EVANS. 5 N.B.—Extracts from BelVs Life, of March. 28th, 1874, on the Sires of the Season : " The Gladiatok. —I should never leave off meddling with the Gladiator blood if there was any to be found within a three or four day's journey, and at a comeatable figure. I am sure it is no bad advice to breeders to keep the Gladiator sort always in view, and the great point is where to get at in the nearest form to the old horse. The FitzGladiators are mostly big horses." "Sator is rising 6 years old,in color a rich chesnut, and has an exceptionally good constitution ; stands 16 hands 2 inches high, with great bone and substance, combined with such good knee action as is seldom seen in a thoroughbred." )RELIMINARY NOTICE.
