Weight-carrying Hacks, and .Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE : is a beautiful dapple browa Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Viotoria, in 1569. , Got by Panic (imported) j his darn, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier {im« ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprtf (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roberts,' by Wanderer (imported). See ' Victorian Stud Booh, Vol. I 1., p. ift. Panic 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 stud. When he was 6 yrs. old; he was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria, where lie had' two more Beasons' training! and racing. , He proved himself the best English horse ever trained, in Australia. Lie ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights j he was botlj. speedy and staying, of q> most docilp and quiet temper, with a wonderful qtfustitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "he 'was never sick,' sorry; of lame," and retired from the tuff without a blemish. At the stud, although from being in an' out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by inauy lirst-class mares, he has got more winhers out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and for general purposes his stock is much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE is .a* combination.- of some .excellent .straips of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Defence, aud 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 IjlQofl, that of the game and, stout : yenison,,.th« powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " The value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished so many proofsj not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but''also to its ' training on;' and being essentially a ' running'strain for although some "others occasionally produce one or two ; first-class animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grAWd-re-commendation of this strain of blood is, tjiat it mixes sviccesofvtlly with, iind w othef3." Thus Writes aiia other good turf authorities agree with him , to the same effect. On the side <of the dam of Pertobe , there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Premier, whosa graudsire, Tomboy, was by. ..Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare. Beeswing, celebrated not only •as a first-cliws raceft" bub/ also as the n}3tS r^a l of Et)glajj4 a Very best family of racehorses at tJ*e> prpsenjp ; time, viz., the Newminsters). The .Dolaprjl blood, is also very good indeed. Delaprd'a d'am, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam of' the Derby winner,'Pyrrhus the First.'"Mrs. Roberts; the great grand-dam of PketobS, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood jqi' good, he being Ijy Waudpi'tftyhy by Mercury^' Ijy ]L v clip§e. so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer TVM never known," and if they, can trace a.podU , to a Wanderer mare, they consider thai " quite sufficient.
