LARGE AND TOWNLEY, Gladstone Road. 543 "MARORO” Will Stax?) dtthtiss the moment season *t the Stabler lately ucci'wi* sy Me. James Cardbn. Marauht. OWVERR of realty good mares shmill nnt lose sight of the opportunity afforded of the services of such an animal as MARORO—as he is cioselj" rotated to the very best blood now running in England. MARORO is a beautiful liver-colored Chestnut standing Sixteen hands ; and showing . quality of Bone and Substance equal, if not superior, to anything y.t hred in New Zealand. In 1876 Maroro was selected hy his hree <er (Mr. H. Redwoo’, of Spring Creek. Blenheim) to ■ epresent hi-< colors for the > unedin up of that year and notwithstandi g that two Victorian horse* nnd all the New Zealandcracks were amongst the entries, -w-e -at •■once installed flr-t favourite ; and bu* for a very severe passage, owing to bad weather prevailing, no doubt, cnul l l>c entertained but that he would have won the great event. In 1877, as a four-year-old, MARORO was exhibited In 81-nheim, and received the F'RST PRIZE as the Best Thorough *-rod Stallion on the ground. ' gla- ce at 'laroro’s Pedigree is sufficient to sho ’’ that a more purely '-red animal has never yet had his services tendered in Poverty Bay. Kenelm. correspond? t «-f the “ Australasian,” writing from Christchurch on June 20fh last says :— “ In the well-8' eltcrcd and grassy paddock, whici- has been the early home nf so many animals whose names are now historical in the annals of th-New Zo land turf, was a group f five yearlings, three of whom were hv Marom, the son of Towton and F-ir Agnes and who. according to his owner’s acc unt. wa one of the stoutest and spe-diest anim Is he ever had i work. lie was, owing to n series of accifl- nts unsuccessful on the turf but judging from the appearance of his stock, whi h I now saw for the first time he should pr«>ve a good sire, as all his progeny that 1 came across «’uring my visit showed a lot of quality, and were, one and all, rare-legged ’nns. Fair Agnes is as handsome as paint, and, as before stated is the dam of Maroro,. PEDIGREE —By Towton. dam Fair Agnes; Towton hv Melbourne—Pinezella by Touchstone.
