Stallion,'standing 16 hands high,' Bred by H. PhillipSj 'Esq.i , Victoria, in 1869.! "Got by Panic (imported) ; his Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (imported), out of Miss Napier, by. Delaprd (imported) ; 'Mias Napier's dam, Mrs.: Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). —See Victoria Stud Book,, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panio : was imported frqni; England to Tasmania, and 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 Yiotoria, where ne had two more 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 weights ; he was both speedy-and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his Bire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "h# was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stud, although from boing iu an out-of-the-way place, ho has not been favored by many first-class mares, hehas got more winners out of half-bred ones-than any horse in Victoria, and for .general purposes his Btook is much esteemied, ■; In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a combination: ibf some excellent strains of blood 1 , 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, aa well as his good Defence blood,, that of the game and BtoUt Venison, th& powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most; excellent of all, that of' Pantaloon. " The: value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable,, having furnished ao many proofs, not alon® as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its ' training oh,' and being essentially a ' running strain ' for although some others occasionally produce one or'two first-class ttnimnla, few, if any, can oompete; with Pantaloon as to numbers. A vary grand re.commendation of this strain of blooa is, that it mixes successfully with, and others." Thus writes Copperthwaite,/ *-. ~y other good turf authorities agree with «flHn to the same effeot. 1 On 'tho aide r of the da.m of . Pertobe there is a lot of good blood coming in through -The Premier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardroasan mare (the» dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, bub also as the maternal ancestress of England's, very best family of racehorses at the presenti time, viz., the Newminsters). The Dalaprfc blood is also very good indeed. Pelaprd'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was. the' dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pebtobb, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ia good', he being by Wanderer, by Gohanua, by Mercury, bv Eolipse. In Tasmania, bo 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.
