As a two-year-old he won two races at Newmarket, beating large fields. Caractacus is now the most fashionable as well as the moat desirable representation of the Venison blood Kings:on was in every respect bred to stay. His sire, Venison, proved himself a horse of undeniable stoutness, and it is worthy of remark that during his career as a three-year-old he travelled on foot his circuit, which the more modern wonders (Fisherman and Rataplan! accomplished by rail. It is stated upon reliable authority that Venison walked upwards of 900 miles, ran fourteen, and won twelve times in his three-year-old racing season. . . . Caractacus is in every way most worthy the notice of breeders who fancy the Venison and Defence blood (and who could object to the latter especially 1) more particularly as he—as well as bearing a marked resemblance to his handsome son in other respects—has a good temper. . . . He is one of the large stump, but, like his sire, k a nice-sized, level made horse, with plenty of quality and racing points, and most likely to get racehorses.”— Copperthwaite's Sires of the Present Day. Bire of various winners and first favorites tor the forthcoming New Zealand and Canterbury Cup—Envious, Fair Agnes colt; also, sire to Encore, late winner of thei Uunedin Tally-Ho Steeplechase, Mias King filly, and others too numerous to particularise.
