PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown | Stallion, standing 16 hands high, i 5 .. Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in [i kL'uJ. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, J! Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (im. ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delapre (im. ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported).— See Victorian Stud Boob, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panic was im. ported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at i, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchased Sat a high price and imported to Victoria, I 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 and | quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, 1 and legs like iron. Like his sire, that first. | class English racehorse Alarm, "he vai | never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from | the turf without a blemish. At the stud, I although from being in an out-of-the-way 1 place, he has not been favored by many | tirst-class mares, he has got more winner! I out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vic. | toria, and for general purposes bis stock it | much esteemed. , § In the breeding of PERTOBE, there. 1? i| combination of some excellent strains of|| blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, iaj| that famous }ino through D>fenc,e, anijg wh,ich comes to him on the aides of both|§ sire and dam. On his sire Panic's sidtg there is, as well as his good Defence blood, || that of the game and stout Venison, th«|l| powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mosl fe excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tli»| value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable; [jj having furnished so many proofs, not as to its being speedy and staying, but also || to its 'training on,' and being essentially i™ ' running strain ;' for although some otheti occasionally produce one or two nrst-okj animals, few, if any, can oompete wiH Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand ro. commendation of this strain of blood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, al others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, aid other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the side 0 the dam of Pkrtobe there >■_,"; H* srood blood coming in through me rnmier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (ftj dam of th,e mare Epeswiiig, celebnM not only '• as a ! first-class ; racer M also as the maternal anoestress of England very best family of racehorses at the presei time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delaprl ; blood is also very good indeed. Delaprii : dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the damol the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mn, Roberts/the great grandma* of Vwm was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's b'qodjl aood, he being by Wanderer, by by Mercury, by Eclipss. la Tasmatna, ■ much is the Wanderer blood thought 01, that they sav " a bad one by Wanderer n ■ never known," and if they can traoe a pad' ijree to a Wanderer mare, they consider m 1 quite sufficient.
