Nominated for the Wairarapa Jockey Club Sires' Produce Stakes, TO STAND THIS SEASON, '-** yr LANGDALE, Whareama,the Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, FOALED 1878, CRAWFORD PRIORY is a chesnut horse, standing sixteen bands, with exceptionally good bone, substance, and beautiful quality. He is perfectly quiet to ride or handle, and Tvas bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphettville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)-dam Peradventure (imported), by Adventurer-Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcher—Moonbeam, by Tom-boy-Lunatio, by Prime.Minißter-Mamao, by Shuttle-Anticipation,: Adventurer, by Newminstur-Palma, by Emilius—Francesca. Newminster, by Touchstone-Beeswing. Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stookwell-Lady Mary, by Orlando -Splitvoto (granddam of St. Albans), by St. Luke—Electros?. Orlando, by Touchstone -Vulture, by. Langar. Stockwell, by The Baron-Pocahontas, by Glencoo. The Baron, by Irish Birdcatcher-Eohidna, by Economist, Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFOKD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains tho names of most of the greatest atud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth whb by Emilius, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. ■ CRAWFOBD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her aire Adventurer, is a greatgranddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.e.g. damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworths granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineas, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St, Lcger, better known as " The Parson's Mire," and Agility, another celebrity. When the leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by such sires as Newminster—the sire of Hermit, through the success of his stook styled " The sire of thiAge"—Adventurer, Orlando, Tonohstone, Stockwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcher j and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palms, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to determine 18, could there possibly oe 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 bis brother'a'nd sister, Guesswork and Conjecture. The former won several good races in the Australian Colonies, and at weight for age as-a. three-year-old in the Champion Race of 1883, got to tho end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of Binin. 26see,, many who were.prosent averring that he actually won, the verdiot against him being only a short head in tho great Commotion's favor. Conjeotura recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards' at auction realised a thoußar< ? 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 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 wore obtained in ono of the Australian colonies where the money invested in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling, Owing to rtn_ accident when a yearling, Crawford Prioty was not trained. He was used for ono seasou as a sire, and his stock promise well. As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to be more than oue season in the Wairarapa, breeders are invited to take advantage of the presence amongst them of a sire of the very highest class.
