It will be seen from the'above that.the stout-hearted Fisherman has been evon'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 Piscatoriouß, whose breeding alone would command him a big season in any part of the 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 guineas by a well-known New South Wales sportsman. After his performance in the Hawkesbury Guineas in September tho '• Town & Country Journal" stated that the owner of Kingfish had refused an offer of four figures for the colt. In speaking of this colt, the Australian sporting scribes always give him' the prefix of the "handsome" Kingfish.. "Augur" in the "Australasian" says ho : was not within 101b of his best form, whon he raced in the A.J.C, Derby against Tri* dent. In Hawkes Bay Piscatorious has obtained Champion Prizes two years in succession, and no mattor what class of mare patronises him, the breeder is sure to get somethiug that will recoup him for his outlay, on account of his pureness of blood, size and substance. His two-year-olds in Hawkes Bay, out of average mares, cannot bo purchased under 60 guineas. Hermit is by Nowminster, by Touchstono. Blood will tell. Piscatorious has more pure Touchstono blood coursing through his veins than any other horse living. It is no idle boast to say that Piscatorious is the best bred sire south of the line, for undoubt edlyheis, and, moreover, he is in every respect what his pedigreo would imply—a maguificent stamp of a thoroughbred racehorse, possessing great power, and full of stout and fast blood.

No doubt tho Hon, J, White's big success is through keeping strictly to winning strains. The best horse ho ever owned was Trident, by Kobiuson 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 carrya 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 Pisoatorioua is a beautiful dark brown, with black points, standing ]6 hands 2in high, has a neat expressive head (never a neater or cleaner head set 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. Piscatorioushurfc himself in a wire fence when a youngster, and from the 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.
