Phillips, Esq., ViototU 1869. Got by Panic (imported); hi« { Eester Grazebrook, by The Premier ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprj ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Hot by Wanderer (imported). See Vitii Stud Book, Vol 11., p. 47. Panic wis ported from England to Tasmania, and to the stud at 3 yrs. old. Ho was tn and raced at 4, and again put to the i When he was 6 yrs. old, ho was purck at a high price and imported to Vio]» where he had two more seasons' trjji and racing. He proved himself the b English horse ever trained in Auatr»l He ran remarkably well, and won sen races, carrying heavy weights ; ho w^ speedy and staying, of a most docile i quiet temper, with a wonderful constituti [ and legs like iron. Like his sire, that W class English racehorse Alarm, "haw never sick, sorry, or lame," and retiredU the turf without a blemish. At tho M although from being in an out-of-tho.2 place, he has not been favored by mi (irst-class mares, he has got more winmj out of half-bred ones than any horse in Tin toria, and for general purposes his stock J much esteemed.

In the breeding of PERTOBE there ii, combination ,;of some excellent strain i blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous liue through Defence, n4 which comes to him on the sides of 101 l sire and dam. On his sire Panic's liii there is, as well as his good Defonce blood, that of the game and stout Venison, tki powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tin value of the Pantaloon blood is undomabli, having furnished so many proofs, not aloni as to its being speedy and stayiug, but ale to its 'training on,'and being essentiallyi ' running strain ;' for although some othsi occasionally produce one or two first-clu animals, few, if any, can compete Ttj Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grandl commendation of this strain of blood is, til it mixes successfully with, and improves/i! others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, atf, [ other good turf authorities agree with hia to the same effect. On the side ol ! the dam of Pertobe there is a lot ol I good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by I Jerry, out of the Ardrossan maro (the ! dam of the mare Beeswing, colebrated not only as a first-class racer, bit also as the maternal ancestress of England 1 ! very beat family of racehorses at tho present time, viz., the .Newminsters). The DelaprJ blood i 3 also very good indeed. Delapri'i dam, Fortress, by Defence, was tho damot the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs, Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pkrtobe, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohannn, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer mi never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.

"Augur," in the Australasian, June 15th, IS7B, says :—" I could fill tho Australasian with the doings of "Panic,"and his descendants. As a sire of good, Bound, 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 lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock has become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a race at Launceston in February, is a living exampleFew horses have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and he is also a son 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."
