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. Whek he was 6 yrs. old, he was. purchase! where he had two more seasons'; training and raping. He proved; himself the lest English horse ever trained in Au'afoaua, He ran remarkably well, and wonseWj 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 sire, that first-, class English racehorse Alarm, "h« waa never siok, sorry, or lame," and'retired f rota the turf without a blemish. At the stud* although from being in an out-of-the-way olace, he has not been favored by'many hrst-class mares, he has got more winners; out of half-bred ones than any horse in Tit). toria, and for general purposes his stock, it much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE, there is • 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" Bire Panio's tide 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. "The 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;' for although some othcrai occasionally produce one or two. first-clam animals, few, if any, can compete withi Pantaloon as to numbers. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood is, that; it mixes successfully with, and improves, alls others." Thus writes Coppflrthwaite, audi other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On the side off 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 mara (tha dam of the mare Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestress of England's, very best family of racehorses at the present; time, viz., the Newrninsters). The DolsprA blood is also very good indeed. DelaprV'a dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the damo2 the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mrs. Roberts, the great grand-dam of Pektobj, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood hi good, he being by Wanderer, by Gohanaa, by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, so much is the Wanderer blood thought of, that they say " a bad one by Wanderer wai never known," and if they can trace a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider that quite sufficient. PERTOBE, by lafe 'Augur," in the Australasian, June 15th 1878, Bays :—" I oould fill the Austral»«*n with the doings of " Panio," and his detj useful stock he has never had an equal In the Southern hemisphere.
