Cambridge, August 22nd, 1898. 23/8 STAND THIS SEASON AT MORRINSVILLE, The Thoroughbred Horse, LEOLANTIS, By Leolinus (imp.)—dam Atlantis (imp). Leolantis is a chestnut horse, ten years old, stands about 16 hands i inch, and is strongly built in every way and possessed of gr°at muscular power. As a three-year-old Leolantis easily won the Auckland Guiueas of 1890, of 150sovs, one mile, in and the same day, one race afterwards, in the Prince of Wales Handicap, one mile and a half, carrying 7at 91b. was just beaten by Cissy, Bst lib fsister to Trenton), in 2.43|. In December of the same year, currying Bst 9lb, he ran a close third in the Auckland Railway Handicap: time, 1.16. The same day he won the Christinas Handicap of 100 sovs. one mile and a quarter, carrying Bst 3lb (as a three-year-old), and beating six othf-rs ; |time, 2 12. Next day Leolantis ran third in the Auckland Derby, and was only raced once after that through meeting with a mishap. However, Leolantis during the time he was on the turf proved that he could gallop. This is not to be wondered at when his excellent breeding is taken into consideration. A glance at the following table will qu'ckly disclose that he comes from a splendid family : I Stockwell, The Baron Irish Birdca'er won 2000gs&.w'n St.Leger Echidna I !.• Pocahontas Glencoe ! iMarpessa \% Orlando Touchstone Selina i [Vulture lx.

The btock sired by him are big, strong and active colts. His oldest gets are four-year-olds, and one of them, Atlantic, won hurdle rcces at Avondale, Takapuna, and the Hurdles and a flat race at the late Gisborne meeting. Atlantic and Leo (who broke his leg) are the only burses sired by LeDlantis that have been tried. However, being half-brother to such a stud success as St. Leger should alone be sufficient recommendation for Leolantis, and, together with his size and substance, he should prove invaluable to breeders for getting racehorses, cross-country horses, hunters, and a good style of cairiage or hackney horse. Terms—Single mare, £4 4s; two or more, the property of one owner, £3 10s. Grarng, Is per week. Every care taken, but no responsibility. For further particulars apply to FRANK MARSHALL, Owner.
