As the dam of Manuka, Toi Toi, Harakeke, Totara, Renga, Papopa, Wainui, Kauri, Waiiti, Uama Rama, and Puriri, old Waimea, has indeed left an imperishable name, and it would take a volume to recount the victorie'a gained by the progeny of the old mare. The mention of Puriri's ancestors will recall to breeders the victories in this Colony of' Manuka, Peeress, Korari, Kakapo, Long* Papapa, Lacenfeed, Songster, Tarn•hurint,'. and a host of others,' whilst in ■Victoria and New South Wales, the excellence., of the Melbourne-Sir; Hercules' cross shone .out. in Progress, whose sire. Angler, 'is from Towton's own sister, Marchioness, and whoso dam, Coquette, is by Sir Hercules, Claiming close, relationship to so many great racehorses it is unnecessary to do more than briefly mention—- ■ That Waimea was full sister to Zoe, winner of two Australian Champion Races, also to Cossack.

Only Dead would oppose him in the Canterbury St, Leger, which Puriri also won in a canter. As on index to the high ciiarao.ter Puriri possessed when racing it is only necessary to state that ho was haudicapned as a four year old to carry the crushiog weight of 9st lib in the Canterbury Metropolitan Handicap, 1877,1J miles, and theaetarted at 2toi when Templeton, apied, only had9st 31bs allotted to him, Ariel, syrs, 9st 81bs, and Foul Play, 3yrs, only carried 6st.7lbs, Add to Pimii's undoubtedly high credentials for breeding and performances, that he stands over 16 hands with proportionate sul-stance all through, and owners of brood mares can form a fair estimate of the capabilities of the sire placed at their services for the ensuing season-whether for breeding racehorses, hacks, or carriage horses.
