He won many prizes, includ - ing champions won at Auckland and Waikato Shows. His' breeding is undeniable, being got by Benmore, No. 302, dam—Christina F. McCormick No. 663 Ben More 302 was a well-known champion in his time: Tie won nearly fifty first and champi <n prizes in Australia and New Zealand, and was the sire of many first-class horses.

He shows immense power combined with good quality and soundness fMi any '.hereditary infections, and breeding should insure his success - as a sire, as oyery strain on either side of his' lineage is of the best, and to enumerate the prizes won by them would fill a volume. His pedigree could be extended to, an indefinate length; as. General Fleming, 305; Crown Prince, 430] Yeung B;ajiker; 1;i Lord Salisbury (imp.), 114; and
