Sir Hercules, the sire of Vsumea, was also sire of The Barb, known in Australia as the “mighty Barb,” Yattendon (sire of Chester), and many other good performers. He has left a name throughout the Australian colonies, which time will never efface; and for the future of New.Zealand no mare has done •more than his daughter Waimea.
