When he was 6 yrs. old, ! he was purchased at a high-price and- imported- to - Victoria-, where he had two more . seasons', training tod racing.' He proved himself the best English horse ever trained' in ''"Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won- several races, carrying heavy weights ; he was both speejiy: ana staying;- of a most idocito andquiet temper, with: a'wonderful cdhstitution, - and legs like iron.; -Like his sire, that 1 first- 1 class i English racehorse Alarms 1 " he : " Was neye'r sick;; sorry,-or'lame," and retired from' the turf/without a blemish. : • Atthostud,' although from. being in au out-df-the-way place, he has. not • been ■ favored by many ; lirat-class mares, he has got more winnersi out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and for general purposes hid i stook ; ia much esteemed. v . ■ .

On his sire . Panic's aide there is, ..as- well.as his, good Defence bloqd, that! of the game'and stoiit Venisonj th« powerful and-speedy 1 Melbourne; and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. " Tha. value of the.

A very, recommendation of this strain of blood ib, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all other 3." Thus writes Copperthwaite, and oilier good turf authorities agree w,itli,him; to ' the same effect. On the side of the 'dam of Pertobk there is la. jlofc'i.pf good blood coming in through The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out. of the- Ardrossan. mare, (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only 1 as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestrissa of England's very; best family of racehorses at the present time, viz.-, ;the :Newminsters). ~ The :DeJapi4 bloo£ is. also very good indeed; Belapro'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dandof the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the Mra, Roberts, the great grand-dam of was ;by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blOodis 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 waa never known," and if they can trace a pedigree 'to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient.
