(Vide Stud Book.) Head Shot is a beautiful golden clicsimt, standing 16 hands high, with a splendid temper. Head Shot’s stock in the Nelson and Marlborough provinces are second to none in New Zealand, as much as 800 guineas having boon refused for a yearling filly by him out of Fidget—this being the filly of which “ Augur” writes in the ‘ Australasian’ of X3th May: “ This filly is by Dead Shot, out of Fidget, by Sir Hercules, and, like many of the descendants ot the last-named, she is a chesnut, standing nearly 15 hands 2 inches. Her head is handsome, though her ears arc large, but the forehead is broad, and the eye bolcl and 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 lias ever produced ; and if anything belonging to the weaker sex is to rival the doings of Lurline and Calumny, this of all the fillies I have seen is the one most likely to do it.” Terms—£o; Groomagc, ss.
