STALLIONS TO STAND TBIS SEASON, At the "Windsor Park K»t-te. near Oamaru, THE PURE-BKED Cl/x'DESDALE ST .A I, 1 .'V It I N C E VICTOR. PRINCE VICTOR is a teiutiful, thickset, stoat-hearted, dark-brown stallion, rather under than over 16 hands 3 inches, bred by John Henderson. Esq., Parkmaws, was got by Prince of Wales. The illustrious stud horse of L. Drew, Esq., Merryton out of Rosie, a mare belonging to an exceedingly favorable strain of blood, and is one oi the finest and moat perfect mares that ever locked through a bridle. She gained many first prizes, and at Maryhill, won second honors as a brood mare in a competition that was open to all Scotland. Koaie was got by the famous horse Victor, the winner of first prizes at Gatehouse of Fleet, Stranwaer, Kirkubright, and Wigtownshire. and in ISO t, won second prize at the Highland Society's Show at Stirling, and was afterwards sold to go to Australia. The great breeding lines of Prince Victor are the fine combinations of the Prince of Wales' blood crossed with that of Victor s, which trace back uninterruptedly to the Colomba Stack of 1835. Kosic" granddam was Jean, the dam of Disraeli, who, when a 2-ycar-old, won first prizes at the Highland Society's Show, held at Glaseow in 1875; and as a 3-year-old, he won first prize at the Glasgow Stallion Spring Show of 18 ' 6 - X. Prince Victor last year could boast of four winners at the different shows, local and district performances, such as these, also his pedigree—ancestry, i-hining with the names of the founders of what is known as the Victor breed, should not fail to attract attention to Prince Victor's claims as a sire. Ho is a horse of great substanpe and power, has many points of great excellence to recommend him as & breeder, qualities which arc inherent in the Clydesdale character of the modern school; also, has a lsrg'j share of his sire's good qualities, the full and perfect image of that which may be recorded as a specimen of the genus, and which is virtually extinct in A ictoria since the death of Air. Cox's "exceptionally grand horse, Pri&cc .of Wale 3." There is not too much of him, perhaps, but his make, shape, and liloml are the sureat test of excellence. Hi< fine legs, strong and g'eafc bono, clean, and (lowing with nice hair—the tmo hadgp well-brefl Clydosflalc anil if his sire is a landmark of the anci-nt state of tjiings, Prince Victor is the epitome of the new. and one of the most compact and fashionable horses to be seen.
