Her head is handsome, though her ears are large, but the forehead is broad, and the eye bold ahd full, giving her a most intelligent appearance Her neck is nicely moulded and her shoulders long and powerful. Over the back she is something wonderful, being nicely ribbed, and having exceedingly powerful but well turned quarters, and a good set of legs, she is indeed one of the grandest fillies that New Zealand has ever produced ; and if anything belonging to the weaker sex is to rival the doings of Lurline and Calumny, this of all the fillips I have seen is the one most likely to do it.” Tonus—£s} Groom ago, ss.
