Eagle. The Thoroughbred Stallion War Eagle' is a dark brown horse, with "black points, stands'ls hands BT indies high ; bred by W. Gerrard, Esq., oj Rapid Bay, South Australia. .?_ _) . Pedigree : ' War Eagle, by Tregeagle, imported, out o£ Ordeal|lmported, 1 by Touchstone out of Mrs Fowler, by Heron, (sire of Fisherman), g.g.d. by Muley out of sister to Pope, by Shuttle, See. This fine stylish horse shows great substance, combined with quality, and is admirably adapted to get race horses, caariage horses, hunters, or hacks. 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. During the time Tregeagle has been in Australia he has; produced many first-class horses, notably Device, winner of the Nursery Handicap at the V.R.C. "Meeting, and of the Shorts and Maidens at Adelaide, this fine filly never having been beaten ; Impudence, winner of the Adelaide Cup and Queen’s Hundred, A 876, -and fourth : in the last Mel bourne; Cup ; Superstition, , winner of the Gawlcr and S.A.J.C. Autumn Handicap ; Cast Off and Lady Ferguson, winners of many races-; Nightingale, twice winner of Onkaparinga Cnp, of the Adelaide Gift, and third in .last Adelaide Cup; Doctor -and Presumption, winners of several races ; also of Lansdowne,.the well-known steeplechase horse, and winner of the V.R.C. Steeplechase at the last Cup Meeting. No better bred horse than Tregeagle (the sire of War Eagle) has ever been imported to Australia, as his father Wild Dayrell, is the sire of Buccaneer, Talk o’ the Hills, Horror, Sec., 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-Hie 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 granddara,. England’s Beauty, was the dam of that good horse, The Hake, also of the Sydney Kingstone, sire of Kingsborough, Lecturer, Savanaka, and many other first-class horses, showing that the blood of Tregeagle 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 flows in the veins of all the best horses of the day. She, dike , Tregeagle, was bred by the late Mr Blenkiron, of Middle Park, Eltham Kent, and imported to Victoria by the 1 late Mr R, Tatfersall, who sold her' to Mr Gerrard, Her ; previous foal, Echo, ran a great horse in South Australia, winning many races, and was universally consirlere 1 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 Tregeale’s pedigree, as well as that of Touchstone and Irish Birdcatcher ; 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 has 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, size, 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. Wellington 2nd. Wellington 2nd is a bright bay, 5 years old ; of a most remarkably docile disposition. Has a splendid top. Is very muscular, and possesses plenty of bone and hair of the right 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 mare imported from Tasmania. Wellington 2nd, as will be seen, is descended from some of the best Clydesdale blood ever imported to New Zealand. The above horses will travel between the Wbenuakura and Manawapou.
