Dundee, Resolution,Otupai, and that brillia*nt performer Maori Chief Pohokura is also fortunate on the dam's side, for Young Plover, the sire of Pohokura's dam, was not only a tirst class racehorse, but was most successful at the stud, as all his progeny were clippers under heavj weights - be the distance six furlongs or three miles Pohokura's dam was half-sister to that grand mare Deception, the best mare that ever trod the New Zealand turf—ahe ran fifth in the Champion Race in Sydney, in 18G0, in a large field, three days after landing from New Zealand. Vilette (dam of Pohokura) raced with great success as a three-year-old, but was early put to the stud, and became the dam of several well-known winners Pohokura promised to be a great performer, both On the flat and over fences but his racing career was unfortunately cut short by an accident which, though it deprived the turf of what bid fair to be one of the grandest performers in the colony, will prove a boon to persons desirous of producing racers, steeplechasers,or excellent weigrht-carrying hacks. He is a dark brown (almost black) with blnck fountain points, 7 years, stands 35 hands 3i iuches high, his whole contour being handsome, powerful and racing-like, and in his veins runs blood of the mo9t patrician quality, tracing back to the grand Touchstone, whose deserved praise we should never cease to sing. "Touchstone—the renowned 'fouuder of a line of King-i , —who was directly descended on both sides from Eclipsethrough Whalebone, Waxy, and Pnt-8-os on the side of his sire (Camel), and through Master Henry, Orville. Beningbrough, and King Fergus on the side of his dam (Banter), thus tracing fcaek in direct lines to both tl;e Darley and Godolphin Barbs. The winrings of tho stock of his great progenitors, Eclipse and Emilus, were surpassed by Touch9tono. In twenty years, between 1811 and ISCO, he got 323 winners of upwards of 700 races.' DERBY. TEAR.
