Got by Panic (imported); his <W Hester Grazebrook,. by The Premier (ijJ ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprgjim ported); Miss Napitr'3' danf,' Mrs. Kobe* by Wanderer (imported).—See Fidonj, Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. J/.7. Panic was i a , ported from, England to Tasmania,, and p ( | to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was ind raced at 4, and again put to the 1 etui Wheu he was 6 yrs. old, hj? waa. purohaul at a high price and imported to Victoria where he had . two more seasons' trairand racing. He proved himself the l„ t English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights j he wm both speedy and staying, of a most docile anj quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that fint. class English' racehorse Alarm, "ha *h never sick, sorry, or lame, ".and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an oht-of-the-vtsy place, he has not been favored by many first-class '■ mares, he has got'more winnett out of Ijalf-bred ones than any horse in Vic. toria, and tor general, purpose? his stock ii much esteemed. lv •> ; In th6.breeding of PERTOBE; there is i combination of some : excellent' strains ci blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line, through v Defence, and which'comes, to him on the sides of 101 l sire and dam. On his sire Panic's there is, as well as his good..Defence blood, that of the game and stout; Venison, powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, ir excellent of all,,that of Pantaloon. "Tit value of the Pantaloon blooji is undeniably having furnished 'so many proofs,, not ate as to its being speedy and staying, but tli to its 'training on,' and being esiintiallii 'running strain ;' for although soirie Otis occasionally produce one or two iirst-cla animals, few, if any, can compete «l Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand it commendation of this strain of blood is, tli it mixes successfully with, and improves, il Thus writes Copperthwaite, si other good turf authorities agree with tin to. the same effect. On the side c! the dam of Pertobe there ia a lot e! good blood coming in through The Premier, whose . grandsire, .Tomboy, « kj Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of Eng' very best family of racehorses at the p time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delapri blood, is also very good indeed. Delaprf'i dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam o! the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mn, Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pektobi, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ii good, ne being by Wanderer, by Gohami, by Mercury, by Eolipse. In Tasmania, » much is' the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer vra never known," and if they can, trace a pal l gree to a Wanderer mare, they' consider tkit quite sufficient. PERTOBE, by - g-l-g I?' J ■ " Augur," in the Australasian, June IS" 1878, says " I could fill the Australasian with'-the 'doings 'of "'Panic;" and his de* cendants.
