To Stnnd this Season in V\c Feuding and Eavqitikbi Distbicts, The Thoroughbred Horse, HANDSOME JACK , iFoaled 1890). HANDSOME JACK is a seven-year oid, stostljsbuilt bay horse, landing 15 hands 3 inches high. As his name indicates, ho ia a handsome horse, tind so fashionably bred that hi> is *-ell worthy the attention of breeders Tiio stoutest strains of the English nnd colonial thoroughbred blood ia blended in this horse's pedigree. It would at>pear almost unnecessary to refer further than to his tabulated pedigree undermentioned, but the family be has defended from are so rich in winning blood that the owner may be pardoned for j«s': mentioning a few facts perhapr not generally known. Handsome Jack is by St. Leger (the well* known winner <> producing sire), whose Ktock have won in New Zealand sinnc tbe season 1895-6 eighty one races, valued at £21.672. liadiant, who never raced, is by tbat stoutly»bred sire Robinson Crusoe, whose mures are so highly thought of by Aus tralian breeders, and as Hadiont is frtm j liadhm*e this nvikes iho r"am of Hnnd» seme .Juck fall sster to those fast horses Quadrant and Cruiser (sire of the Roniji tikei bred Lore'ei). Robinsrn Crusoe (sire of Ridiant) is full brother to that stud gem Onyx (d.im of Nordenfeldl), and ll'diance (dam cf Radi.iut) is by Fireworks (sire of The Mutr, who is sire of the Grand National Steeplocliosp wiener, Mututy, and aad the Grand .National Hurdle Race winner, D;:mroy, la3t year), while Sunshine (dam of Radiance), is also dam of Suuti^e, a very successful stallion in New Scu'-h Wa'««. A glance at St. Hippo's pedigree, who is considered by good judges to bo one of the best horses seen in New Zealand of lata years, wi 1 show that Hand^mk Jaci hfis really a better pedigree, as he shows the valuable strain of Moribjr' noog blood, which is absent from St. Hippo's pedigree. Both horses are closely related on blood lines. . ] i lri,h Hirci- Sir Hrrtules i ! The catcher fiuitcdi 1 ;= LS.iron • , '■- l-.cnncmist . j; Hchidna Mi- :i p ralt | ,'i dl-:ia>e vokau ■ 'r.
