Victorian : Stud Boole,. Vol. 11., p. , 47> < ■ Panio. was' imported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the atud.: When he was 6 yrs. old, he was purchased at a high price and imported to Viotoria, where ne had two mora seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the best English horse ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weightshe was both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, ,that , first* class English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick; sorry, or lame," and (retired from the turf without a blemish. .At the stud, although from being, in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by' many first-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vio« toria, and for geneial purposes his stock il much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a 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 sire 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, moat excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. ''The value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,' and being essentially • ' running strainfor although some others occasionally--produce one or two first-class animals, few, if any, oan compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Cogperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with hint to the same effect. On the side .of the dam of Pertobe there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Pre» mier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, waa by Jerry, out, of the . Ardrossan mare (the diam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer', but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delaprl blood is also very good indeed. Delaprg's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pertobb, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer was never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.

■ "Augur," in the Australasian, June 15th 1878, says :—" I could fill the Australasian with the doings of "Panic," and his dei* cendants. As a sire of good, Bound, and useful stock he has never had an' equal in the Southern hemisphere. Hia victory in the Launceston Champion Race, and the style in which he carried lOat. into seoond place in the Melbourne Cup, were perform* ances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of hia stook haa become a proverb on the Australian and the ancient Strop who won a raoe at Launceston in February, is a living example. Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as another son at present per* forming at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lone Hand, and ho 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 of Alarm." Termß: L 5 ss, payable Ist of January, 1880.
