AT BUSHY PARK, KAI IWI, WANGANUI, N.Z. MR. FRANK MOORE'S IMPORTANT ACQUISITION-THAT GRAND HORSE HALLOWMAS TJECOGNISING that imported blood is in the ascendancy just now, FRANK MOORE has purchased in Australia, nt a very high figure, the Imported Thoroughbred Horse HALLOWMAS—2O. This fine horse will be at the head of the Bushy Park Stud this coming Season. HALLOWMAS is a. beautifully-propor-tioned dark bay horse, foaled in 1908, standing about 15 hands 3 inches, on magnificent bone and feet, with splendid muscular development, and a. bold head well set on. One has only to glance ot his ancestry to see that he in bound to be a successful sire. His pedigree reads as follows:--By Mortagon (sire of Martian. ■ Magazan and Lilyvcil), from Halloween (halttrfster to San Martina), by Ayrshire (sire of imported Trnquair, Orzil. Avr Laddie, etc.). from ganto Maura (half-sister to Jlusa. dom of imparted Jloequetou aud Jlivsku), by St. Simon from Pnlm Flower (sister to .feliiiv llowlet, winner of The Oaks, aiid dam of G'liiltabob). b.v The Palmer, from Jenny Diver (granddam of St. Florian, sire of Ard Patrick), by Buccaneer from Fairv, hy Warlock from Lelia (halfHlnte'r to Lady Augusta, the dam of Volley), bv Melbourne from' Mecanee (sister to AsEanlt and third dam of Oozo-imp.), by Touchstone from Ghuznee (winuer of The Oaks), ' by Pantaloon. Up to the present Martagon's stock have won over £108,000 in stakes, their winnings at last A.J.C. Autumn Meeting alone amounting to .£SBOI, heading winning sires for that* gathering. HALLOWMAS 1 sire, Mavtagon, was a good performer and most successful sire, among his progeny being such winners as Champ de Mars "JE 10.455, Wuffy .£3703, Woolwinder ,£10,827, Cap Martin .£3827, Magazan (imp.) -£3526, Musa ..£1365, Jacqueiiiart .£5255, Buckwheat .£4215, Mintagon, Paddinglon (imp.), Martian (imp.), Hallowmas (imp.), Marlow, etc. The Highest-priced Yearling sold at the last Sydney sales—l9oo guineas—was -a cult by Ayr Laddie, who is by Ayrshire, sire of Hallowmas' dam. HALLOWMAS is three-quarter.brother to the great sire Magazan (imp.), who is • now standing at the Allendale Stud in Australia at fifty guineas per mare. Magazan was bred in England, and went to America where he sired seven two-year-olds, winners of twenty-one j-aees, while during a year thirty-two ot his "gets" have won eighty-four races. One horse by him won a four-mile race in record time—7min. 11 1-5 sec. Successful winners bv Magazan total over 100. Mavtagon (sire of Hallowmas and Magazan) is a brother in blood to Ormonde and Sceptre, and the No. 20 family to which Hallowmas belongs has produced the -following classic winners.—Tagalie (Derby and 1000 Guineas), Julius (St.- Leger), Doriclos (St. Leger). Musa (Oaks), Jenny Howlet (Oaks), Lady Augusta (1000 Guineas), and Ghuznee (Oaks and 1000 Guineas).
