And willjstand at J. &iHDpBOKi Windmill; The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse P E R T O B E, Eminently suited for getting Htfnters, Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market, PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown StaUion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Viotoria, In 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (im-' ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (imported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs; Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). See Victorian Stud Book, Val. 11., p. 47. . Panio was iin-: ported 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 he had two more seasons* 1 training and racing. He proved himself the best English horse .ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several races, oarrying heavy weights ; ho Was both speedy and staying, of a most docile; and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Likehis sire, that; firstclass 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 maros, he has got more winners out of half-bred! ones than any horse in Victoria, and for, general purposes his stock is 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, thtt powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, mosb excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. ".Tho 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 a ' running strain j' for although some others occasionally produoe one or two first-class animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand rq» commendation of this strain of blood is, thai| it mixes successfully with, and improves, al} others." Thus writes CoppertUwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with hiifl to the same* effeot. On the side oj the dam of Ptotoprb there is a lot of good blood coming in through Tho mier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (the dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrats4 not only as a first-class racer, hutj also as the maternal ancestress of very best family of racehorses a,t the present time, viz., the Newminstqrs). The Delapr4 blood is also very gqod indeecU Del%pr6'£( dam, Fortress, by Defence, was thp df\rr\ o| the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Roberts, the greal; grand-dam of PsßTOflßi, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, sq much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that theiy say " a bad one by Wanderer w«8 never known," and if they can trace a pedU gree'to a Wanderer mare, they consist quite sufficient.
