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 bis tabulated pedigree, and would point out that the imported IVightlight is the g. grand am of St. Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lamons, who in turn visited Eob* inson Crusoe and begat Hippona, dam of St. Hippo, so (hat 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 Bobinson Crusoe, and the reaalt was Sextant, the fastest borse in all the colonies, and the present record for half & mile (47f sec) was established 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 bis colours won the following classio races during 1888 : Great Northern Derby (Auokland), Hawke's Bay St Leger and Auckland St Leger. Badiant 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 full brother to Band some Jack.
