PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brews Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips. Esq., Victoriaf in 1569. Got by Panic (imported) ; hia/tam, Hester Grazebrook, b\ The Premier (kn. ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapr* (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mpa. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported).— See Vietoriaa C/,.J »„„Z. ir n 7 TT *t. /.f .PjhiiV wm imported from England and pat to the stud at 3 yrs. oldJ&He was trained and raced at 4, and again p«t to the atnd. When he was 6 yrs. old, he Vfces purchased at a high price anjjr imported %a Victoria, where he had tw6 more and racing. He proved himself The be** rkably well, and won several ;i »rrying heavy weights ; ha was beta. x:edy and staying, of a most docile aad quiet temper, with a wonderful conatitatiea, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "ha was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the atud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by many first-class mares, he has got more winner* out of half-bred ones than any horse in Tio toria, and for general purpose* bis stock is much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBB there k a combination of some excellent strain ef blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebene, it that famous line through Hefeaee, —-* which comes to him oh f sire and dam.' On hi 3 s that of the game and stoufTfenisea, the powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, Meat excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tae value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, Bet jUom as to its being speedy and staying, bat ah* to its 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain ;' for although some etkeai occasionally produce one or two first-elaai animals, few, if any, can compete wi* Pantaloon as to numbers. A rery grand iscommendation of this strain of blo(y' *•»•* it mixes successfully with, and imp others." writes Coppertbwaite, •- other good turrTruthorities agree with am to the same effect. On the side of the dam of Pertobb there is a let ef good blood coming* in through The Premier, whose grandsire* Tomboy, was ay Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (tk» dam of the mare Beeswing, -celebrated not only as a first-class racer, kit also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the preseat time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delaprf blood is also very good indeed. Delapri'l dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam •! the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrg, Roberts, the great grand-dam of PKRTeM, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer'* bleod il good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohaana, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, u much is the Wanderer blood thought ef, that they say "a bad one by Wanderer wai never known," and if they can gree to a Wanderer maro, quite sufficient, by "Augur," in the Australasian, Juae Ifitb, 1878, says :—"I could fill the Australasian with the doings of "Panio,"aad his descendants. As a sire of good, seuad, ami useful stock he has never had. a* eqaal M the Southern hemisphere. Hia Ticfcery iat the Launceston Champion Race, and the style in which he carried lOst. into secend place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a 'racehorse of ne rneau order. Tue soundness of his stock has : : a proverb on the Australian Turf, '■..:. i the anciout Strop who won a race at La.ui.<.'c.Tion in February, is a living exampleFuw hurstiha-e gi no through such an ordeal a.-i another son at present peril at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and he is also a sou of Panic. Postboy, Postman, Prodigious, and many other good cross country horses, too numerous to men« tion, are also descendants of the son o Alarm."
