SIRES OF THE SEASON TO ST AND , THIS' SEASON, at Cambridge, and surrounding district. Thoroughbred Stallion “RAGLAN,” Dark Brown Compact Horse, 15 hands 3 inches high, 7 years old, . By Cap-a-pie—Tenambra (sister to Dougalston), by The Marquis, imp.—Lady Manners Sutton, by Pitsford, imp.—Green Linnet, by Delapre, imp. RAGLAN was sired by Cap-a-pie, whose cross-country stock are favourably known. Tenambra, the dam of Raglan, was a highly-bred mare, and ran five seconds in Auckland after being imported from Australia. She was sired by that grand horse The Marquis, and two of the races he won were the classic English Two Thousand Guineas and the St. Leger. When on the turf Raglan proved himself a thorough honest horse and first-class stayer, able to last to the end of a Cup race, carrying weight and defeating the best horses in Auckland. In sprint races he showed his pace by beating performers ifke Teksum (who won races against the best horses in Australia), Cissy, and others. \ , As will be seen, Raglan is a suitable horse to breed from to get racehorses and fast cross-country stock; and if put to roomy active mares, to get weight-carrying hacks and active harness horses. Terms: £3 10s. single mares and thoroughbreds; for two or more mares a reduction will be made. For further particulars apply to THOMAS SUTTIE, , s Cambridge.
