— OAMBRIA J) ARK gTUD £jOMPANY> JJIMITED., PAPATOITOI, AUCKLAND. The following Sires will Stand this season: — CYRENIAN, By St. Simon—Daisy Chain, by Springfield— Chatelaine, by Cambuscftti. A LIMITED NUMBER OF SUBSCRIPTIONS AT 25 GUINEAS. This beautiful young horse, bred by Lord Londonderry in 1894 is a whole bay. with black points, rare quality and substance and excellent temper. He was a good performer, winning Hardwicke stakes, Granby Stakes, Johnston’s Hate at Stockbridge, Welter at Newmarket, and Belper’s Plate at Derby, and went to the Stud sound in every respect. He is the highest-priced stallion ever imported to the Australian Colonies, and is a direct descend int of ECLIPSE, through both his sire and dam. That great authority, Bruce Lowe, writes “ A direct descendant < f Eclipse, through the best source. Whalebone ” St. Simon won over all distances, and was never beatrn. His stud fee is 6'U guinea”, and his sons are highly va’ued wherever the thoroughbred is known. Springfield has the splendid record of 14 starts in 1876 and 1877,. winning everytime. During his whole career he was only beaten twice, each time lunnmg second, a head behind the winner. He sired winners of 326 races, winning stakes amounting to over £140,000. His daughter, Morganette, is the dam of Galt'ee More add Ard Patrick, both Derby winners. Saintfleld. a full sister to Gyrenian, produced (her first season at the stud) Carabine, a good performer, winner af a number of races including Nottingham Plate £590, and Msnchetter Handicap of £1,500. Rock Sand, who has won the two great c assic events, Two Thousand Guineas and Derby, in England this season, has had a p .rticulariy brilliant career. As a two-year-old, out of seven star s he on.y once suffered defeat, when he ran third to Flotsam and Mead in the Middle Park Plate. Auckland is fortunate in the possession of a horse b ed very much like this year’s Derby winner. Cyrenian to a very large extent possesses the same blood, as he is t y St. Simon out of Daisy Chain by Spiingfleld Kock Sand is by Baiufoin by Springfield, out of Koquebrune by tt. Simon. Rock Sand is simply saturated with Stockwell blood, as Sainfoin’s sire is a grandson, and his dam a granddaughter, while Roquebrune’s sire St. bimon, is out of fit. Angela by a halfbrother to Stool well, and Roquebrune’s granddam was a Stockwell mare. Cyrenian has almost exactly similar blood ’n his veins, so that tbi< handsome young stallion is bred on ihe most successful lines in England to-day. ETON, By C. stor—Lady Walmsley (own Sister to Carbine) by Musket—Mersey. The stock of this aristocratically bred young Lorse is very promising. His close relationship to Carbine should make him attractive to breeders Subscription : Ten Guineas. The First Ten Approved Mares will be booked at Five Guineas. Grazing can be arranged; every care, but no responsibility. Further particulars from E. B. ALEJCANDER, Secretary, Strand Arcade, Auckland, or iron THE JIA>AGING DIRECTOR, P.O. Box 207. Auckland. LENORA pAKK gTUD THE WELL-KNOWN THOROUGHBRED SIRE, SOULT, By St. Simon—Beauharnaie, by Sea Saw— Josephine, by Irish Birdcatcher —Inheritas. Soult proved himself a good performer in England, and what is better has proved himself one of the most successful horses ever imported to the colonies. In the season 1901-2 sixteen of his progeny were racing, and fifteen of them have won money (this is a record). The amount of stakes won here and in South Africa was over £3,000. This season Soult’s stock have won over fifty-five races, and no less a number than twenty seconds are down to their credit, to which attach over £5,500 in stakes. The following are a few of the races won by the descendants of Soult this season :—Avondale Stakes, Cordon Rouge ; Avondale Guineas, Waibiki; Hawke’s Bay J.C., Hastings Stakes Sans Peub ; A.R.C. Guineas, Birthday Handicap, Great Northern Derby (in record time, 2.37), Auckland Summer Cup, Autumn Handicap (one mile and a-half, 9.5, time 2.37, easily), Waibiki. Until the last season or two Soult has been quite neglected by breeders. A careful perusal of his winning stock will show they were nearly all bred at Glenora Park, clearly showing that he had very few thoroughbred mares outside his owner’s. Owners of mares who wish to patronise Soult this season are reminded that he will only serve a limited number outside his owners. His list is rapidly filling, and booking for the following season. Mares will be landed from steamer or train and re-shipped. Grazing, 2s <sd per week. Every care taken, but no responsibility incurred, TERMS—Twenty Guineas Single Mare, reduction for two or more.
