Gerrard, Esq., oj Rapid Bay, South Australia. Pedigree :— War Eagle, by Tregeaglc, imported, out of Ordeal, imported, by Touchstone out of Mrs Fowler, by Heron (sire of Fisherman), g.g.d. by Mnley out of sister to I’ope, by Shuttle, &c. This fine stylish horse shows great substance. combined with quality, and is admirably adapted to get race horses, caariage horses, hunters, or hades. Although an accident prevented him racing himself, all his family have distinguished themselves on the turf ; and the recent high prices brought by Mr Gerard’s yearlings in Adelaide show the estimation in which the Rapid Bay stud is held. Daring the time Tregeagle has been in Australia he has produced many first-class horses, notably Device, winner of the Nursery Handicap at the V.E.C. Meeting, and of the Shorts and Maidens at Adelaide, this fine filly never having been beaten ; Impudence, winner of flic Adelaide Cup and Queen’s Hundred, 187(5, and fourth in the last Melbourne Cup ; Superstition, winner of the Gawler and S.A.J.C. Autumn Handicap ; Cast Off and Lady Ferguson, winners - of many races ; Nightingale, twice winner of Onkaparinga Cup. of (be Adelaide Gift, and third in last Adelaide Cup ; Doctor and Presumption, winners of several races ; also of Lansdowno, the well-known steeplechase horse, and winner of the V.11.C. Steeplechase at the last Cup Meeting. No better bred horse than Tregeaglc (the sire of War Eagle) lias ever been imported to An-tralia, as his father Wild Dayrell, is the sire of Buccaneer, Talk o’ the Hills, Horror. &c.. and grand sire of Kisber, Formosa, Paul Jones, and many other first-class horses on the English turf. His dam, Silver Hair, is equally celebrated, being the dam of Silvio, the winner of the English Derby, also of Gartenby Bill, a great favorite for the same race two years ago, and a good winner in first-class company. His maternal granddam, England’s Beauty, was the dam of that good horse, The Bake, also of the Sydney Kingstone, sire of Kingsborough. Lecturer, Savanaka, and many other first-ela-ss horses, showing that the blood of Trcgengle has not only made its mark in the old country, but throughout the length and breadth of Australia. Ordeal (the dam of War Eagle) is equally as well-bred as the sire, being one of the last daughters of that king of stallions, old Touchstone, whose blood ilows in the veins of all the best horses of the day. She, like Tregeaglc, was bred by the late Mr Blenkiron, of Middle Park, Ellbam Kent, and imported to Victoria by the late Mr 1C Tattersall, who sold her to Mr Gerrard. Her previous foal, Echo, ran a great horse in South Australia, winning many races, and was universally considered one of the best and grandest looking animals ever bred in Australia. Ordeal has no less than three strains of the Stout Orville blood in her veins, with one of Selim, both of which celebrated lines also occur in Tregcale’s pedigree, as well as that of Toitchstone and Irish Birdcatchcr ; so that the Whalebone and Eclipse blood-is also well represented in War Eagle’s pedigree, whilst through Kingston he has a dash of the Walton blood. In fact War Eagle lias a grand combination of the best strains of blood in the world, as a glance at his tabulated pedigree will testify, which with the liberal terms at which his services are offered to the public, and his si/.e, substance, and conformation, should strongly recommend him to the notice of breeders ; more especially as he is such a close relation to the celebrated Silvio, winner of the last English Derby. VY ELLINGTON Wellington 2nd is a bright bay, ii years old ; of a most remarkably docile disposition. Has a splendid lop. Is very muscular, and possesses plenty of bone and hair of the rigid quality and for action and style there is not his equal in the district. Pedigree : Wellington 2nd, sire the far-famed horse Old Wellington, is so well and favorably known in this district that he needs no comment ; and I need not say that all the best and staunchest horses on the coast are by Old Wellington, which is a fact that cannot be denied.' Maggie, the dam of Wellington 2nd, is by the old favorite and well known hoise England’s Hope. Maggie’s dam Kate is by Sampson, and Jean, Kate's dam was a Clydesdale marc imported from Tasmania. Wellington 2nd, as will be-seen, is descended from sonic of (lie best Clydesdale blood over imported to New Zealand. The above horses will travel between the Whonuakura and Mnnawapou. E F.
