Nominated for the Wairarapa Jonkey Club Sires' Produce Stakes, 1889. TO STAND THIS SEASON, SOL A 1 LANGDALE, '. [ Whareama,tlie ._ Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, EOALED 1678. 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 Peradventure (imported),-by Adventmer—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatohor—Moonbeam, by Tomboy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister—Mamao, by Shuttle-Anticipation.

Orlando, by Touchstone -Vulture, by Langar. Stockwell, by The Baron—Pocahontas, by Glencoe. The Baron, by Irish Birdcatcher—Echidna, by Economist, Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFORD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud Buccesscs 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 Peradventuro, through her aire Adventurer, is a great

granddaughter ofEmilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g.damof Peradventnre, was Biddiesworth's granddam. Manganeso won the 1000 guineas, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. Leger, better known as" The Ptrson's Mare," and Agility, another celebrity.

and on the dam's aide gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splibvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to determiue is, could there possibly be a grander combination ol 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 1883, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of smin. Sfjjec, many who were present averting that he actually won, the verdict against him being only a short head in the great Commotion's favor, ConjectuM 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.

Poradventure's four foals by were 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 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, Crawlord Priory was not trained. He was used for one season as a sire, and his stock promisa well. As CRAWFORD PEIORY is not likely to be more than one season in the Wairarapa, breeders are invited to take advantago of the presence amongst them of a sire of the very highest class.
