TO TRAVEL PAPAKAIO, WAIAREKA, AND KAKANUI DISTRICTS, If sufficient inducement offers, The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse j E R T O B ] I a Eminently suited for getting Hunters, Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). See Victorian Sized Book, Vol. 11., p. Jh. 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, he was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria, where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the best English horse ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speedy and staying, of a most docile aad quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "he waa never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by many tirst-class mares, he has got more winner* out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and for general purposes his stock ia much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE tkare is a combination of some excellent straias of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Defence, ami which comes to him on the sides _*f ■**** sire and dam. On his sire P&nis's m.i.% there is, as well as his good Defenee Weed, that of the game and stout Veaiao*, fcke powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, xaoafe excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tk» value of the Pantaloon blood is undeaiaMe, having furnished so many proofs, not aleae as to its being speedy and staying, bat ala* to its 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain ;' for although some othere occasionally produce one or two first-elaas animals, few, if any, can compete witis. Pantaloon as to numbers. A very gn_ commendation of this strain of blood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, a«d other good turf authorities agree with .kuo to the same effoi-t O- ■ L ' side r the dam. f p &**,"£ IJ-, U =; f ol ? od coming in through The 'Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was ftv Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the • dam of the mare Beeswing, celobraW not only as a first-class* racer, tat also as the maternal of Englamd'e very best family of raceh^ e3 at the * leamt time viz., the xNewminsters The g j 6 blood is also very good mdee? DelaurVs dam, Fortress, by Defence, was i, O the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the Fir*, j£„ Roberts, the great grand-dam of PBi^ 988 was by Wanderer, and Wauderer'a blood ia good, iie being by Wanderer, by Goh anm » by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, w much is the Wanderer blood thought «f 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.
