He was very highly thought of and tried to be a horso 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 fr ightlight is the g. grand am of St. Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lnraona, who in turn visited Bobinson 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 Maribymong bis 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 record for half a mile (47f sec) was estab iished by him as a two-year-old in Christchurch, 1386- 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 in his colours won the following classic races during 1838 : Great Northern Derby (Auckland), Hawke's Bay St Leger and Auckland St Leger. Eadiant never rnced. 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 fof Badiant, won the V-B.C. Oaks, and is sister to Dagmar (winner Maribymong 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).
