Hobinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. Navigator, by Kobinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. Horatio, by Maribyrong, by Fisherman. Progress, by Angler, Trident,- by Robinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman, It will bo seen from tho above that 'the stout-hearted Fisherman has been even more to the Australian Turf than Traducer to the New Zealand. The fact that Piscatorious is the only Fisherman and Traducer nick obtainable should be sufficient to entitle him to the respect of breeders. Yearlings by Piscatorious, out of Thoroughbred mares, would bring at auction from 100 to 150 guineas in any part oi the world. Owners of "mares who are desirous to breed high priced youngsters should stick to winning strains and put their mares to a horse bred on the lines of Piscatorious, whose breeding alone would command him a big season in any part of tho world. Piscatorious' first get when a yearling brought 250 guineas, He was shipped to Sydney to take part in the big two-year-old events of New South Wales and Victoria, and since he landed; in Sydney, he has been purchased at the high figure of 700 guinoaa by n well-known New South Wales sportsman, After his performance in the Hawkefcbttry Guineas in Soptembertho '■ Town & Country Journal" stated that tho owner of Kingfish had refused an offer of four figures for tho colt. In speaking of this colt, the Australian sporting scribes always give him the prefix of tho "handsome" Kingtißh. "Augur" in the " Australasian" says he was not within 101b of liis beat form, when he raced in the A.J.C. Derby against Trij dont, In Bawkcs Bay Piscatorious has obtained Champion Prizes two years in succession, and no matter what clas3 of mare patronises him, the breeder is sure to something that will reooup him for his outlay, on

account of his puteness of blood, size and substance. His two-year-olds in Hawkes Bay, out of avorage mares, cannot bo purchased imdel 60 guineas. Hermit is by Nowminflter, by Touchstone. Blood will tell. Piscatorious has more puro Touchstone blood coursing through _ his veins than any other horse living. It is no idle boast to say that Piscatorious Is the beat bied Biro south of the line, for undoubt edly he is, and, moreover, he is in evory respect what his pedigree would imply—a magnificent stamp of a thoroughbred racehorse, possessing great powor, and full of stout and fast blood. No doubt tho Hon, J. White's big success is through keepiug strictly to winning strains. The beßt horse he ever owned was Trident, by Robinson Crusoe, by Angler, by Fisherman. Some sportsmen aver that it is " White's luck," It is no.such thing. It is his sound sense, and good judgment, that carry ß that gentleman through,. There is no secretin the matter, and he knows that to breed winners, it is necessary to stick to winning families. _ _ ; In color Piscatorious'is a beautiful dark brown, with black points, standing 16 hands 2in high, has a neat expressive lead (never a neater or cleaner head Bet on a neck), indicative of a good temper. His neck is long and muscular, with windpipe well detached; his shoulders are deep and well laid back, and good enough for anything. He's a grand topped'un. ■ Piscatorious hurt himself in a wire fenco when a youngster, and frotn tho effects of this accident he has always suffered more or less during the whole time he was training. Despite all these drawbacks, when a threeyear old, he started in fourteen races, won nine, and ran second twice. TERMS - Thoroughbred Mares, Ten Guineas; Half-bred Mara, Six Guineas.
