Bay Middleton, Flora, 10, and Nutwith, the latter so well known in this district as a sire, That Waimea's sire ST Sir Hercules, was also sire of The Barb, and Yattendon, the latter for years the premier stallion of Australasia, who, in his turn, ga\e us Grand Flameur, Chester, and scores of other notables.

Only Dead H-at would oppose him in the Canterbury St, Logor, 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 handicapned as a four year old to carry tho crushing weight of 9st lib in the Canterbury Metropolitan Handicap, 1877,1} miles, and tliej started at 2to 1 when Templeton, aged, only had 9st 31bs allotted to him, Ariel, syrs, 9st 81bs, and Foul Play, 3yrs, only carried Gst 71bs, _ Add to Puriri's undoubtedly high credentials for broeding and performances, that ho stands over 16 hands with proportionate sul-stance all through, and ownors of brood mares can form a fair estimate of the capabilities of the sjre placecj at their services for the ensuing season—wliether fpr brepding racehorses, hacks, or carriage horses, 1 uiiri has been at the stud three years, and was awarded two first prizes and two champion prizes at Patea, and first prize at Wanganui, also the champion cup for best thoroughbred on the ground.
