Noimcatai for the Wnirarapa Jockey Club Sires' Produce Stakes, 1889. TO STAND THIS SEASON, AT LANGDALE, Whareama,the Thoroughbred Site CRAWFORD PRIORY, ' FOALED 1878. CRAWFORD PRIORY is a cbesnnt 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 tho famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)—dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventuier—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcher—Moonbeam, by Tomboy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister-Maniac, by Shuttle—Anticipation. Adventurer, bv i Newminstur-Palma.byEmilius-Francesca. Nowmmster, by Touclißtonc—Beeswing. Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stoekwell—Lady Mary, by Orlando —Splitvoto (granddam of St. Albans), by St. Luke—Electros?. Orlando, by Touchstone —Vulture, by Langar. Stoekwell, by The Baron—Prcakontas, by Glencoe. The Barou, by Irish Birdcatcher—Echidna, by Economist. Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFOitD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Kiddlesworth was by Emilias, and any of his descendants are hichly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted, CRAWFORD PBIORI'S, dam Peradventure, through her 3ira Adventurer, is a great, granddaughter nf Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g. damnf Peradventure, was Riddlesworlh's granddam. Manganese woil the 1000 gnineis, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. I.eger, better known as "The Parson's Mire," aod Agility, another celebrity. When tlie leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by such sires as Newmimter-the sire nf Hermit, through the success of his stock styled " The sire of tlnAge"—Adventurer, Orlando, Touchstone, Stoekwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcher; and on tho dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Franceses, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to dcternvue is, could there possibly be a grander combination of all that time lias over and over aaain proved to bo excellent, than the breeding of the subject of this notice. The perusal of CRAWFORD PRIORY'S pedigree calls to mind the porformauces 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 1888, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful tune of flmin. 26jcu., many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdict against Mm being only a short head in the great Commotion's favor, Conjecto recently at Adolaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, heating everything opposed to hor but Malta. Slio afterwards at auction realised a thousand guineas, Guesswork going to the same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Peradvcnture's four foals by Gaug Forward wore sold for two thousand six hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would have hen 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 wero obtained in one of the Australian colonies where the money invested in thoroughbred horses can bo counted by hundreds of thousands sterling, Owing to an accident when a yearling, Crawiord Priory was not trained. He was used for one season as a sire, and his stock promise well. As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to be more than ono Reason in the Wairarapa, breeders are invited to take advantage of the presence amongst them of a sire of the very highest class.
