TO STAND THIS SEASON AT TARADALE. rpl-IE Fashionably-bred Throughbred Horse PISCATORIOUS. This beautiful and stout-bred horse is a , dark brown, with black points, stands about 16 hands 2 inches high, his whole contour •„ being very handsome, powerful, and has a * q neat expressive head, lucrative of a good temper, which he possesses, his neck is long p , and muscular, with windpipe well detached, h< his shoulders arc deep and well laid .-back, and good enough for anything. ~-■ ... ■ Traducer (sire of Piscatonous), a recollection of whose name will never,die while .'* racing exists, for his progeny have proved ' themselves to-be of-the very highest class, . viz-: Lurline, Calumny, Templeton,; Weicome Jack, Le Loup, and Sir Modred (wm- f ning this year" the Sydney Great Metropoli- ■, tail). Fisherman (sire of the dam Piscatorious), as a game and lasting horse may ~ challenge" the best of tho "days that are, ;• } gone.'' Against the best horses in England (arid always carrying top-weight) in 1856, ■ l he started'in thirty-four races, and won twenty-three races ; in 1857, started thirtysix and won twenty-three ; in 1858, started ; thirty-two and won twenty-one. Sometime after 1860 ho was imported to Australia, and put to the stud, and as results have I shown proved himself the Emperor of Stal- b lions of the Southern Hemisphere,, for, ; his descendants, both at- the turf and at the stud, have provod themselves the best horses „ in Fisherman is , the sire and .- grandsire -of the following wonders:— a Sylvia (dam Martini Henry) Maribyrnong , (the most fashionable sire in Australia), n Angler (the best sire in Australia to-day), Onyx (Auckland Stud Company's mare), ._ Lady Heron, The Fly, Robinson Crusoe, _ Horatio, Goldsboroiigh (this the coming sire of Australia), Hamlet, , Cap-a-pie, Richmond, Progress, Cunuamula, Naviga- ' tor, Dagrriar, Ferryman, - Fishhook, Gasworks, Segenhoe, Sardonyx, lolantho, and Bargo (these" two last; mentioned ■ horses were first and second in this year's Hawkcsbury • Guineas.) Two of the best mares r Owned by the Auckland Stud Company are ■ ; .descendants of Fisherman, St. Simon, the * best horse the world ever :saw, runs back to the old Fisherman strain. Fanny Fisher g ■(dam of Piscatorious) is the dam of some of the best horses that'hare .ovor trod on the New Zealand turf. Coquette(imp., dam of Fanny Fisher),- was first put to the' stud in England, where her progeny proved them- ■ Helves real clippers. 'She Was eventually ■ imported to Australia/ and bGcamo the dam .and grand dam of some of Australia's best ,- performers. ■'■Launcelot (sire of Coquette) was a grandly bred horse, being out of : Banter, by Camel—Launcelot. Won the English St. Leger, 1810. Fanny Fisher was the only Fisherman-mare ever .put to .... I' Traducer. This alone should make Pisca- 1 i torious invaluable asa stud horse, and when ; 1 two such renowned strains : are blended to- \ gether, it requires only a few really firstclass mares to make Piscatorious as ; famous at the stud as his sire aud grand sire. Mr , Walters (and whose opinion ought to be , respected in.-reference to horseflesh) always spoke of this horse as, tho " future sire of ' New Zealand,'' and if shape and appearance go for anything he should be right, for ho is the model of a racehoise, without a particle of lumber; add his blood for eveiy requisite—speed, stoutness, ltinning family on the sides of the sire aud dam, biich as cannot be-surpassed. The following pedigice (were he alive) would make poor old Mr I'An son's ryes glisten with delight, for it faiily biistles witli England's best and purest blood:— , aJ- _ Pantaloon laa|U 2H £ ■ 3— a Pasrjninfido, sister Camel |t$ £ to Touchstone Banter : o j ______ £>% s E.v,, brother to _}^*' g-g s tpirub (G.
