See New Zealand or English' Stud Book for .Towton or Waimea's ancestors. Such is the breeding of a direct descendant of one of the moat successful thoroughbred families of modern times, As the dam of Manuka, Toi Toi, Harakeke, Totara, Ronga, Papapa, Wainui, Kauri, Waiiti, Rama Rama, and Puriri, old Waimea, has indeed left an imperishable name, and it would take a volume to recount the victories 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, lakapo, Long" ] lands, Papapa, Lacenfeed, Songster, Tarnbnrini, and a host of others, whilst in Victoria and New South Wales, the excellence of the Melbourne-Sir, Hercules' cross shone out iu Progress, whose sire, Angler, is from Towton's own sister, Marchkness, and whos) dam, Coquetto, is by Sir Hercules. Claiming close relationship to so many ?rcat racehorses it is unnecessary to do more than briefly mentionThat Waimea waß full sister to Zoe, winner of two Australian Champion Races, also to Cosßack, Bay Middletnn, Flora, 10, and Nulwith, the latter bo woll known iu this district as a aire. That Waimea's sire, Sir Hercules, was also sire of The Barb, and Yattendun, the latter for years the premier stallion of Australasia, who, in his turn, save us Grand Flameur, Chester, and scores of other notables. Towton's Bister, Marchiones?, won the English Oaks, and is the dam of Fishhook, Kuse of Denmark, Angler, and King of Clubs, the lata 1 iB now in the middle Park Stud, Canterbury. _ That tho Peer, Towton's 'brother, iB the sire of Manuka, Peeress, Troy, andDarebin, That Manuka is the sire of Duohess, winner 6! the V.R.O.

That Puriri aa a racehorse amongst our very best performers stood quite in the first rank, winning the Dunediu Derby, beating Bribery, Fallacy, Hippocampus, JJauebury, Dead Heat, tind Spray, au(j to quote from the report» having all his'field beatonhaif a milo from home, won hands domi." Only Dead H-at would oppose him ill the Canterbury St, Leger, which Puriri also won in a canter As an index to the high character Puriri possessed whou racing it is only necessary to state that he was handicapped as a four year old to carry the crushing weight of 9st lib iu the L'antorbury Metropolitan Handicap, 1877,1J miles, and thej started at 2to 1 when Templeton, aged, only had 9st 31bs allotted to him, Ariel, oyrs, 9st 81bs, and Foul Play, 3yrs, only carried Gab 71bs. Add to Puriii's undoubtedly high credentials for breeding and performances, that he stands over 16 hands with proportionate sMtance all through, and owners of biood mares can form a fair estimate of the capabilities of the s'jre placed at their services for the ensuing season--whether for breeding racehorses, hacks, or carriage horses, Puriri 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 pup for the best thoroughbied on the ground.
