Rav horse by ISINGLASS (3), dam MALI., by laDAS (I>, by HAMPTON, hv LORD CLIFDEN, Serpentine, the dam of Mall by St. Serf, by St. Simon. MARBLE ARCH is a rich bay, syrs old, stands 16 hands, is very bloodlike, and' in colour and character like his sire. Isinglass, who ran 12 times and won 11 races, valued at £57,185, the largest sum won by a single horse in the annals of the TURF. Mall, dam of Marble Arch., was got by Ladas (winner of 2000 Guineas, Derby, Middle Park Plate, Newmarket Stakes, etc.), from Serpentine, by the St Simon horse St. Serf, from Footlight (grand-dam of Flair, 1000 Guineas, and half-sister to Illuminata dam of Ladas, Gas, Chelandry), by Cremorne (Derby, Ascot, and Goodwood Cup), from Paraffin (three-quarter sister to Lord Lyon, ‘>ooo Guineas, St. Leger, and to Chevisaunce, dam of Janette (Oaks and St. Leger), by Blair Athol (Derby and St. Leger), from Paradigm (half-sister to Rouge Rose, dam of Bend Or (Derby, and sire of Ormonde, 2000 Guineas, Derby, and St. Leger). In MARBLE ARCH’S pedigree there are no less than six Derby, five 2000 Guineas, and eight St. Leger winners, besides winners of the Jockey Club Stakes, 10,000sovs; Princess of Wales’s Stakes, 10,000sovs; and the principal big races in England. MARBLE ARCH having the strain of St. Simon blood, should further enhance his value as a sire, especially to nick with Soult mares. Terms: 20 guineas Single Mare, Reduction of two or more, property of same owner. GENERAL LATOUR, Bay Horse, by SOULT (son of ST. SIMON) from MERRY NIF (imp.), by Merry Hampton (son of Hampton) from Aroma, by Craig Millar (son of Blair Athol). . GENERAL LATOUR proved himself one of the fastest and gamest colts that has graced the New Zealand Turf. At the A.R.C. Spring Meeting he won the Great Northern Guineas. At the A.R.C. Summer Meeting he won the Christmas Handicap in record time (Imin 40sec), conceding weight to aged horses. In the Great Northern Derby he made most of the running, .and was onlv beaten a length by Counterfeit (wlio is regarded as the best filly in New Zealand) in the record time of 2min 36sec. In the decision of the A.R.C. Easter Handicap he carried 8.6 into second place behind Kakama (7.6), the mile being cut out in Imin 40sec. and General Latour was only a head from the winner. Breeders will notice by General La-tour’s-pedigree that he has a tip-top strain of racing blood, and will be a worthy successor to his illustrious sire SOULT, the greatest sire ever imported to the colonies. A limited number of approved mares will be taken at a fee of 20 guineas. First-class Grazing at 2s 6d per week. Every care taken but no responsibility. For further particulars, apply to W.
