TO TRAVEL THIS tf\ SEASON PAPAKAIO, WAIAREKA, AND KAKANUI DISTRICTS, If sufficient inducement offers, The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse PE R T O B E, Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, i Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PEPvTOBE is a beautiful dapple j Stallion, standing 1G hands high, "Bred by 11. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in ] lSi>:>. Got by Panic (imported) ; his dam, liestor Grazebrook, by 'The Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapre" (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mr 3. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). See Victorian .'■Stud Book. Vol. 11, p. /f.7. Panic was im- ' ported from England to Tasmania, and put a to the stud at 8 yrs. old. He was trained "J and raced at 4, and again put to the stud- | When he was G yrs. old, he was purchased is at a high price and imported to Victoria, £ where he had two more seasons' training g and racing. He proved himself the best ? Kiielish horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably •well, and won sever: " races, carrying heavy weights ; he was bot_ speedy and staying, of a most dociie and ijuiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that lirstcla.ss English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being iu an out-of-the-way i[ place, ho has not heeu favored by many p tirst-class mares, he has got more winners j, out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vic- ' tori:',, and for L'cneial purposes his stock l L much esteemed. In the breeding of PBRTOBE there is a combination of some exce'lent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalo';:one, in that famous line throug i Dcfmce, and which comes to him on the sid.-3 of both sire and dam. On his .-ire Panic's side there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, tho •powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pmtdoon. "The vai!!« of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having iurnished so many proo ? s, not alone a* to .ts being spe-dy and .staying, b:it also to its ' training on,'and being essentially a ' running strain ;' for although some others occasionally produce on-: or two first-class animals, few, if a:;y, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A grand recommendation of this strain, of bt'-o i is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thin writes Copperthwaite, and o-.her good turf .-minorities agree with him to the same eileet. On the side of the dnm of Pektobe there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Pre-oii---r, whose grandsire. Tombo}, wa3 by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of '.ho mare Beeswing, celebrated not oidy as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's ve>-y best family of racehorses at the present time, viz.. the Newminsters). The Delapre" bb'.od i? also very good indeeddam. Fortress, by* Defence, was the dam of i'n.i Derby winner, Pyrrhu.s the First. Mrs. Roberts,"the great grand-dam of Pertobe, was by 'Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohau) by Merc-urv, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, __ much is tho Wanderer blood thought of, that- they say " a bad one by Wanderer was never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient. PERTOBE, by ■5- £ cw" 2- O? o & " Augur," in tho Australasian, June Isth, IS7S, says : " I could fill the Australasian with the doings of " Panic," and hia descendants. As a sir;: of good, sound, and u-eful stock he has never had an oqual in the Southern hemisph re.
