Tm mo KUN WITH X HIS MAKES At WAIOHIKA, TJao Arab-bred Hackney Stallion, SARACEN.

McLean, Esq., of Hawke’s Bay, and is considered one of the highest caste Arab stallions ever imported into the Australasian colonies. The Australasian says: “ This is certainly the most beautiful Arab horso ever imported. He stands over 15 hands, and has immense bone, with plenty of substance and quality all over. He is acknowledged to be the very best Arab that ever ran in India, a proof of that being -ihat at one meeting in Calcutta he had no less than three walk-overs, the Indian Herald remarking, ‘ No owner caring to start against the great Crusader at weight-for-age, the Desert I’iate, distance two miles, resulted in a walk-over. Crusader won the Dehra Derby, Umballa Derby, Desert Stakes, Asian Plate, 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, standing 15 hands 3 inches, with plenty of bono and substance. He is very quiet. and good-tem-pered, and from the stoutness of his breeding his progeny are certain to be most valuable either for haoks, hunters, or carriage horses.
