Eedwood in 1873, and is by Towton (imported) from Waimea by Sir Heroules—Flora Mclvor by ' Emigrant-Cornelia (imported) by Grasu- ( hopper—Manto (imported), Towton (own brother to the Peer and Marchioness) by Melbourne, from Cinizelli by TouchstoneBrooado by Pantaloon-Bombasine. See New Zealand or English Stud Book for Towton or Waimoa's ancestors. Such is the breeding of a direct descendant of ono of the most successful thoroughbred families of modern times, As tho dam of Manuka, Toi Toi, Harakeke, Totava, Benga, Papapa, Wainui, Kauri, Waiiti, Rama Rama, and Puriri, old ' Waimea, has indeed left an imperißhable ! name, and it would take a volume to re- I count the viotories gained by. the progeny of the old mare. ' .. The mention of Puriri's ancestors will I recall to breeders the victories in this Colony ' of Manuka, Peeress, Korari, Kakapo, Long« 1 lands, Papapa, Lacenfeed, Songster, Tarn- ■ burini, and a host of others, whilst in : Victoria and New South Wales, the excel- ' lence of the Melbourne-Sir Hercules' : cross shone out in Progress, whose sire, • Angler, is from Towton's own sister, j .Marchioness, and whoss dam, Coquette, is by Sir Heroules. ' Claiming close relationship to so many ' great racehorses it is unnecessary to do ! more than briefly mentionThat Waimea was full sister to Zoe, : winner of two Australian Champion Races, ■ also to Cossack. Bay Middletnn, Flora, 10, and Nutwith, the latter so well known hi ' this district as a sire. That Waimea's sire, Sir Hercules, was also sire of The Barb, and Yattendon, the latter for years the premier stallion of Australasia, who, in his turn, ' «avo us Grand Flameur, Chester, and scores of other notables, Towton's sister, Marchioness, won the : English Oaks, and is the dam of Fishhook, : Rose of Denmark, Angler, and King of Clubs, the latter is now m the middle Park Stud, Canterbury. _ That the Peer, Towton's brother, is the sire of Manuka, Peeress, Troy, and Darebin, That Manuka is the sire of Duchess, winner of the V.R.C. Handicap, for three and four year olds, beating a good field. That Towton is the sire of Korari, Tambourini, Rama Rama, Songster—aire of Hornby—Atalanta, dam of Pungawerewere, Waiti, dam of Iris, That the Marquis, who won the 2000 Guineas Stakes and St, Leger, subsequently running Caraotacus to a head for the Derby, is now in the Bundoora Park Stud where Lnrline is, and is half brother to Towton, being also a son of Cinizelli, and sire of the Painter, Newminster, His Lordship. &o. That Puriri as a racehorse amongst our very best performers stood quite in the first rank, winning the Dunedin Derby, beating Bribery, Fallaoy, Hippocampus, Danebury, Dead Heat, snd Spray, and to quote from the report " having all his field beaten half a mile from home, won hands down." Only Dead H-at would oppose him in the Canterbury St, Leger, which Puriri also won in a canter. As an index to the high cnaraoter Puriri possessed when racing it is only necessary to state that he was handicapped as a four year old to carry the crushing weight of 9st lib in the Canterbury Metropolitan Handicap, 1877,1J miles, and then started at 2 toi whon Temploton, aged, only had 9st 31bs allotted to him, Ariel, syrs, 9st 81bs, and Foul Play, 3yrs, only carried 6st 71bs, i _ Add to Puriti's undoubtedly high credentials for brooding and performances, that ho stands over 16 hands with proportionate Busttance all through, and owners of brood mares can form a fair estimate of the capabilities of the sire placed at their services for the ensuing season-whether for breeding i racehorses, hacks, or carriaw horses, i Puriri has been at the stud three years, i and was awarded two first prizes and two , champion prizes at Patoa, and first prize at Wanganui, also tho champion cup for the . best thoroughbred on the ground. Terms.—£44s each mare; two or more by arrangement, payable Ist of January, i 1885, Grazinc free till notice. Every care 1 taken but no responsibility.

RUFUS, bred by Mr Walter Morrison, at Manaia, admittedly comes from a pure Clydesdale strain on both sides, and bears evidence ef this by the f ict that, as regards size, bone, powerful build, symmetry, and height, he is equal to the finest horse that has yet been imported, and is acknowledged the best 3 year old colt ever shown in this district, Terms:£3, guarantee, £4los.
