V.R.C. Meeting : third to Acme and Madelina, Maribyrnong Plate, 5 furlongs, 1.4 J; won Flying Stakes, beating Madeline and Acme, f mile; third in December Stakes, 5 furlongs, 9.1, time 1.3; second in Ascot Vale Stakes, f mile, 9.6, time 1.18.

Derby, won by Trident, 2.38 (fastest ever been run); second to Trident in the Champion Race, V.R.C., 3 miles ; and second to Abner in Doncaster Handicap, A.J.C. It will therefore be seen that his performances are first rate at all distances and under big weights, and being a change of blood in this colony, and coming from a good racing family—Vespasian being a first-class performer in England under big weights—ought to be everything that is desired to beget racehorses. At the Bourke Meeting in May, 1894, three of his gets were first, second, and third in the Mare’s Produce Stakes. He is also sire of Caroline, the winner of the Sires’ Produce Stakes on the second day. Terms : Thoroughbred Mares, 10 guineas; two or more, 7 guineas ; Half-breds, 5 guineas.
