To stand this season in the FEILDING and KIWITEA Districts, the Thoroughbred Stallion, HANDSOME JACK (foaled 1890). Bred st Srlvia. Part. rihwuiHKa TTANDSOME JACK BJJjS^wpwfj I I met with an acciw hich has prevented him f rora being raced. He was very highly thought of and tried to be a horse of great promise, This handsome colt is well worth inspection of breeders, and such a (remarkable chance is seldom offered to them. It is worth bringing- the attention of breeders to his tabulated pedigree, and would point out that the imported iNightlight is the g. grandam of St. Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lamona, who in turn visited Kob« inson Crusoe and begat Hippona, dam of St. Hippo, so that Handsome Jack claims to be bred on the same line, and with the only addition of Maribyrnong his blood • and breeding are identical. Also, that Sunshine visited Robinson Crusoe, and the result was Sextant, the fastest horse : in all the colonies, and the present rec- • ord for half a mile (47f sec) was estab- ; iished by him as a two-year-old ia Christ- , church, 1886. The same season Sextant , won Christchurch Challenge Btakes, '. carrying 7.4, beating Maxim 7.9, Fair ■ Nell, 3jrs, 7.11. Sextant was then sold to G. G. Stead, Esq., at a very high price, and in his colours won the following classic races during 1888 : Great Northern Derby (Auckland), Hawke's Bay St Leger and Auckland St Leger. Radiant never raced. She ib fall sister ', to Utopia, Cruiser, and Quadrant, and : half sister to Palliser. Her first foal, : Lustre, has won several races, and is full \ brother to Handsome Jack. Sunshine, the grandam !of Radiant, , won the V-R.C. Oaks, and is sister to ( Dagmar (winner Maribyrnong Plate], half , sister to Lantern (winner V.B.C Derby } and Melbourne Cup), also to Bade Light and My Dream (winner V.E.C Oaks), t St Leger, sire of Handsome Jack, is now standing at a fee of 30 guineas, and ( is at the head of winning stallions for season 1893. his stock winning L 5.250. St Leger's sire, Doncaster, was sold in England for LU,OOO. Robinson Crusoe and .Onyx are full ' brother and sister, and Onyx is dam of Nordenfeldt. Stock got by Handsome Jack in Auck. land show a great deal of quality. > , Handsome Jack stands 15 hands 2 J inches, and comes from a great family, and his fee (5 guineas) is very moderate for thoroughbred mares.
