"' * t\ St. Patrick avus i •'..._- : '- " '<*>_&_!. - bred by P. J. Mur--1 tagh, of HaAvke's ■ Bay. He is a dark golden chesnut, stand--3 ing 10 hands 2 inches high, and possesses ■ all the essential qualifications of a sire, A'iz., fc good constitution, substance, temper, con- ■ formation, and vigour. He is admirably j adapted to get good useful stock, as Avell as s race horses'". Ho is considered by competent judges to bo one of the grandest horses ever seen in Ncav Zealand. St. Patrick is iioav 0 years old, is by the celebrated horse The Premier, by Malton . (imported) out of Revoke, mother of Trump Card, one of the grandest horses ever bred in Ncav Zealand. As a two-year-old he won the Champag-nc Stakes at Canterbury, after Avhich lie avus purchase! by Mr Stead for 1500 guineas. As a three-year-old he carried oil three Derbys—Canterbury, Wellington, and Dunedin. At Canterbury bo rail" second for the Cup, weight for age, and on the folloAving day avou tho Christchurch Plato. At AVellington, after winning the Derby, ran Lara to a neck for the Cup, giving him two years and Olbs. Afterwards in Dunedin he Avon tho Publicans' Purse Handicap, defeating Isaac Walton over his favorite distance, giving him lavo years and 71bs. At the samo meeting he cantered homo in front of tho Avondcrful horse Templeton for the Queen's Plate. lor - further performance see Turf Register. Tho * Premier has also been a grand performer on f the turf, having Avon the AVairarapa Stakes, three miles, beating Koarria, Fishhook, and eight others. Ho also avou the Empire ■ Plate at AVellington, beating a large field ; but, like St. Patrick, lie Avas put to the stud . too soon without giving him a chance to distinguish himself, as his family has done before and after him. St. Patrick is ono of tho handsomest horses ever bred in Ncav Zealand. Ho is thoroughly sound, lias a bountiful head and muscular neck let into slanting shoulders, short back, grand quarters, long gaskins, good logs, and flat bono. He possesses all that is necessary in a sire, size, bone, and breeding. He is out of that far-famed mare Phoenix by Gownsman (imported), out of Ikamataki by Figaro (imported), out of Brunette by Riddlesworth (imported). Phoenix lias been a clipper on tho turf. She started in 4G races and scored 41 wins as folloAvs:— First season: I-LiAvke's Bay, 0 : AVellington, 4 ; Pararoa, - 3; Pahautauui, 4 ; Taranocau, 2 ; Foxton, s 4 ; Taratahi, 2 ; Opaki, 3 ; AVeyanga, 4. r Second season: Wellington, 3; Pararoa, 0 2 ; Rangitikei, 3. Her last and greatest ;. performance in the AVairarapa was in the 1 Ladies' Purse, carrying 12st 41b—4st 41b of - Avhich Avas dead weight—ending the career c of ojio of the grandest animals that ever t stripped on Zealand turf. She has r also been a great prize-taker as a brood 1 mare. Sho lias taken eight first prizes, three at Loavci- Hutt, AVellington, three at r AA r airarapa, and tAvo more at Canterbury, c while with Traduccr it can be plainly seen , that St. Patrick's ancestors came from a 0 racing family, and were racers themselves, f St. Patrick never had a chance to show - whether he could race or not, as ho never - started in anything. I had him under pre--1 paration forSJmouths lavo years ago, Avhenthc - disqualification by the Hawke's Bay Racing 3 Club was placed upon mc, and under these circumstances poor Pat had to return to the l paddock. Last season I had to turn him to account, by standing him at the AVairoa, where he served 02 mares, Avliich I also hope r to see him do this season in his new field. 1 Terms : Single mares, £5 ; groomage, 5s Tavo or more, the property of the same OAvner, as per agreement. Every care will be taken, butnorcsponsi- ' bib'ty incurred. As Mr Murtagh has taken the farm lately in the occupation of Mr : LoAvis Evans, with abundance of grass, i owners of mares may depend on getting i their marcs returned in good condition. l Paddocking Is per Avcck until notice of removal is given.
