Changes Hands
(By "The Toff.") I THE American pacing stallion Drusus has been purchased by Messrs. McKenzie and , Roberts, of Cromwell, Central Otago. j Drusus is a splendid type of pacer I being wide-gaited m front, and one that goes without hopples, boots or I fancy rigging of any kind. Drusus is by Zombro, the best son | of McKinney (2.11 1/4), while Fricka, the dam of Drusus is the dam of ten performers, four of which have records of better than 2.10. . V . Fricka is by Bingen, 2.6 1/4, sire | of Nelson Bingen. During his stud career Drusus has sired some great pacers. Among them is El Verso, 2.5 1/4; world's champion over a mile §.nd five furlongs; Hal McKinney, 2.5, winner of 25 consecutive races last season; Lonestar, Elverso Maid, Pro Rata, Dusolina, and others. Drusus should do well at his new I home.
