DISPERSAL OF THE TEVIOTDALE STUD.

IN GRAND NATIONAL WEEK

Messrs. Pyne and Co., of Christchurch. announce in this issue that they will sell on behalf of Mr. G. D. Greenwood, one of New Zealand’s best-known horseowners, his Teviotdale Stud of thoroughbred mares during Grand National week, at Messrs.

Hayward and Co.’s Chester Street stables. There are in all fourteen lots, including four imported mares, all young and in their prime, three out of imported mares by highly successful sires, one by an imported horse, and all of the most successful running families, or themselves good performers or winner producers. There is much to recommend each lot. Tournament, the first one, is a daughter of the brilliant Sir Lancelot, member of a great sire, and racing family, from Maluri, by Malua from Norna, the two last-named respectively winner and producer of Melbourne Cup winners. Ashby and Rencontre are two good winners from Tournament, who is served by Treadmill. Kitiroa is by Cyrenian (imp.) from Hinemoa, by Gang Forward, and dam of Echo, a winner in Australia, Lady Georgia and Orton, good winners in New Zealand, and she also is served by Treadmill. Then comes Lady Reina, a winner herself and grand-daughter of Onida, by Merriwee and she has been served by imported Absurd, one of the finest sires imported to the Dominion. The next is Kolentina, a five-year-old mare by Danube from the brilliant and good stake winner Armlet, whose dam, Armilia, and granddam, Necklace, were great mares. She has been served by Sutala, who raced Desert Gold to a head twice, and has already bred a fine filly to the same young horse, who was retired to the stud in conse-

quence of having a tendon severed through being galloped upon while racing at Trenthem. The imported mare Lady Wayward IL, by Ladas, comes next, and she is the dam of Emperador, winner of over £7OOO in stakes, and Ribble, a winner at the last C.J.C. autumn meeting, and of Conceit, by Boniform, who is the next lot. Lady Wayward 11. is stinted to Elysian, and Conceit to Elysian’s best son, Sutala. Conceit was not raced, and is now six years old. Nauti’.oid, by Musketry from Nautilus, by Traducer, is served by Martian, and is the dam of Mercedo, Pilgrim’s Way, Carolus and Ogier, and of the Danube filly Aire. The last-named, who is rising four years old, has been served by Sutala. Danube, besides being a first-class two-year-old, won the N.Z. Derby, G.N. Derby, and N.Z. St. Leger. Sunglow, own sister to Boniform and Sungod, and half-sister to Martian, from imported Otterden, is by Multiform, and the dam of Zanthos, Moonglow and Splendant, winners, the lastnamed, who broke a leg this season, being very promising. Sunglow has been served by Absurd, and an early foal by that imported horse should be worth some money. Sunglow was herself a winner. Perle d’Or, a winner, and full-sister to Golden Slipper, a brilliant filly, is valuable for her blood. Aura, her dam, was the dam of Auraria (winner of the Melbourne Cup), Aurum (by many regarded as the best three-year-old of his time), and Auria (granddam of Desert Gold). Perle d’Or should foal in August to All Black, Desert Gold’s sire, so has great possibilities. Then comes the English-bred mare by Black Sand called Remission IL, foaled in 1907, from Cosette, by Cyllene from Pemteil, sister to Shotover, winner of the 2000 guineas and Derby, and dam of Ravensbury, winner of over £lO,OOO in stakes. Remission 11. is served by imported Absurd. Next in the list is that good performer at two years old Peirene, by Achilles, winner of over £9OOO in stakes, and more than half-sister to Submarine and Blue River, good winners. Peirene comes from a rare family, and has been served by Sutala. Last in the list is the imported mare Vicella, by Veles, winner of about £15,000 in stakes, by Isinglass, winner of £57,185 in stakes, from Sweet Duchess, winner of the Do-icaster Cup, and dam of Vain Duchess and other winners. Vicella, before leaving England, bred Houdan, winner of the Doncaster Stakes, and foaled Greenstreet on the way to the Dominon. Altogether the stud to be dispersed contains the material for producing many future good winners, and breeders will do well to note the advertisement and procure catalogues of the sale from the auctioneers.
