of Formo, and she should be capable of holding her own with the best of our two year olds when the colours are up. Welstock was in the next box, and a beautiful colt the full brother to Waiuku looks. He is a rich brown in colour, and built on very strong fines, with a splendid set of legs under him. Lories, a two-year-old gelding by Moult- from Lady Emmeline, has grown and furnished into a splendid stamp of a racehorse, and I was very much taken with his appearance. With the exception of looking a bit straight on his front pins, he la perfect in conforma-
tion, and should well pay his way on ' the race track.
The Afghan was the next looked at. He is a fine big upstanding three-year-old colt, chestnut in colour, and I think will require time before he is seen to perfection. H* was seen out at the recent Avondale meeting, but did not show up prominently. The last one to come under notice was lleugist, who looks a perfect picture. He is a rich bay colt, with black points. The son of Hilda is very compactly built, and shows towers of strength all over, and will undoubtedly turn out a racehorse.
The Hon. Mosman’s private trainer, Colley, has all his horses looking big and lusty, and as he has some good material to work on, it should not remain long before he is seen leading in the winner of some important events. © © © AUCKLAND TROTTING CLUB SPRING MEETING.
