Bred at Sylvia Park. m*^M& TJANDSOME JACK B^^QHHfJ rl met with an acciwhich has prevented him 4HHPVHsjpfrom 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 ont that the imported flightlight is the g. grandam of St» Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lamcna, who in turn visited Rob* inson Crusoe and begat Hippona, dam of St. Hippo, so that Handsome Jaok 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 Bobinson Crusoe, and the resalt was Sextant, the fastest horse in all the colonies, and the present record for half a mile (47|sec) was established by him as a two-jear-old in Christ* church, 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 6. ; G. Stead. Esq., at a Very high price, and in his colours won the follow. I ing classic races during 1888: Great Northern Derbj (Auokland), Hawke's Bay 8t Leger and Auckland St Leger. Badiant never raced; Bhe ia fall sister to Utopia, Cruiser, and Quadrant, and half sister to Palliser. Her first foal, Lustre, ban won sejeral races, and is full brother to .Handsome Jaok.
