HANDSOME JACK is a seren-year old, stoatlyvbuilt bay horse, standing 1.3 hands 3 inches high. As i his name indicates, he is a handsome y horse, and i-o fashiorably 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 would ap* pear almost unnecessary to refer further than to his tabulated pedigree under--1 mentioned, but tho family he has de- - scendod from are to rich in winning blood that the owner may be pardoned . for just mentioning a few facts perhaps not generally known. Eadiant, who never raced, is by that stoutly»brc<l s-ire Rof-inson Crusoe, whose mares are jo highly thought of by Aus- • tralian breeders, and as Eadiant is from Radiance this makes the dam of Handsome Jack fall sister to those fast horses Quadrant and Cruiser (sire of thoEangitikei bred Lorelei). Robinson Crusoe (sire of Rndiant) is full brother to that stud teem Onyx (daru of JVordenfoldt), and Rtdiance (dam of Radiant; is by Fireworks lsir« o" Thft Mute, who is sire f of the Grand Notional .Steeplechase winner, Muti.iy, atii and the Grand JVntional Hurdle Jiace winner, Dummy, ian year), whiie fc'unshino (dam of } Knc?i.T!rc), is n!so dam of .Swriri-e, a very buccc-sfi;! stallion in Now °ou'h Wale-.

Jac* has really a better pedigree, as he shows the valuable strain of Maribyr- [ nong blood, which is absent from St. Hippo's pedigree. I?oth horsrs are closely related on blood lines. , .
