The thoeouohbred imported STALLION, GOLD BEEF, Will stand this season at PALMERSTON NORTH. GOLD REEF is a handsome brown horse, without a ■white mark, standing 16 hands, stoutly built, showing a lot of quality, and a horse with excellent bone, measuring 81 inches around the cannon bone. He has a grand conefitution and a good temper* He has had several seasons rafciilg, yet he has retired sound enough to stand another Pr Tbstudents ofVreeding, a perusal of Gold Reef’s tabulated pedigree'will prove him to be one of the stoutest bred horses in the English Stud Book. His sire (Bend Or), winner of the English Derby, was also sire of the unbeaten Ormonde, and his dam (Crucible), besides being a good performer, is also dam of those good racehorses Gold Seeker, Sorcerer, Goldfield, and Gold Leaf. Thus it will be seen that Gold Reef comes from an excellent ninning family, and, if given a chance with, good mares, it is fair to assume that he will become a winner-producer. The following is Gold Beef’s tabulated pedigree I. .

It will thus be seen! that Gold Reef, besides having proved himself a racehorse, has also been a great weight-carrier. W GOLD BEEF will serve a limited number of mares.
