To stand this season m the FEILDING and KIWITEA Districts, the Thorough. bred Stallion, HANDSOME JACK (foaled 1890). Bred at Sylvia Park. ____*tf__l TTANDSOME JACK V^^yHnJ XI met with an acciwhich has prevented him being raced. He was very highly thought of and tried to be a horse of great promise. This hand* some 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 tabal*t«d pedigree, aad would point out that the imported Wightlight is the g. grandam of St. Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lamona, who in turn visited Rob* 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 Bobinson Crusoe, and tbe result wns Sextant, the fastest horse in all the colonies, and the present record for half a mile (47£seo) was established by him as a two year-old in Christchurch, 1886- The same season Sextant won Christchurch Challenge Stakes, carrying 7A, beating Maxim 7.9, Fair Nell, 3yrs, 7.11- Sextant was then sold to G. G. Stead, Esq., at a very high price, and m his colours won the following classio races during 1888 : Great Northern Derby (Anokland), Hawke's Bay St Leger and Auckland St Leger. Badiant never raced. She is foil 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 iof Badiant, 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 Bude Light and My Dream (winner V.B.C Oaks). 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 stook winning L 6.250. St Leger's sire, Doncaster, was sold in England for LU.OOO. Bobinson Crusoe aud Onyx are full brother and sister, and Onyx is dam of Nordenfeldt.
