To stand this season in the FEILDING and KIWITEA Districts, the Thoroughbred Stallion, HANDSOME JACK (foaled 1890). Bred at Sylvia Park. .fr .. tffltt TTANDSOME JACK Hltf-SLBKg A I M met with an acciw bich has prevented him 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 Nightlight is .the g. grandam of St. Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lamonn, who in turn visited Hob* 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 aud breeding are identical. Also, that Sunshine visited Eobinson Crusoe, and the result was Sextant, the fastest horse in all the colonies, and the present record for half a mile (47f sec) was estab. Hshed by him as a two-year-old in Christchurch, 1886. The same season Sextant won Christchurch Challenge Stakes, carrying 7.4, beating Maxim 7.9, Fair Nell, 3yrs, 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 (Auokland), Hawke's Bay St Leger and Auckland St Leger. Eadiant never raced. She is full sister to Utopia, Cruiser, and Quadrant, and half sister to Palliser. Her first foal, Lustre, has won several races, and is fall brother to Handsome Jack. Sunshine, the grandam. tof Eadiant, won the V«E.C. Oaks, and ia sister to Dagmar (winner Maribyrnonjj Plate), half sister to Lantern (winner V.E.C Derby and Melbourne Cup), also to Bnde tight and My Dream (winner V.E.C Oaks) % St Leger, sire of Handsome Jaok» 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 L 14.000. Eobinson Crusoe and Onyx are fall brother and sister, and Onyx is dam of Kordenfeldt. v Stock got t>,y Handsome Jack in.
