To Stand this Season in the FbildiN'> and Eakoitikbi Districts, The Thoroughbred Horse. HANDSOME JACK , (Foaled 1890). HANDSOME JACK is a seven-year old, stoatly*bmlt bay horse, 1 standing 15 hands 3 inches high' As his name indicates, he is a handsome r 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 I in this horse's pedigree. It would ap* pear almost unnecessary to refer further than to his tabulated pedigree under- ■ mentioned, bnt the family he has de- • scended from are so rich in winning blood that the owner may be pardoned , for jnst mentioning a few facts perhaps not generally known. Radiant, who never raced, is by that stoutly»bred sire Bohinson Crusoe, whose mares are so highly thought of by Australian breeders, and as Radiant is from Radiance this makes the dam of Handsome Jack fall sister to those fast horses Quadrant and Cruiser (sire of theßangi-tikei-breti Lorelei). Robinson Crusoe (sire of EtAdiant) is full brother to thnt stud gem Onyx (dam of Nordenfeldt), and Radiance (dam of Radiant) is by Fireworks (sire of The Mute, who is sire 1 of the Grand National Steeplecha^o winner, Mutiny, and and the Grand National Hurdle Race winner, Dummy, last year), while t-UDshino (dam of 1 Radiance), is nlso daaa of Snnmo. a very successful stallion in >-ew South Wale . A glanrve at St. Hippo's pedigree, who is con?ifiered by Qoid judges to be one of , the best horses seen in New Zealand r.f j late years, will show that Handjomr Jack has really a better pedigrre, as he shows the valuable stmin of Mnribyr* nong blood, which is absent from st. Hippo's pedigree. Both horses are closely related on blood lines. .
