Echidna, the question to doterm'ue is, could there possibly be a grander combination of i all that time has over and over again proved I to be excellent, than the breeding of the subject of this notice, f The perusal of CRAWFORD PRIORY'S i pedigree calls to mind the performances of his brother and sister, Guesswork and Cont jecture, The former won several good races 3 in the Australian Colonies, and at weight for i age as a three.yeai-old in the Champion " t ltace of 18S3, got to the end of 3 miles in the B wonderful time of smin. 26ie0., many who were present averring that he actually won, ! the verdict against him being only a short a head in the groat Commotion's favor, f Conjecture recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cup, beating everything r opposed to her but Malta. She afterwards a at auction realised a thousary guineas, il Guesswork going to the same purchaser for 1 Peradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were sold for two thousand blx hundred and thirty guineas, an average of. over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would ■ have been largely increased had not b Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the first bid, and it should be remembered that these prices were obtained in one of the Australian colonies where the money invested in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to an accident when a yearling, Crawlord Priory was not trained. He was used for i one season as a sire, and his stock promise n well. e As CBAWFOIID PRIORY is not likely to n be more than one season in the Wairarapa, g breeders are invited to take advantage of the ), presence amongst them of a sire of the very >f highest class. ), Ter m, £6 6s each mare, A reduction for 'f two or more, the bona fide property of ', sender.
