AN IMPORTANT SALE OF THOROUGHBRED* YEARLINGS IN SYDNEY IN APRIL.

From Messrs H. Chisholm and Co, of Sydney, I have received catalogues of an important sale of yearlings to be conducted by them at their stables, Randwick, on Thursday the 9th April. As the sale will be held during the A J.C. Meeting week there will doubtless be a large assemblage of inter-colonial ‘ visitors. The Wilton Park yearlings—the property of Mr Samuel Hordern—numbers no less than forty lots, and are all by those well bred sires Haut Brion (imp),. Hindoo (imp), and Gique (imp). The auctioners point Qut the value of the Galopin—Musket cross, and as a good proportion of the season’s draft of the Wilton Park yearlings are bred to this com® bination their value should be considerably enhanced.
