PERTOBE is a beautiful dapplo brovj Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, 1860. Got by Panic (imported) ; his d' Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier | ported), out of Miss Napier, by ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. lining, by Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., x>. J/.7. Panic was j E ported from England to Tasmania, aud p t | to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trait* and raced at 4, and again put to tho stu-i, ; When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchase) at a high price and imported to Victoria where he had two more seasons' trains and racing. He proved himself tho English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and wou several racos, carrying heavy weights ; ho waslsj : speedy and staying, of a most docile i;i 1 quiet temper, with a wonderful constitute aud legs like iron. Like his sire, that fe class English racehorse Alarm, "hewj never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired(m the turf without a blemish. At tho stai although from being in an place, ho has not been favored by iirst-class mares, he has got more winner! out oi half-bred ones than any horso in Via toria, and for general purposes his stock j much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is i combination of some excellent strains t blood, such as the AVaxy-Whaloboue, i that famous line through Defence, i; which cornea to him on tho sides ot l»:t sire and dam. On his sire Panic's there is, as well as liis good Defence bico; that of the giune and stout Venison, li powerful and speedy Melbourne, aud, si excellent oi all, that of Pantaloon, "I value of ■'she Pantaloon blood is unileci;;; having furnished so many proofs, not ; a a to its being speedy and butil to its ' training on,'aud being essential] ' running strain ;' for although somo occasionally produce one or two firsti animals, few, if any, can coinpeto r. Pantaloon as to numbers. A very granisl commendation of this strain of blooil is,t:l it mixes successfully with, and improve;,if others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, i:| other good turf authorities agree with 1 to the same ellbct. On the the dam of Pisutobe there is a lot s good blood coming in through The Pil mier, whose grandsirc, Tomboy, was J Jerry, out of the Ardrossan maro dam of the mare Beeswing, celotow not only as a first-class racor, s also as the maternal ancestress of EngMl very best family of racehorses at the prsaT time, viz., the Newminsters). Tho Ddssj blood is also very good indeed. Dcla}ft| dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the datij the Derby wiuner, Pyrrhus the First. Ml Roberts, the great grand-dam of I'eWl was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's lfc good, he being by Wanderer, by Gobic by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania,) much is tho Wanderer blood thought J that they say " a bail one by Wauilercr'j never known," and if they can truce a gree to a Wanderer mare, they quite sulficient.
