Nominated tot tho Wairarapa Jonkey Club Sires' Produco Stakos, 1889, TO STAND THIS SEASON, . A ATLANGDALE, L \ Whareama,the Thoroughbred Sire CRAWFORD PRIORY, FOALED 1878. CRAWFORD PRIORY is a chesnut horse, standing sixteen bands, with exceptionally good bone, substance, and beautiful quality, He is perfectly quiet to rido or handle, and masked by Sir Thos. Elder, of the famed Morphettville 6tud, South .Australia, by Gang Forward (imported)—dam Peradvanture (imported), by Adventuier—Manganese, by Irish Birdcatcber—Moonbeam, by Tomboy—Lunatic, by Prime Minister—Maniao, by Shuttle—Anticipation, Adventurer, by Newminstir-Palma,by Emilius—Fr'ancesca. Newminster, by Touchstone—.Beeawing. Gang Forward (winner of the 2000 guineas, 1873), by Stockwell-Lady Mary, by Orlando —Splitvote (granddam of St, Albans), by St. Luke—Electros*. Orlando, by Touchstone -Vulture, by Lunger. Stookwoll, by The Barou—Pocahontas, by Glencoe. The Baron, by Irish Rirdcatcher-Echidna, by Economist, Whether for racing or general purposes, CRAWFORD PRIORY'S breeding cannot be excelled, as his pedigree contains the names of most of the greatest stud successes known to fame. Riddlesworth was by Emilius, and any of bis descendants aro highly esteemed, and justly so, their genuineness being universally admitted. CRAWFORD PRIORY'S, dam Peradventure, through her aire Adventurer, is a great., granddaughter of Emilius, whilst Maniac, theg.g.g, damof Peradventure, was Riddlesworth's granddam. Manganese won the 1000 guinea, and is the granddam of Apology, winner of the Great St. Legerj better known as "The Parson's Mire." and Agility, another celebrity. When the leading lines of a pedigree are occupied bv such Bires as Newminster-the sire of Hermit, through the success of his stock styled" The sire of thiAge"—Adventurer, Orlando, Touchstone, Stockwell, The Baton, Irish Birdcatcher; and on the dam's side gives Manganese, Moonbeam, Palma, Francesca, Beeswing, Lady Mary, Splitvote, Pocahontas, and Echidna, the question to determine is, could there possibly be a grander combination of all that time has over and over again proved to be excellent, than the breeding of the subject of this notice.
The perusal of (MWFORD PRIORY'S pedigree calls to mind the performances of his brother and sister, Guesswork and Conjecture. Tho former won several good races in the Australian Colonies, and at weight for age as a three-yeai-old in the Champion Race of 1883, got to the end of 3 miles in the wonderful time of smin. 26iec,i many who were present averring that he actually won, the verdict against him being only a short head in the great Commotion's favor, Conjectura recently at Adelaide ran second for the £2,000 Cap, beating everything opposed to her but Malta. Sbe afterwards at auction realised a thousand guineas, Guesswork going to tho same purchaser for eleven hundred guineas. Poradventure's four foals by Gang Forward were sold for two thousand six hundred and thirty guineas, an average of over six hundred and fifty guineas each which would havo ben largely increased had not Crawford Priory been withdrawn from competition according to arrangement after the first bid, and it should be remembered that these prices were obtained in ono of the Australian colonies where the money invosted in thoroughbred horses can be counted by hundreds of thousands sterling. Owing to an_ accident when a yearling, Crawford Priory was not trained. He was used for ono Beasonas a sire, and his stock promise well.
