To Stand this Season in the Feildikg and Eaxoitikei Districts, The Thoroughbred Horse, HANDSOME JACK (Foaled 1890). HANDSOME JACK is a seven-year old, stoatlyvbuilt bay horse, MandiTß 15 hv.nds 3 inclies high. As his natnp indicates, he is a handsome horse, and so fashionably bred that ho is well vorthy the attention of breeders Tho stoutest strains of the English and colonial thoroughbred blood is blended in this horse's pedigree/ It would up* pear almost unnecessary to refer further than lo his tabulated pedigree undermentioned, but the family he has descended from are so rich in winn ne blood that the owner may be pardoned for just mentioning a few facts perhaps not generally known. Badiant, who never raced, is by that stoutlj »bred siro Robinson Crusoe, whose mares are so highly thought of by Australian breeders, and as Radiant is from Radinnce this makes the dam of Hand« some Jack fall sister to those fast horses Quadrant and Cruiser (sire of theßangi-tikei-bred Lorelei). Robinson Crusoe (sire of Radiant) is full brother to that stad e;em Onyx (dam of Nordenfoldt), and R'idiance (dam of Radiant) is by Fireworks (sire ot The Mute, who is sire of the Grand National Steeplechase winner, Mutiny, and and tho Grand Natioial Hurdle Itace winner, Dumtiy, last year), whilo Fuoshine (dam of Radiance), is also dam of Sunrise, a vory successful stnlhon in New South Wale-'. A glance at St. Hippo's pedigree, who is considered, by good judges to be one of the best horeer, seen in New Zealand cf late years, wi.l show (hat IFandsomk I Jack has really a better pedigree, as he ) shows the valuable strain of Maribjr-. noDg blood, which is absent from St, Hippo's pedigree. Both horses are closolj related on blood lines. lush Jlml-.Sirlh-n.ulrs .. I' 1 ? catchrr G;n^,o\i - I Unroii . . _ ; | I'.coii'inust J. : Kchirtna Miss !'rat: 1 1 ' '-'!
