McBWBN, Blacksmith, Or, ANGUS ERASER, 1889 Groom, TO STAND THIS SEASON, T LANGDALE, Thoroughbred Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, FOALED 1878. CRAWFORD PRIORY is a chesnut horse, standing sixteen hands, with exceptionally good bone, substance, and beautiful quality, He is perfectly quiet to ride or handle, and was bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang_ Forward (imported)—dam Peradventuro (imported), by Adventuier—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcber—Moonbeam, by Tomboy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister—Maniac, by Shuttle—Anticipation. Adventurer, bv Newminstor-Palma.by Emilias—Francesca. Newminster, by Touchstone—Beeswing, Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stockwell-Lady Mary, by Orlando —Splitvote (granddam ofSt. Albans), by St. Luke—Electress. Orlando, by Touchstone —Vulture, by Langar. Stockwell, by The Baron-Pecahontas, by Glencoe, The Baron, by Irish Birdcatcber—Echidna, by Economist. Whether for rariug or general purposes, CRAWFOKD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradvenlure, through her 3ire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g.damof Peradventnre, was Riddlesworth s granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineas, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. Legcr, better known as " The Parson's Maro," and Agility, another celebrity. When tho leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by encli sires as Ncwminster-tho sire nf Hermit, through the success of his stock styled " The sire of thi Age"—Adventurer, Orlando, Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcber; and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palnia, Franceses, Bee3wing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to determine is, could there possibly be a grander combination of all that time has over and over again proved to be excellent, than the breeding of the subject of this notice. The perusal of CRAWFORD PRIORY'S pedigree calls to mind the performances of his brother and sister, Guesswork and Conjecture, Tho former won several good races in the Australian Colonics, and at weight for age as a three-year-old m the Champion Race of 1883, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of smin. 2Csec, many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdict against him being only a short head in the great Commotion's favor, Conjecture recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. .Sbo afterwards at auction realised a thonsaud guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were Bold for two thousand six hundred and thirty guiueas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which wonld have been largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the first bid, and it should be remembered that these prices were obtained in one of the Australian colonies where the money invested in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to an_ accident when a yearling, Crawford Priory was not trained. He was used for one season as a sire, and his stock promise well. As CRAWFORD PRIORY ia not likely to be more than one season in the Wairarapa, breeders are invited to take advantage of the presence amongst them of a sire of the very highest class, Terms, £6 9s eaoh mare, A reduction for two or more, the bona fide property of sender.
