ECLAT is a handsome brown horse, with great bone, muscular power, and faultless symmetry. As a three-year-old he took First Prize at the Tasmanian Pastoral Association's Show, and since that time he has taken First Prize in his class and against all comers at the Banks Peninsula Pastoral Association's Shows in 1876 and 1877. PEDIGREE. ECLAT, by Camden, out of Prestige, by Premier (imp.) ; out of Sheil-na-Guira, by Rory O'More 'imp.) ; out of Nora Creina (imp.) ; Camden, by Warhawk (imp.); out of Calliope, by JEther (imp.) ; out of Cassandra, by Tross (imp.) ; out of Alice Grey, by Emigrant (imp.) ; out of Gulnare (imp.). ECLAT is closely related to Dagworth, The Barb, Yattendon, and Maid-of-All Work ; the latter Avon over £2000 in stakes, and, like Eclat, is out of a Premier mare. King Phillip, by Camden, out of a daughter of Sheil-na-Guira, is nearly full brother to Eclat, and won several races in New Zealand ; and, lastly, Eclat is closely related to the celebrated horse of the day—Chester. For Pedigree see Turf Register. ECLAT, from his stout breeding, fine action, great bone and superior constitution, is calculated to produce stock fit for the Turf or Road, ai-d must prove a desirable cross. TERMS.

Her progeny have also been very successful at shows, Princess Maud 3rd having taken the Great National Prizes at Ballarat and Kyneton. Prince Charlie, reckoned to be now the best horse in Canterbury, was imported from Scotland by Mr W. Boag. He was bred by Sir James Nickol Fleming, Knockdon, and was got by Prince Alfred, out of the celebrated Darling, dam of Prince of Wales. This horse is, without question, the most noted Stallion ever bred in Scotland, and at all the principal Shows, his Stock are conspicuous prize-takers. Besides the connection between Prince Charlie and Prince, of Wales on the dam's side, the sire of Prince Charlie, Prince Alfred, was got by Prince of Wales's sire, The General, which makes the relationship very close indeed. Chevalier is a beautiful dark dapple bay, and was foaled on December 24th, 1873, and for symmetry and substance he cannot be surpassed.
