Market.S'ERTOBE is. a beautiful dapple brown taihou, st.mding 16 hands high, Bred oy H.''JPhiilips,- Esq., "Victoria, in iS6i). Goo by Panic (minor ceil); hi"? dam, Upsfcer (■rrazehrnoti, by The Premier (iravorted), out of Miss Napier, by-Delapr6 (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mrs.. Robp'ts, Uy Wanderer (imported). See YiHori-m Stud Booh, Vol. 11. p /,7.' Panic was imported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, lie was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria, •vhere he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the b/>.=V - .-Inglish horse ever trained in Australia, tie ran remarkably well, and won se.yeal races, carrying heavy weights ; he was bn'.b. speedy and staying, of a most docile' end quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that tii.-L-I -dass Knglisi racehorse Alarm, "'lie was I -lever sick, sorry, or lame," and reli ed from the tun without a blemish. At the stir l , although from being in an out-of-the-way ulace, he has not been favored by many Hri-t-elasß mares, he has got more winners out of half-breil ones than any horse in Vic--,nri:i, and for L'enei al purposes his stock is much esteemed. In the breeding of PF.RTOBE there is a onibination of some excellent strains of blond, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in hat famous line through Defence, and vhich comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panic's wde here is, as well as his good Pevenoe blood, hat of the game and stout Venison, the owerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pintaloon. " The value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone is to its being speedy and staying, but aUo co its 'training on,'and being essentially a ' running strain ;' for although some others li'eisionally produce one or two tirst-chy -. lisimals, few, if any, can compete wiih Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, thst it mixes successfully with, and improves, nil >th'.;rs." Thus writes Oopperthwaite, oilier good turf aur.horiti.js agree with hun co the same «-ffuct. On the side of the dam of Pertobe there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Pre:dpr, whose grands-ire. Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam"'of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not oidy as a first-ctass racer, but •lis:i as tha maternal ancestress of England's very best family of raceli.niesat the present fiuie, viz., the Newminsters). Tue Dslapie : bh-od is also very good indeed. Delaure's dam. Fortress, by l>el'ence, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the "First. Mr; - . Roberts, "the great grand-dam of Pp.n iOEf, was by Wanderer, and Wauderefs b10y.,1 jjood. he being by Wanderer, by ColiL-unn, Uy Merer, rv. by l-'clinse. In Tasmania, .so niuch is the Wanderer blood thought o", that they say " a bad one by Wanderer w.--s never known/' and if they '-an trace a peiL•.•ree to a Wanderer mase, they consider that quite sufficient. PEHTOBE, by " Augur," in the Australasian, June 15th, 1878, says :"I could fill the Australasian with the doings of " Panic," and his descendants. As a sire of good, sound, and useful stock he has never had an equal in the Southern hemisphere. His victory in the Launceston Champion Race, and the style in which he carried 10st. into second place in the Melbourne Cup. were performances of merit, and sufficient 1 o satisfy the most exacting that he was a mean order. The soundness of his >to;k BSa become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a race at Launceston in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplecnasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and he is also a son of Panic. Poatboy, Poatman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to mention, are also descendants of the son of [ Alarm." Terms : L 5 s', payable Ist of January, 1879.
