PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, in 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (im*. ported), out of Miss Napier, by Dolapr6 (im. ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Roborta by Wanderer (imported).—See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. Ift. Panio was inw ported from England to Tasmania, and put, to the stud at 3 yrs. old. He was trainodi and raced at 4, and again put to the stuiU When he was 6 yrs. old, ho was purchased at a high price and imported to Victoria,, where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself the beat English horse ever trained in Australia, He ran remarkably well, and won sovcral races, carrying heavy weights; ho was both speedy and staying, of a most docile and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Liko his sire, that first* class English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick, sorry, or lamo," and retired from the tur£ without a blemish. At tho stud, although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by many first-class mares, he has got more wiunwa 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 Defenco, and which comes to him on the Bides of both sire and dam. On his sire Panio'a side 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, th#.t of Pantaloon. " The. value of tho Pantaloon blood is having furnished so many proofs, not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,' aud being essentially a ' running strainfor although some others occasionally produce one or two first-olans animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, that it mixes successfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, aud other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the side ot the dam of Pertobk there is a lot of good blood coming in through The Premier, who'se grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of the Ardrossan mare (tho dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first -olass racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at tho present time, viz., the Newminsters). The Delaprd blood is also very good indeed. Delaprd'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was tho dam oj the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs* Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pebtods, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood i» good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, bo much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderor was never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient, PERTOBE, by E' 5 bJB ® o o « hJ g ® a • 3 f | •!'!§!

As a sire of good, sound, and useful stook he has never had an equal the Southern hemisphere. His victory in the- Launceston Champion Race, and the stylo in which he carriod lOst. into seooud placo in tho Melbourne Cup, wore performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. Tho soundness of his stock haa become a proverb on tho Australian Turf, and the ancient Strop who won a race at Launceston in February, is a living example* Few horses have gone through such an ordoal as Melbourne, another son at present performing at Queensland. The greatest of all steeplechasers is undoubtedly Lond Hand, and he is also a son of Panio. Postboys Poßtman, Prodigious, and many othor good cross country horses, too numerous to men» tion, are also descendants of tho son of Alarm." Terms: L 5 6s, payable Ist of January* 1880.
