C PERTOBE is . a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, 6red' ¥y> S* iPliillipd, vEss., Victoria, in 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported), ■ out 'of Miss Napifer, by.DelaprA (imported); Miss Napier's dam, Mra. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). See Victorian Stud Book, Vol. 11., <pl 'jpfc i Panic t Was imported from England -to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3- yrsi old.. Hb was trained and raced,at 4, .and again .put ; to tip stud. When-he was 6 yrs. old, he, was purchased at a' high price arid imported' &■ Victoria, where he had' two more seasops' training and racing. He proved himself f the beat English. horse ' ever ' trained 1 'in 'Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, carrying heavy weights, j- howas both speedy and staying, of a mosfc docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful conatitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick, sorry, or lame, I 'and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, from being in an ,• out-pf-thp-way place, he has not been favored fey many lirst-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and for general purposes his ;atoek is much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination, of:, some, excellent; Btraina of blood, such as the Waxy-Whaleliobej in that famous • line' through Defend}, aud which conies to hifn on'-ithe Bides both sire and dam. On his sire Panic's side there is, as well "as liief good Defenco blood, that' of the game andt stout Yenisoo, the powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, niost excellent of all, that of 'Pantaloon. " The value oi tHe ftotaloon blood' id:Undofiiablo, having furnished, so many.proofs, not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,'and being essentially a ' running strain for some othora occasionally produce one or two first-class animals, few, 1 If- any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. viA,Yejry ; .eraad recommendation;pf this strain .of blood Is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Coppefrthwaite, and 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 Pre:inier, whose: grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out. of the Ardrossah' 'mare (the dam of the 3 mare Beeswing, celebrated not : only ,as a first-class racer, buk also as the maternal ancestress of England'* very best family of racehorses at the present time/viz., the Newminsters). The Delaprt blood is.also very good indeed. Delaprd'a dam,' Fortress, 1 -by Defence, Was the. dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. , ; Mrs, 'Lloberts, :the great; grand-dam of PERYODK, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's' blood ia good, he being by Wandered 1 by Gphanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer waa never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they oonsider that quite sufficient. , PERTOBE, by ■ f ■>< , • • 9W' £ K* ,© j pi er g O W ' i-3' sg- gp<j a 3' 3 &§ sf 2. 2 &■§ P*2 1 s.
