To stand this season m the FEILDING and KIWITEA Districts, the Thoroughbred Stallion, HANDSOME JACK (foaled 1890). Bred at Sylvia Park, iff- -ißft TTANDSOME JACK Hjß^Hsffj | I met with an acci'^H^P^PfcTTl which has prevented him f rom 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 A ightlight is the g. grandam of St. Hippo, that Nightlight visited Fireworks, and begat Lamcna, who in tarn visited Kobinson 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 Robinson Crusoe, and the result was Sextant, the fastest horse in all the colonies, and the present record for half a mile (47 f 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, 3yr9, 7.11- Ssstant 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 (Auckland), Hawke's Bay St Leger and Auckland St Leger. Badiant never raced. She is full sister to Utopia, Cruiser, and Quadrant, and half sister t« Pal User. Her first foal, Lustre, has won several races, and is full brother to Handsome Jack. Sunshine, the grandam .'of Badiant, won the V-K.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.E.C Oaks), St Leger, sire ot Handsome Jack, 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. Bobinson Crusoe and Onyx are full brother and sister, and Onyx is dam of Nordenfeldt.
