Nominated for the Wairarapa Jockey Club Sires' Produce Stakes. 1889. A 1 TO STAND. THIS SEASON, T LANGDALE, Whareama,the Thoroughbred Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, FOALED 1878. CRAWFORD PRIORI is a clieenut horse, standing sixteen hands, with exceptionally good bone, substance, and beautiful quality, He is perfectly quiet to ride or handle, and MS bred by Sir Thoa. Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, fbut-h Australia, by Gang Forward (impoiwja)—dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventuier—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcber—Moonbeam, by Tomboy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister—Maniac, by Shuttle—Anticipation. Adventurer, bv Newminsfor- Palma, by Emilius-Francesca. Newmin&ter, by Touchstone—Beeswing, Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stockwell—Lady Mary, by Orlando —Splitvote (granddam of St. Albans), by St. Luke—Eleetress. Orlando, by Touchstone -Vulture, by Langar. Stockwell, by The Baron—Pocahontas, by Glencoe, The BaroD, by Irish Birdcatcher —Echidna, by Economist. Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFORD PRIORY'S breeding cannot bo 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 Peradven-' ture, through her sire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, the g e.g. damof Peradventure, was Kiddlesworth s granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineis, aud is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. l.eger, better known as " The Parson's Mire." aad Agility, another celebrity. When the leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by such sires as Newminßter—the sire of Hermit, through the success of his stock styled " The sire of thiAge"—Adventurer,Orlando, Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcher j and on the dam's side give 3 Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to determine is, could there possibly De a grander combination of all that time has over and over again proved to be excellent, than the breeding of the Bubject of this notice. The perusal of CRAWFORD PRIORY'S pedigree calls to mind the performances of his brother and sister, Guesswork and Conjecture. The former won several good races in the Australian Colonies, and at weight for. age as a three-yeai-old in the Champion Race of IBf>3, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of smin. 2Gjee., many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdict against him being only a short head in the great Commotion's favor, CoDjectura recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards at auction realised a thousac' guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were sold for two thousand six hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would havo been largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the first bid, and it should bo 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, Crawiord Priory was not (rained. He was used for one season as a sire, anil his stock promise well. As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to be more 111 m one season in the Wairarapa, breeders are invited to take advantage of the presence omongst tliem of a sire of the very highest clasß.
