Thorough-bred Horse PERT O B E Eminently suited for getting Hunters' Handsome Weight-carrying Hacks, audi Horses suitable for the Indian Market. PERTOBE ia a beautiful dapple brown Stallion, standing 16 hands high, Bred by H. Phillips, Esq., Victoria, fa 1869. Got by Panic (imported); his dam Hester Grazebrook, by The Premier ported), oufc of Miss Napier, by Delaprd (imported) ; Miss Napier's dam, Mrs. Robert* iy Wanderer (imported). See Victoria Stud Book, Vol. 11., 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, ho was purchased! at a high price and imported to Victoria,, where he had two more seasons' training and racing. He proved himself ' tho beat English horse ever trained in Australia. He ran remarkably well, and won several 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 lame," and retired from the turf without a blemish. At the stnd, although from being iu an out-of-the-way place, he has not been favored by mauy first-class mares, he has got more winners out of half-bred ones than any horse in Vio. toria, and for general purposes his stook it much esteemed. In the breeding of PERTOBE there ia a combination of some excellent strains of blood, such as the Waxy-Whalebone, fa, that famous line through Defence, audi which comes to him on the sides oj" both sire and dam. On his sire Pani&'fc sido there is, as well as his good Defence blood, that of the game and stout Venison, tho powerful and speedy Melbourne, and, most excellent of all, that of Pantaloon. "Tho 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 beinf> essentially at ' running strain for although some others, occasionally produce one or two lirst-cIMEi animals, few, if any, can compete with Pantaloon as to numbars. A very grand recommendation of this strain of blood in* tkrt it mixes successfully with, and improves* all others." Thus writes Copperthwaite, mid other good turf authorities agree with him to the same effect. On tb© sido of the dam of Pertobe there ia a lot of good blood coming in through The Fromier, whose grandsire, Tomboy, was by Jerry, out of tho Ardrossan mare (the dam of the maro Beeswing, celebrated not only as a first-class racer, but also as the maternal ancestresß of England's very best family of racehorses at the present time, viz., the Newminsters). Tho DelaprA blood is also very good indeed. Delapwa dam, Fortress, by Defence, was the does oS the Derby winner, Pyrrhus the First. Mre,. Roberts, the great graud-dain of PitMOJUS, was by Wanderer, and Wanderer's blood ia good, he being by Wanderer, l\j* Gohanna* by Mercury, by Eclipse. In Tasmania, eft much is the Wanderer Utaod thoughtookf k that they say " a bad oaa by Wanderer was never known," aud if they can traco a pedigree to a Wanderer mare, they consider tbatt quite sufficient.
