The mention of Puriri's ancestors will recall to breeders the victories in this Colony of Manuka, Peeress, Korari, Kakapo, Long"' lands, Papapa, Lacenfeed, Songster, Tarnburini, and a hoat of others, whilst in Victoria and New South Wales, the excellence of the Melbourne—Sir Hercules' cross shone out in Progiess, whose sire.

Only Dead would oppose him in ' the Canterbury St. Leger, which Puriri also won iu a canter.
