To Stand this reason in the Feilding and Hanoitikei Distbicts, The Thoroughbred Horse, HANDSOME JACK (Foaled 1890). HANDSOME JACK is a six-year-old, stoutly- built bay horse, standing 15 hands 2? inches high. As his name indicates, he is a handsome horse, and so fashionably bred that he is well worthy the attention of breeders, The stoutest strains of the English and colonial thoroughbred blood is blended in this horse's pedigree, It wouid ap" pear almost unnecessary to refer further than to his tabulated pedigree under' mentioned, but the family he has de sccnded from are so rich in winning blood that the owner may be pardoned for just mentioning a few facts perhaps not generally known, Hanwome Jack is by St. Leger (the well known winner-producing sire), whose stock have won in New Zealand since the season 1895 6, eighty »one races, valued at £21.672. Kadiant, who never raced, is by that stoutly- bred sire Robinson Crusoe, whose mares are so highly thought of by Australian breeders, and as Kadiant is from Radiance, this makes the dam of Hand* some Jack full sister to those fast horses Quadrant and Cruiser (sire of the Bangi tikei bred Lorelei). Robinson Crusoe (sire of Radiant) is full brother to that stud gem Onyx (dam of ffordenfeldt), and Radiance (dam of Radiant) is by Fire* works (sire of The Mute, who is sire of the Grand National Steeplechase winner. Mutiny, and the Grand National Hurdle Race winner, Dummy, this year), while Sunshine (dam of Radiance), is also dam of Sunrise, a very successful stallion in New South Wales. A glance at St. Hippo's pedigree, who is considered bv good judges to be one of the best horses seen in New Zealand of late years, will show that Handsomk Jack has really a better pedigree, as he shows the valuable strain of Maribyrnong blood, which is absent from St. Hippo's pedigree Both horses are closely related on blood lines. ~^e IBir ca t c h e r^»^'^~" I Baon Echidn a __Econo pm^ 5 S Glen oe s^~ p Pocahon- Trampoline Xe ddiDS - — $%£* — S ton M lSS Twick- Kokinghan] ~ „ ? _cnham Ele tress jS S Uatan Buzzard p Daughter Daughter of Pi ton 1^ of .. . t , Melbourne ; J - Daughter of Llsbeth H Pantaloon r^7 P i " — " - Win h"nd ""«" b hound _, ■2 Tou hstone 3 PJ^yne^ De oy « g MU 'T , M^ey ~~ „ < M Alice Moloch Nan y g £ H Haw- Lottery ~ B, 2 __therne Rebecca Dtr of Cervantes <• lon Cain ~ 0 v Wi A d 11 Margaret « § Dayrcl Ellen JTMiddTeToiT- -. -E Middieton Myrrha td . 3 Scutari gSitiH j 2 = Midia Velvet __ ! 9 „ . „ Soothsayer g Mannella Bess * Z ~~ H Heron Bustard " < g- Fisher- Dtr. of Orville 1 O~ ma " .

HANDSOME JACK'S full brother, Lustre, won the Dunedin Selling Eace, 100 soys, also the Dunedin Federal stakes of 200 soys, 6 furlongs, 7 0, in 1 18, beating Saracen, Bay Bell, Kulnine, Whakawatea, and Pique. Breeders must come to the conclusion, t ter a perusal of the above particulars, hat thej are fortunate in having so highly a bred young horse, and one so closely related to all the beet and most valuable strains of blood to be found m Australasia. HANDSOME JACK will be limited to a number of mares. Thoroughbreds 5 guineas, and half breds at a reasonable reduction. Inspection of this son of St. Leger is invited.
