Ho is a dark golden eliesnut, standing 10 hands-J inches high, and possesses all the essential qualifications of a sire, viz., good constitution, substance, temper, conformation, and vigour. lie is admirably adapted to get good useful stock, as well as race horses. He is considered by competent judges to bo one of the grandest horses ever scon in New Zealand. St. Patrick is now G years old, is by the celebrated horse The Premier, by Mai ton (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 Champagne Stakes at Canterbury,' after Avhich he avus purchased lry Mr Stead for 1000 guineas. As a three-year-old ho carried oil' throe Derbys —Canterbury, AVellington, and Dunedin. At Canterbury ho ran second for the Cup, Aveight for age, and on the following day Avon tho Christchurch Plato. At AVellington, after winning the Derby, ran Lara lo a neck- for the Cup, giving him two years and Gibs. Afterwards iv Dunedin he avou the Publicans' Purse Handicap, defeating Isaac Walton over his favorite distance, giving him two years and Tibs.

St. Patrick is one of tho handsomest horses over bred in Noav Zealand. He is thoroughly sound, has a beautiful head and muscular neck let into slanting shoulders, short back, grand quarters, long gnskins, good legs, and flat bone. He possesses all that is necessary in a sire, size, bone, and breeding.
