Stud Booh, Vol. 11., p. 47. I'anic waa ported from Kugland to Tasmania, and pn[ to the stud at o yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4-, and again put to the etui When he was 0 yrs. old, he was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria, whero he had two more seasons' training and racing. Tic proved himself the best English horse ever trained in Australia He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights ; ho was both speedy and staying, of a most docile ani quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution and legs like iron. Like his sire, that first, class English racehorse Alarm, "ho wii. never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turi: without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an out-of-tlie-wjy place, he has not been favored by many lirst-olass mares, he has got more winner; out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vie. toria, and for genet al purposes his stock it much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is t combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Defence, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his fire Panic's side there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, the powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, lnal excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Th value of the Pantaloon blood is uudeniaH having furnished so many proofs, not a!« as to its being speedy and staying, but a to its ' training on,' and being easentialp ' running strain for although some otha occasionally produce one or two first, animals, few, if any, can compete Pantaloon a« to numbers. A very grand ft commendation of this strain of blood is, till it mixes successfully with, and improves, si ' others." Thus wrises Copperthwaite, ant other good turf authorities agree with him to the same ellect. On the side die dam of Piiiu'OßE there is a lot o good blood coming in through The Pre .nk-.r, whose grnndsire, Tomboy, was lij Jerry, out of the Ardrossau maro (till dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrate not only as a lirst-olass racer, b! also as the maternal ancestress of England 1 ! very best family of racehorses at tlio j) time, viz., the Newminstcrs). The Dulaprf blood is also very good indeed. Dehpres dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhasthe First. Ms Roberts, the great gyand-dam of PliM'Oßl, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by (iohauui, by Mercury, by Eulipse. In Tasmania, » much is the Wanderer blood thought & that they say "a bad one by Wamloiwr'* never known," and if tiiey can trace .i^ J " yree tu a "Wanderer marc, they consider ii® quite sufticient.
