Tho Arab-bred Hackney Stallion, SARACEN.

1 SARACEN is by Crusader (imported), dam Belle, by Arab Child (imported), grand dam Mary (imp.), hunting mare. Crusader was imported from India by A. McLean, Esq., of Hawko’s Bay, and is considered one of the highest caste Arab stallions ever imported into the Australasian colonies. The Australasian says: “'Jhis is certainly the most beautiful Arab horse ever imported. He stands over 13 hands, and has immense bone, with plenty of substance and quality all over. He is acknowledged to be tho very best Arab that ever ran in India, a proof of that being that at one meeting in Calcutta ho had no les3 than three walk-overs, the Indian Herald remarking, ‘No owner caring to start against the great Crusader at weight-for-age, the Desert Elate, distance two miles, resulted in a walk-over. Crusader won the Dehra Derby, Umballa Derby, Desert Stakes, Asian Elate, Madras Derby, and many other races. After racing in India for five years, at all distances, under big weights, Crusader retired from the turf with an unbeaten record.” Saracen is a blood bay with black points, 1 standing 15 hands 3 inches, with plenty of bone and substance. He is very quiet and good-tem-pered, and from the stoutness of his breeding his progeny are certain to bo most valuable either for hacks, hunters, or carriage horses. Every care taken, but no responsibility. Terms : £2 10s per mure. Covering fees must be paid before removal of mares. One month’s grazing free, after which 2s per week will be charged.
