TO STAND THIS SEASON The Fashionably- bred Stallion, FRI_.CE ALBEET. PRINCE ALBERT is a dapple bay horse, six years old, stands 17 hands i high, with immense bone and hair ; good feet and splendid action. His sire. Prince of Wales, imported from Victoria, is by the unprecedented horse. Cox. Prince of 1 Wales, acknowledged to be the grandest horse ever brought out to the colonies, has never been beaten on any show ground in the world. Prince Albert's clam, Diamond, was got by that famous horse Lincolnshire Hero, imported by the late Cf. R. Kernside. Esq., Tasmania, and was shown at all the principal shows in Tasmania, but was never beaten. Diamond's dam, Blossom by Matchless, imported to Tasmania by J. L. Fisher, Esq., is by Rosses Lincoln. Blossom commenced her career as a yearling, taking first prize at the Great Northern Show, and first at Westbury same year, and as a two-year- • old took first prize against twelve others in her own class, and the same day took " first prize against eight three-year-olds. ■ Was shown for ten years at all the principal shows in Tasmania, and never suffered defeat, and was then sold for J two hundred guineas to go to Queens- 1 land. j The above is the origin of Prince Albert, and his pedigree will show that ( - there is no better blood in the colony. ( He has the Shire blood brought in by c Lincolnshire Hero, which is so much run on in the Home Country at the present time. The four horses drawn first at the Glasgow Show in 1884 had all more or less Shire blood in them, this showing that such sires were proving themselvein getting stock of the right class, suitable for the Home market, and the demand for exportation. 1 Terms : f £3 3s.
