He is by Soninus, from Shrovetide, by St. Aubyn (imp), from Pancake ; by Sir Hercules, out of Pandora ; by Operator (imp); Somnus, by Traducer (imp), from Hammock (imp) ; Hammock by Orest, from Mother Neasham by Buccaneer. The breeding of his sire, Soinuus, need not be enlarged upon, as he descends (through both sire and dam) from that great horse Eclipse, while his dam Shrovetide has the St. Aubyn and Sir Hercnlcs strains to recommend her. For extended pedigree see Stud Book. Insomnia, besides winning so vera races, took first prize iu 1895 both at Woodville and Palmerston North Shows, and in 1896 at Hawke's Bay he took second prize in the class best calculated to improve the breed of saddle horses, beating Black Rose, Burlington and Leontine.
