Nominated for the Wairarapa Jockey Club Sires' Produce Stakes, 1889. TO STAND THIS SEASON, Mm . A T LANGDALE, Whareama,the Thoroughbred Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, FOALED 1878. 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 *as bred by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphcttville stud, South Australia, by Gang Forward (importcd)-dam Peradventare (imported), by Adventurer-Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcher—Moonbeam, by Tom-boy-Lunatic, by Prime Minister-Maniac, bj Shuttle—Anticipation. Adventurer, by Newminstw-Palma, by Emilius—Francesca, Newmiustor, 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-Electress. Orlando, by Touolißtono -Vulture, by langar, Stockwell, by TheBaron—Pocahontas, by Glencoe. The Baron, by Irish Bitdoatcher-Eohidna, by Economist. Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFOKD PRIOKY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains tho names of most of the greatest Btud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of his descendants are highly esteemed, and justly bo, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFOKD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventare, through her sire Adventurer, is a greatgranddaughter nf Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g. damof Peradventure, was Kiddlesworth's granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guineis, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of tho Great St. I.eger, better known an "The Parson's More," and Agility, another celebrity. Whon the leading lines of a pedigree are occupied by euoh sires as Newminster-the sire of Hermit, through the success of his stock styled " The sire of thiAge"-Advcnturer,Orlando, Touchstone, Steckwell, The Baron, Irish Birdcatcher; and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to dotermiue is, could there possibly bo 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 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 8 miles in the ; wonderful tune of Sinin. 2(heo., many who were present averring that he aotually won, , the verdict against him being only a short head in the great Comniotion'j favor, . Conjectura recently at Adelaide ran second . for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. Sbe afterwards . at auction realised a guineas, [ Guesswork going to the tame purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward I were sold for two thousand six hundred and , thirty guineas, an average of over six ( hundred and fifty guineas each which would 5 have been largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from com--5 petition according to arrangement after the first bid, and it should be remembered that . these prices were obtained in ona of tho v t Australian colonies where the money invested j in thoroughbred horses can be counted by ( hundreds of thousands sterling, Owing to , an_ accident when a yearling, Crawford x Priory was not trained. He was nsed for , one season as a aire, and his stock promise , woll. , As CRAWFORD PRIORY is not likely to bo more than one season in tho Wairarapa, i breeders are invited to take advantage of the , presence amongst them of a sire of tho vory f higbnst class.
