Henderson's WlnsPmilT The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse PER T O B g Eminently suited for getting Huatora* Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, aridj Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stalliob, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, In 1869. ' Got by Panic (imported); his dam Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (i m * ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (im. ported) j Miss Napier'B dam, Mrs. Roberts, by Wanderer (imported). —$M Victoria Stud Book, V6L II;, p. 47. Panic was im. 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 i at a high price and imported to Victoria,, where he had two; more seasons' training; and racing. He proved himself the best English horse ever trained in Australia,. He ran remarkably well, and won sovoraJl races, carrying heavy weights ; ho was Votlh speedy and staying, of a most docile, and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, tharft firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "'lte was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. Afe- the Btud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored. by many hrst-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Victoria, and for general purposes his stook U much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE thore is a combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, in that famous line through Dofenco, and which comes to him on the sides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panic's aids there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, the powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most, excellent of all, that of Pantaloon, " Tho i value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable,, having furnished so many proofs, not alon&i as to its being speedy and staying, but abo» to its ' training on,' and being essentially, a* ' running strain for although some others i occasionally produce one or two first-daem animals, few, if any, can ■ compete withi Pantaloon as to numbers. A very graad. recommendation of this strain of blood ifl,,tllait it mixes successfully with, and improves/, sJi others." Thus writes Copperthwaitej, o:nd other good turf authorities agrea wiihii him to the same effect. On the. aid o of the dam of Pertobe there is. & 'lot of good blood coming in through The Promier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan m.are (tho dam of the mare Beeswings celebrated not only as a fiirst-clasa. :raoer, but also as the maternal ancestress o<: England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delaptd blood is also very good indeed.. Dolaprd's dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dain of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs, ttoberts, the great grand-dam. of Pertobb, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood is good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohatma, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blooc'L thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderor was never known," and if they oai i trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare,,they consider that quite sufficient.
