Henderson's Windmill The fashionably - bred and very superior Thorough-bred Horse PE R T 0 BE Eminently suited for getting Hunters' Handsome Weight-carrying Haoks, and Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE is a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillipß, Esq., Victoria, in 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam, Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier (im. ported), out of Miss Napier, by Delaprf (im. ported); Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. ltoborts, ay Wanderer (imported), See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., p. 47. Panio was im. ported from England to Tasmania, and put to the stud at 3 yra. old. He was trained and raced at 4, and again put to the stud. When he was 6 yrs. old, ho was purchased .at a high price and impoVted to Viotoria, where he had two inoro 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 docilo and quiet temper, with a wonderful constitution, and legs like iron. Like his sire, that firstclass English racehorse Alarm, "he was never sick, sorry, or lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the although from being in an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by many first-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vio. toria, and for general purposes hia stook la much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there is a • combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the 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, tha powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tho value of the Pantaloon blood is undeniable, having furnished bo many proofs, not alone as to its being speedy and staying, but also to its 'training on,' and being essentially a ' running strain for although some others occasionally produce one or two first-class animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood iB, that it mixes suooessfully with, and improves, all others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, and other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the aide o£ the dam of Pertobe there is a lot of 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 as a first-class raoer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). Tho Delapr6 blood is also very good indeed. Delapros dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the dam of the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pertobe, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ist good, he being by Wandorer, by Gohann&j by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer wan never known," and if they can trace a podU gree to a Wanderer mare, they consider thai quite sufficient.

As a Biro of good, sound, useful stock he has never had an equal in the Southern hemisphere. His victory > n the Launceston Champion Race, and the style in which he carried lOst. into second place in the Melbourne Cup, were performances of merit, and sufficient to satisfy the most exacting that he was a racehorse of no mean order. The soundness of his stock become a proverb on the Australian Turf, and the anoient Strop who won a race « Launceston in February, is a living example Few horses have gone through such an ordeal as Melbourne, another son at present per* forming at Queensland.
