The author in compiling the tabulated pedigrees of the sires to be found in this work has been induced to do so in hopes of their proving useful to those engaged in breeding for the turf, or who are engaged in fostering this most popular national amusement. Very many of our largest breeders seem to ignore the lessons taught in the Stud Book and Racing Calender, and we commend to all the necessity of obsei-ving what sources and what course of breeding have produced the best results in England, which may be most properly called the home of the thoroughbred horse. We have given our own views as to the best mode to successfully breed the race-horse and the best mode to select a stallion and brood mare, and the treatment of the same both in the stud and on the farm. We do not expect that all will agree with us, but the ideas expressed and plans suggested will do away with many of the chances incident to breeding. There is much uncertainty, and always will be, attending the best and most careful mode of breeding, and this opinion is strongly exemplified in the frequent occurrence of one horse being of very high form and an excellent race-horse, and a full brother or sister being only ordinary; yet we differ from a great many in the opinion that breeding depends entirely upon chance. Acci- dents and other unforeseen causes, some of them so unimportant and abstruse as to escape our attention or come within our knowledge, may prevent the best bred and most promising animal from arriving at its natural size and true shape, and a little difference in conformatlou, symmetry, and constitution may make a decided difference in goodness and speed. The foal may be weak and have a delicate constitution owing to tbe dam being starved and exposed to hardships while carrying it, or it may have been improperly reared. This only proves that great care and knowledge are necessary in rearing horses for the turf, as well as judgment and attention in selecting mares and stallions from which to breed. The chief points are pure blood, conformation, consti- tution, racing lineage, and hereditary soundness. The nearer we get to true shape with the other points combined, the more certainly we will arrive at excellence. We often find a large horse of good shape and racing symmetry; but where there is -ne good large one, there are a dozen small or medium sized ones. The greater the size, when com- bined with the good qualities, the greater the excellence and his powers, for a good little horse cannot cope with a great good one. Hence size with constitution, soundness, and symmetry constitutes the height of perfection While we advocate and commend pure blood, we are convinced that very often pedigree is the only point at which Fome breeders look, ignoring altogether shape and action; hence failures. The establishment of reputation by a stallion depends on his having good mares, at first, for if he has only bad and indifferent ones, the produce will be in low form and a disappointment, and the horse condemned as a failure. To prove this, it is only necessary to cite the Vm INTKODtrCTJtOlf. Godolphin Arabian and Marske; the former but for the accident of covering Roxana and getting Lath would liave died unknown, while Marske who had been standing for half a guinea and was sold for twenty guineas, after siring Eclipse was sold for one thousand guineas and covered at one hundred guineas. Squirt, the sire of Marske, had been ordered shot and was saved by the intercession of his groom ; he afterwards got Marske, Syphon, and the celebrated Squirt Marc the dam of Maiden Puiity, Pump- kin, and other famous horses. That many good race-horses have proved failures as stallions, and many poor race-horses successful ones no one can doubt, as instance Lath, who was a famous race-horse but an indifferent stallion, whilst his full brother Cade, was an indifferent race-horse but a most excellent stallion. Flying Childers dazzled the world by the splendor of his career on the turf, yet his brother, Bartlet's Childers proved far the better stallion. Accordiug to my notions, no horse can be a good race-horse or a successful stallion, that does not possess great symmetry, by which I do not mean beauty, but a show of all those points, such as conformation, length, power and muscle justly united. Notwithstanding it is often asserted that horses run in all shapes, it cannot be denied they run better and more frequently where they are well and truly shaped, and of tried and approved conformation. A horse may appear to the eye of ordinary judges very plain and ill-shaped, and still be in high form, and to the eye of a connoisseur right in all the material points for racing purposes; the machinery properly put together is the point. Chances and accidents are closely allied to all pursuits and more particularly to breeding for the turf, and luck very frequently predominates over skill and judgment, and whilst breediug cannot be made a certainty or re- duced to a science it should not be left to chance. It cannot be too minutely studied, investigated or attended to in all its branches, and the breeder who selects his mares and stallions with care, attention and judgment as to purity of pedigree, sym- metry of form, temper, soundness and constitution, in fact, those possessing all those essential qualities of speed and stoutness, must be more successful than one who breeds at haphazard and pays no regard to these established rules, at the same time crossing and preserving the blood of his mares judiciously, and aiming to remedy the defects, deficient properties and inferior qualities of his mares, by the superior conformation, sjTnmetry, admirable properties, and brilliant qualities of the stallion, or vice versa; those who do this will be more likely to produce a more symmetrical-, high-typed and successful race-horse than those who pay no attention to these points. Speculative experiments may suit those of large fortunes, but the thinking and judicious breeder, aware of the great expense, constant and unremitting attention necessary for success, will confine himself to the established practise of men whose experience, judgment, atten- tion and success in breeding are worthy of imitation. It is a matter of opinion whether the offspring partake most of the sire or dam. There is no doubt but that they par- take of both, though very often more of the one than the other. Some of the mares breed more after themselves, others more after the stallion, then again one foal will partake more after the mare and the next partake most after the horse. It also occasionally happens that the foal will color and mark after the grandsire or grandam or some other more distant ci'oss, and partake of their qualities, hence the necessity of pure blood, conformation and soundness through many generations. To appreciate what care, attention and sound judgment have done for the thoroughbred horse, it is only necessary for us to look at his origin ; unquestionably the thoroughbred horse aa he now INTEODUCTIOK. ix exists in his great perfection originated from a cross of the Arabian Barb and Turkish horse, the representative scions being the Godolphin and Darley Arabians; the former generally conceded to be a "Baib," was the sire of Lalh, Cade, Regains, Blank, Ba- braham, Bajazet, Old England, etc. It is said Mr. Coke brought him from France, and that he had actually drawn a cart in the streets of Paris. Mr. Coke gave him to Mr. Williams, keeper of the St. James Coffee House, by whom he was presented to Lord Godolphin, hence his name. He was teaser to Hobgoblin in the years 1730 and 1731, and on the latter refusing to cover Roxana by the Bald Galloway, she was bred to the Arabian, and from that cover produced Lath, the first colt ever credited to him, which brought him into prominent notice. He was represented 15 hands high. The Dai ley Arabian was the property of Mr. Darley, of Buttercramb, near York ; he was the sire of the great Flying Childers, supposed to be the fastest horse in the world, sire of Second, Snip Blacklegs etc., Bartlet's Childers and Almanzor. Bartlefs Childers never raced, but he was famous as a stallion ; he was sire of Squirt (the sire of Marske and Syphon), and the Little Hartley Mare, the dam of Janus, Blank, Old England, Slouch, etc. The Curwen Bay Barb was a present to Louis XIV. of France from the Emperor of Morocco, and was brought into England by Mr. Curwen. St. Victor Barb was the sire of the Bald Galloway, and he was the sire of Roxana that brought the Godolphin Arabian into notice. The Compton Barb was sire of Coquette and others. Hulton's Bay Barb was sire of Blacklegs. The Byerly Turk was Capt. Byerly's charger in Ireland during King William's wars in 1089. It is from this horse that the Herod blood originated. Byerly Turk got Jigg, sire of Partner, who got Tartar, sire of Herod, who got Highflyei', sire of Sir Petei' (Teazle). Sir Peter got Haphazard, Stam- ford, Walton, sire of Phantom and Partisan, Williamson's Ditto and Sir Oliver. Herod got Fortitude, Woodpecker, the sire of Buzzard, who sired Selim, the sire of Sultan, that sired Glencoe, Bay Middletou, etc. Herod got Florizel, sire of Diomed, who got Young Giantess and Sir Archy, sire of Tlmoleon, who got Boston, sire of Lexington, Lecompt, etc. Godolphin Arabian got Cade, sire of Matchem, who got Conductor, sire of Iraperator and Trumpator. Trumpator got Sorcerer, the sire of Comus, and Smolensko. The Darley Arabian got Bartlet's Childers, sire of Squirt, who got Marske, sire of Eclipse, who got King Fergus, Mercury, Dun- ganuon, Meteor, Saltram and Pot-8-os. Mercury got Gohanha, King Fergus got Benningbrough, the sire of Orville, who gotEmilius, the sire of Priam and Plenipoten- tiary, and Master Henry; Muley, the sire of Margrave, Leviathan and others; Hamble- tonian, the sire of Whitelock, who got Blacklock, sireof Brutandorf,Voltaire,etc. ; Sal- tram got Whiskey, the sire of Eleanor and Cressida, the dam of Priam ; Pot-8-os got Waxy, the sire of Web, Whisker, the sire of Economist, who got Echidna and Harkaway, the sire of King Tom. Whalebone, the sire of Camel, who g 't Touchstone, the sire of Orlando and Newminster, the sire of The Hermit; Whalebone also got Sir Hercules, the sire of Irish Birdcatcher, the sireof The Baron, who got Stockwell, Rataplan etc., and Faugh-a-Ballagh the sire of Leamington. An examination of the Stud Book and Racing Calender will show that nearly the entire family of great race-horses both in England and America, dates back to the sources mentioned, and that it is extreme folly in our day to expect to improve the present magnificent race-horse by an infusion of the blood of the modern Arabian. We commenced upon the Arab Barb and Turk with a height not exceeding 15 hands, and have, by judicious crossing, generous diet, discreet and careful handling built up the most magnificent specimens of the equine race. INTKODUCTIOKT. ranging up to 17 hands in height, with bone, muscle, length, action and all the other grand qualities in proportion. In the early days of breeding, from necessity, very many of the best horses were very much inbred, and even incestuously so, and the question of mbreeding is one which commends itself strongiy to mature consideration and examination. According to the maxim that "like produces like," we ought to follow form, blood, speed and other good qualities, and if these good qualities can be maintained and improved by inbreeding, then it must be desirable to a certain extent. Some of the best English and American horses were very much inbred, and the consanguinity of blood did not work deterioration. I am not an advocate of incestuous breeding, either in the human race or the brute creation, but there is no doubt that manly beauty, graceful form and intellectual vigor have resulted from preservation of those high qualities in the human race where not carried too far, and we can see no reason why the inbreeding of the t) uest best bred and best shaped racers can work an injury to the equine race. Still we tbink an out cross of pure blood with the essential qualities of a good race-horse and then back to the superior blood and conformation likely to produce the best results. We will give a few examples of inbred modern horses, in England and the same in America, and in doing so will select those of high character which distinguished themselves on the turf, and in the stud, for instance. The Baron, not only a good race-horse, but sire of Stock- well and Rataplan was by Birdcatcher, by Sir Hercules, by "Whalebone, by Waxy, by Pot-8-ps, by Eclipse. The Baron's dam. Echidna, by Economist, by Whisker, own brother to Whalebone, by Waxy, by Pot-8-os, by Eclipse, Echidna's dam, Miss Pratt by Blacklock, by Whitelock, by Hambletonian, by King Fergus, by Eclipse. Touchstone, a fine race-horse, and one of the best stallions that ever lived, was by Camel, by Whalebone, by Waxy, by Pot 8-os, by Eclipse, his dam, Banter by Master Henry, by Orville, by Beningbrough, by King Fergus, by Eclipse ; 2d dam, Boadicea by Alexander, by Eclipse. The great Stockwell was much inbred on his dam's side, Pocahontas by Glencoe, dam Marpessa, by Muley, by Orville, by Beningbrough, by King Fergus, by Eclipse. Muley's dam, Eleanor by Whiskey, by Saltram, by Eclipse. Pocahontas' gi-andam was Clare by Marmion, by Whiskey, by Saltram, by Eclipse ; Clare's dam, Harpalice by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse. Queen Mary, the dam of Blink Bonny, Bonnie Scotland, &c., was much inbred. Gladiator, her sire, was by Partisan, by Walton, by Sir Peter, by Highflyer, by Herod ; her dam by Plenipoten- tiary, by Emilius, by Orville, by Beningbrough, by King Fergus, by Eclipse ; her grandam, Myrrha by Whalebone, by Waxy, by Pot-8-os, by Eclipse ; her great grandam. Gilt by Y. Gohanna, by Gohanna, by Mercury, by Eclipse, out of a daughter of Sir Peter, by Highflyer, by Herod. Partisan was out of Parasol, by Pot-8-os, by Eclipse. Pocahontas' best son, Stockwell, was by an inbred horse, and Blink Bonny, Queen Mary's best daughter, was by a horse Melbourne inbred to Herod and Eclipse, so if the preservation of good blood through inbreeding in these striking cases has been a success, is it not reasonable to suppose that the same results must follow inbreeding to good blood and true shape with other desirable qualities in this country? Boston was inbred to Diomed, as also his best son, Lexington. Wanderer and Uncas are both much inbred on the dam's side, being out of a grandaughter of Glencoe, and tracing to an own sister of the Old Hero. Glenmore, one of the best racehorses recently on the turf, and whose performances are of the best at all distances, is very much inbred; his dam, Lotta, is by Hunter's Glencoe, son of Imp. Glencoe and INTRODUCTION. jj the blue filly Fiatt by Imp. Hedgeford, she out of Lady Thompkins by American Eclipse. Glenmore's grandam Sally Lewis is by Imp. Glencoe her dnm Motto by Imp. Barefoot out of Lady Thompkins by Am. Eclipse. Barefoot was by Tramp and Glen- coe's dam by Tramp, so that he is, strictly speaking, incestuously bred; yet he was a first class race-horse. Norfolk, a superior race-horse, is inbred to Sir Archy and Dio- med. Falsetto is inbred to Lexington; the dam of his sire is by Lexington, and his grandam by Lexington, and he has nine crosses of Diomed. Imp. Eclipse was much inbred; his dam Gaze was by Bay Middleton son of Sultan and Cobweb by Phantom son of Walton, Flycatcher, his grandam, was by Godolphin son of Partisan by Walton, and his great grandam was an own sister to Cobweb by Phantom. Then if the Lex- ington, Leamington and Glencoe blood is to be preserved to the country it can only be done by a judicious course of inbreeding, and so uniting the choice of both as to com- bine and render permament the qualities possessed by each. Some regard inbreed- ing as an active cause of degenerating, as unnatural and calculated to develop heredi- tary diseases. These evils can only spring from abuse of the system. If proper care is taken to exclude the weak and those having hereditary tendencies to disease, from participation in reproduction it may be the means of preserving tliose estimable quali- ties so much desired in the equine race, and transmitting them unimpaired to succeed- ing generations. The greatest success has been achieved by breeding from the nearest affinities of blood, and one should not hesitate to breed a half-brother or sister to- gether where they possess many points of superiority. In the selection of a stallion we want first pure blood, size, substance and conformation with symmetry, not a tall narrow-chested horse, but one inclined to be thick-set; all coarseness should be avoided especially in the head, neck, shoulders, ankles and hocks ; the eye should be large, clear and bright, with no coarse hair about it, the absence of which is indicative of high breeding in all animals; the jaw bones not too massive or heavy, tapering gradually to the nose, free from beefiness; good space between the jawbones for the windpipe; a clear, full steady eye denotes good temper and enduring qualities, whilst the one showing too much white is generally found in Highty. speedy, non-slaying horses. The neck of moderate length, deep and not too thick at the crest or curve, nostrils large, full and roomy. The chest moderately wide, the shoulder blade oblique and inclined backward with sufficient muscle to cover it, with arms long and muscular, cannon bones short and flat, and the pasterns moderately long not upright, knee broad and flat and rather inclined to arch or bend over than backward or calf-kneed, which causes an extra tension on the back tendons; chest deep extending down between the elbows which should be straight, inclining neither in nor out, and toes pointed straight forwnrd. body and barrel round and not too long, muscular arched loins, with good length from point of the hip to haunch bone, a slight drooping towards the root of the tail, good length from hip to point of stifle and thence to the hock, which should be broad, finely cut and free from beefiness; the can- non bones flat, tendons detached and well defined, feet strong and hoof not too large or too small, back ribs long, round, and slightly detached from the hip joint. There should be sufficient general length not to be determined by the length of the back, but the ground the horse coverswhenstandinginanatural position. Good blood is essen- tial and necessary, but good form is superiority. In the selection of brood mares, form is as much a desideratum as in the stallion. First select from the most fashionable blood from running families on both sides with conformation, constitution, good temper, and XU ESTTRODUCTION. speed ; some prefer large mares, others of medium height. Large mares are not pre- ferable because they are large, but if well and truly shaped, from running blood, there is no objection to size ; as a rule, the deep-chested, large-bodied, short-legged mares with large pelvis, with wide hips and good length, from 15 to lo| hands high, have proved the best and most successful brood mares. The mare, above all things, should be good-tempered and free from all liereditary defec's and disease. It does not follow that a mare which may be blemished from some unforseen cause, may not be as good a brood mare as one entirely sound. Mares in good health will breed until twenty-tive or thirty years old, but they require attention, air and exercise, with proper shelter from storms and bad weather, with sufficient food to keep them always in good strong condition— not beefy fat, as nothing is more fatal to fruitfulness than obesity. Unless kept in good strong condition, the foals are apt to bi weak and weedy at birth ; the time to make a race-horse is when the foal is in embryo ; in the vernacular to make a race-horse 3'ou must do so before he is born. Stallions, to do themselves justice, must have plenty of exercise in the open iiir ; if they cannot be trusted in an open paddock they should be ridden three or four hours each day. Idleness results in indigestion, loss of vigor, and flatulence, which often prove fatal. The colts, from the day they are foalrd should be fed, if the dam does not afford sufficient milk to insure speedy and healthy growth, and broken at weaning time, which should be the last of September or first of October. It is a capital plan to feed the colts in pens for a month or six week* before weaning them, and we are decidedly of the opinion that foals which come the last of March or first of April have full as much advantage as those foaled earlier before the grasses necessary to afford an ample supply of milk from the dam arrive at perfection. Those who believe in having early foals should always sow down in the early fall a patch of good rye for the use of the mares and foals. Stallions. mares, and colts all require plenty of fresh air and exercise ; air and light is life — darkness, death. Horses, and particularly colls, from their natural activity, require more exercise than any other animals, and when properly given, is productive of th^ most salutary effects. It is the more necessary to colts highly fed than to those stinted or fed moderately. It enables you to preserve them in a perfect state of health. The food is converted into wholesome nourishment, the circulation of the blood promoted, and all the secretions and discharges facilitated. It invigorates the whole system, gives additional flow to the spirits, adds firmness and strength to the muscles, increases the firmness, texture and growth of the bone, promotes insensible perspiration, assists digestion and prevents flatulence and prepares the system for fresh supplies of aliment. It enables the animal to endure fatigue. In fact without constant and habitual exercise no animal can enjoy perfect health. High feeding Avithout proper exercise produces many evils, such as indigestion, flatulency, cos- tiveness ; the circulation becomes languid, incurable diseases follow, and frequently death terminates the scene. The stallions and mares thus treated, whose blood is pure and uncontaminatcd, and whose conformation, strength, activity and vigor are conspicuous in every movement, must impart to their offspring not only sound con- stitutions, but speed, native fire and energy, which are necessary to support them un- der the severest exercise of their powers. With the variety of soil, perennial grasses, and favorable climate, the Americans should excel all nations in producing the most perfect and the grandest of the equine race.

He will be allowed to serve mares at $100 each and ^5 to the groom. A^yj^lication to Major J. R. JSubbard, Chestnut Hill, f Philadelphia, Pa. AxARM, by imp. Eclipse, was bred by Mr. John Hunter, of the Annieswood Stud, "Westchester Co., N. Y., foaled 1869, dam, imported Maud, the dam of Maudina, Mag- net, Telegram, etc., by imp. Australian out of Countess of Albermarle, by Lanercost. Maudina is the dam of Galway, Piccolo, Cloverbrook, Oden, etc. Orlando, the sire of imp. Eclipse, won the Derby in 1844. Stockwell, tlie sire of Maud, his dam, won the 2,000 guineas and St. Leger in 1802. Alarm made his debut as a two-year old at Saratoga, Aug. 10, 1871, in a match of $5,000 a side against Inverary, by imp. Leamington, one mile, which he won in 1:47|, carrying 100 lbs. Aug. 17, ran ihird to Sue Ryder and Joe Daniels in the Kentucky Stakes, one mile, in 1:47^, beating St. Patrick, Experience Oaks, Hubbard and three others. Jerome Park, Oct. 7, ran second to Joe Daniels in Nursery Slakes, one mile, in 1:53, track heavy, beating Woodbine, Inversnaid, Victoria and three others. Oct. 10th, was beaten in the Desert Stakes, one mile, in 1 :48, by InA^erary. Whenthree years old ran 5 races, and won them all. Jerome Park, June 1, won club purse, three quar- ters of a mile, in 1:18, beating Midday, Frogtown, Tubman, Platina aud four others. June 6, won club purse, \\ miles, in 2:17i, beating Rounder, Lord Byron and live others. June 18, won club purse, one mile, in 1 :46, beating Alroy, Quiutard and four others, Saratoga, July 15, won club purse, three-quarters of a mile, in 1 :16, beating Platina, Piedmont, Elsie, Kingfisher and four others. July 17, won club purse, one mile, in 1:43|, beating Fadladeen and Kingfisher, the fastest mile run to that date. This closed his turf career, winning in money $12,500. Alarm made his first season at the Walnut Hill Stud Farm, the property of James A. Grinstead, Fayette County, Ky. After the appearance of Himyar, he was purchased by A. Welch, of the Chest- nut Hill Stud, Pennsylvania, and made the season of 1878 at the Dixiana Stud, Major B. G. Thomas', Fayette County, Ky. He is now at the head of the Erdenheim Stud, owned by Commodore N. W. Kittson, Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania.

AlgekesE, by Abd-el-Kader, son of imp. Australian, was bred by Major Thos. W. Doswell, Bullfield Stud, Hanover Junction, Va. ; foaled 1873, dam Nina, the dam of Planet, Exchequer, Ninette, Ecliptic, «fec., by Old Boston. Algerine did not run as a two-year old ; he made his bow to the public in the Preak- ness Stakes at Baltimore in 1876, 1| miles, and was third to Shirley and Rap- pahonnock in 2:44|. At Jerome Park he won the Belmont Stakes, 1^ miles in 2:40^, beating Fiddlesticks, the winner of the Withers Stakes, Barricade, brother to Bassett (Charley Howard) and Red Coat, each carrying 110 lbs. He was unplaced in the Dixie Stakes, 2 miles, at Baltimore ; won by Vigil in 3 -.41^, track, muddy. As a four-year old he started five times, ran second to Parole in the Maturity Stakes at Jerome Park, 3 miles, in 5:39; second to St. James, 2 miles, in 3:49i ; was unplaced in the AH- Aged Sweepstake, 1^ miles, won by Tom Ochiltree in 2:43.

Abd-el-Kader, his sire, although badly hipped, was a fine race-horse at all distances ; he won a dash of 4 miles at Saratoga in 1869, in 7 :31f , a very creditable performance. Nina, the dam of Algerine, was one of the best race-mares of her day ; she was a winner at all distances, from one to four mile heats, in good time, and produced Planet, one of the best horses in the countrj-, at all distances, and for his chances a successful sire. Algerine is a blood bay, 15f hands, with black points, and no white about him. He is strongly inbred to Sir Archy, and on the sire's side is a grandson of the great West Australian, winner of the tripple events, 2,000 guineas, Derby and St. Leger, in 1853. Boston, the sire of his dam, was the best horse of any day. Algerine has no colts yet upon the turf, but from good mares should get winners and stayers ; he traces on both sides of sire and dam many times, to Herod and Eclipse, through the famous Waxy and Dick Andrews, with the Archy and Diomed blood in both sides, through Diomed's best sons. n^ The Horse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Uook.

Athlete will stand the season of 1883 at Kinlock Stud farm near Golum- hia, Boone County, Mo., at $50 the season ; dams of Winners free. Application to he m.ade to J. LucasTumer, Columbia, Mo, Imported by D. D. Withers, Esq. Athlete, by Gladiateur, bred by Mr. W. Blenkiron, foaled 1872, dam Rose of Kent dam of Maiden's Blush, Hopbine Spartacus, Kentish Rose., etc, by Kingston out of Eng- land's Beauty by Birdcatcher. Athlete started in three races at two years old, but was unplaced in all. At three years old ran four times, won club purse at Jerome Park one mile for maiden three year olds, in 1 :51; track heavy. He ran third to Leander in a handicap for all ages three-quarters of a mile in 1 -211 and was unplaced in the other two races. Gladiateur his sire was the sensational horse of his year and accomplished what no other horse ever did — he won the two thousand guineas, Derby and St. Leger, in England, and the Grand Prix de Paris in France in 1865, and the Ascot Gold Cup in 18G6. Kingston, the sire of his dam, was one of the best and most famous race-horses of his day and was truly bred to stay through his Venison and Defence blood. He was sire of Queen Bertha, winner of the Oaks, and Caractacus, winner of the Derby; Rose of Kent, the dam of Athlete, is own sister to Silverhair the dam of Garterly Bell and Silvio ; the latter won both the Derby and St. Leger in 1877. Athlete is very much inbred to Whalebone through his most popular and successful sons, such as Defence, Moses, Merman, Camel and the great Sir Hercules, and is fortified by the blood of Herod and Eclipse. Athlete is a dark chesnut with a small white stripe down his face from the forehead to the nose and is full 15J hands high. We can scarcely see how he can fail in the stud; no descendant of Old Prunella through pure strains of blood has yet failed to breed winners as evidenced by the success of Whalebone, Whisker, Web, Glencoe and others. Athlete traces six times to old Prunella, three times on side of sire and the same on his dam's side, to the blood of Herod and Eclipse from popular and successful racing sources.

HVill he used as private stallion in the FemcUff Stud^ the property of Wil- liam AstoTf Esq., near Rhineheck, Dutchess Co., JV. Y. Baden-Baden, by imp. Australian, son of West Australian, bred by A. J. Alexan- der Woodburn Stud, Kentucky, foaled 1874, dam Lavender, the dam of Helmbold, Bucliu Barricade, &c. , by Wagner, son of Sir Charles, out of Alice Carneal, dam of Lexington, Waxy, Rescue, &c., by Imp Sarpedon, son of Emilius. Imp Australian, the sire of Baden Baden, can be found in this book. West Australian, his sire, was a winner of the double events in England, Derby and St. Leger. Wagner, the sire of Lavender, was the race horse of his day, and defeated the Kentucky crack, Grey Eagle, in the noted four-mile heat races run at Louisville, Kentucky, in 1839, which were the fastest to that day. Alice Carneal, his grandam, was the dam of Lexington the incomparable race horse and emperor of stallions. Baden Baden was a first-class race horse, at two years old, started five times. At Louisville, Kentucky, was second to McWhirter in the Belle Meade Stakes (three-quarters of a mile) in 117, with Lisbon and three others behind him. Ran second to Belle of the Meade in the Sanf ord Stake (one mile) in 144J (very fast), Sallie McCrea, McWhirter, Glentina, and three others behind him. Was second to Belle of the Meade in Sweepstake (one mile) in 144^, beating McWhirter, Springbranch, and Eva Shirley. At Nashville won the Young America Stakes No. 2 (one mile) in 146f , beating King William and three others. At three years old won the Kentucky Derby (one and a half miles) in 238, beating Leonard, King William, McWhirter, Vera Cruz, Dan K and five others. Was un- placed in the Clark Stakes (two miles), won by McWhirter in 330^.

Saratoga won the Travers Stake (one and threequarters miles) in 312J, track heavy, beating Bridemante, St. James, Cleverbrook and four others. Was unplaced in Kenner Stakes (two miles), won by Basil in 338^. Baden-Baden was sent away full a hun- dred yards behind, yet at the end of a mile and five furlongs he was in front, and had the race won, when he broke his ankle and was ruined for racing purposes. On his sire's side he has the Melbourne, Touchstone, Emilius and Whisker blood, and on the dam's side is much inbred to Sir Archy and Diomed, and goes back to Alice Carneal, the great fountain head of race horses and successful sires. Baden-baden is a dark chestnut, 16^ hands high, with a star in his forehead, the only white about him. He has elegant shoulders, and is a finely-shaped horse all over. His oldest colts, now •coming two years old, are promising. The Jlorse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 11 PEDIGREE OF BADEN-BADEN. ?5 5 o Comus.* Clinkerina. Cervantes. Daughter of. Camel. Banter.

Bertram ran only one race at two j^ears old ; was unplaced in the Champagne stakes at Jerome Park, three-quar- ters of a mile, won by Virginius in 1:19. At three years old started four times; was unplaced in the Wither's stake, one mile, won by his stable companion, Fiddlesticks, in 1 :4G*. Some place, won Club purse, one mile and a furlong, for maiden three-year-olds, in 2:01, beating Woodland, Leaming'on II., Vigil and others.

He is full of substance and power, and greatly resembles his sire. He is strongly inbred to Herod and Eclipse through the best sources with the Archy and Diomed blood through Lexington, he was speedy, could stay and pack ■weight. He should prove a success upon the matrons at Belle Meade. BRIGADIER (Imp.) Brigadier will he located the season of 1883 at the stables of Col. A. R. Wynn, Castalian, Springs, Tenn., and will serve inares at $25 the season. Brigadier, by Monarque, bred in France, foaled 18C9, imported by Mr. J. A. Smith, dam Sweet Lucy, by Sweetmeat. Brigadier ran but once in public in a plate at New- market Second October Meeting won by Nudel, he was unplaced. His sire, Monarque, was a fine race-horse, won the Goodwood Cup in 1857, and sired Gladiateur, who not only won the 2,000 guineas, Derby and St. Leger in 1865, but the Grand Prix de Paris same year, and he is the only horse which ever accomplished the feat. Gladiateur also won the Ascot Gold Cup in 1866, and many other important events. Sweetmeat, the sire of his dam. Sweet Lucy, was sire of Macaroni, winner of the 2,000 guineas and Derby in 1863, and of Mincepie winner of the Oaks in 1856, and Mincemeat winner of the Oaks in 1854. Macheath, the crack two year old, of England, for this year 1883, is by Macaroni. The pedigree is lull of stout and speedy crosses ; the horse served no thorough-bred mares until 1880, and his colts are pronounced very promising. His blood is one of the links through which the Sweetmeat and Whalebone blood can be perpetuated in this country, he is strongly inbred to Waxy, through both Whisker and Whalebone, and to Eclipse through these two stout crosses and through Orville, and Blacklock. Beningbrough, the sire of Orville, won the St. Leger in 1794, and Ham- bletonian, the grandsire of Blacklock, won it in 1795, both were grandsons of the great Eclipse, both being by King Fergus, the famous son of that horse, and he traces through his dam to Proserpine, an own sister of Eclipse. Brigadier is a brown 16^ hands, with little white on one heel behind, is a fine tempered, well shaped horse. The Horse-Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 27 PEDIGREE OF BRIGADIER. Waxy. Penelope. Rubens.

Sovereign, a superior race-mare and winner of the fastest mile run to that date, 1861 — 1 :44J, and since a dam of winners, Merrill and Marion, both by Lexington. Merrill won the Jersey Derby, at Paterson, in 1866, and the Travers Stake, at Sara- toga, the same year. Marion was also a fine race-horse. She produced in succeeding years Grecian Bend, Hollywood, Miranda, and Neecy Hale, all by Lexington. Both Hollywood and Neecy Hale were superior race-mares. Hollywood won both the three-quarter and mile stakes at Lexington, Pall of 1870, then two years old, in 1 :18J- and 1 :45|. She later won at two mile heats in 3:38|, 3:40 J. Neecy Hale, three years old, won the sweepstakes, If miles, at Lexington, in 3:07f, beating Creedmoor and others. Duke of Magenta started seven times as a two-year old, lost three, won three and ran a dead heat for the seventh one, carrying 115 lbs. to Spartan's 110. In the three races he lost, he was barely beaten a scant head. He won half a mile in :49|, ran dead heat three-quarters, in 1 :16f , and won the same distance in 1 -111. The Duke opened his three-year old campaign at Baltimore, May 27, by winning the Preakness Stakes, li miles, in 2:4l|, beating Bayard and Albert. His second ap- pearance was in the Withers Stakes, one mile, at Jerome Park, and, notwithstanding the track was very heavy and muddy, he won with 118 lbs. up, in 1:48. Eight days after he won the Belmont Stakes, 1| miles, in 2:43^. He next appeared at Long Branch, June 29, and, being out of condition, was beaten for the Jersey Derby, \^ miles, by both Spartan and Danicheff. Traveling to Saratoga on July 20, he won the Travers Stake, If miles, in 3 :08, beat- ing Spartan, Bramble and others. This race with the weight, 118 lbs., was about the best race of the year at the distance. On the 8d of August, penalized 5 lbs. 123 lbs. up, he won the Sequel Stakes, If miles, in 3 .15, track heavy. On the 13th of the same month he won the Kenner Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:41 1. He finished his season at Sara- toga by winning in hollow style the Harding Stakes, 1| miles, in 2:50J. He opened the Fall campaign at Jerome Park by winning the Jerome Stakes, If miles, iu 3:11^. A few days after he captured the Annual Stakes, two miles, in 3:43, running the first mile in 1 :45. Going to Baltimore, he easily won the Dixie Stakes, 110 lbs. up, in 3;41. Three days after he closed his three-year old campaign and turf career by winning the Breckenridge Stakes, 2 miles, with 115 lbs., in 3:43, the first mile being run in 1:46 J. His gross winnings during the ^ear amounted to $36,550. Thus starting in twelve races, winning eleven, and defeating all the best colts of the year, and striking his colors only once during the season, being then notoriously out of condition. Duke of Magenta is a bay, 16i hands, with star and long narrow white stripe down the face over his nose, both hind legs white half way to his hocks, and two black spots on coronet of each hind foot ; he measures 75 inches around the girth. He is much like his famous sire Lexington, but much larger model. His oldest colts are now two years old and resemble the sire very much, and are very promising. _ Few such race- horses as the Duke ever face the starter in America. He has Diomed blood on both sides. The Horse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 33 PEDIGREE OF DUKE OF MAGENTA. 1 . 1 f*> 1.= -^ .

Duke of Montrose, by Waverley, son of imp. Australian, bred by Jas A. Grinstead, Walnut Hill Stud, near Lexington, Ky., dam Kelpie — the dam of Janet, four miles in 7:25 — by imp Bonnie Scotland, out of sister to Ruric dam of Grinstead by imp. Sovereign, son of Emilius,the winner of the Derby in 1823, and sire of the two famous Derby winners, Priam and Plenipotentiary, Oxygen winner of the Oaks, and Mango winner of the St. Leger. Sovereign's dam, Fleur-de-Lis by Bourbon, was one of the best mares of her day. In addition to other races she won the Goodwood Cup in 1829' and '30. Duke of Montrose made his debut as a three-year old, and started in five races and won one race at Gravesend, a dash of 1^ miles in 2:12; at Jerome Park was second in the Lorillard Stakes for three-year-olds, one mile and three fur- longs, won by Grenada, no time taken. At Gravesend was second in th» Coney Island Handicap, one mile and three furlongs, won by Luke Blackburn in 2:244; Monmouth Park, was second in the Ocean Stakes, one mile and a furlong, won by Luke Blackburn in 2:03^; was second in a Sweepstakes, IJ miles, won by Luke Blackburn in 2:11^ Four years old, started in thirteen races of wliich he won five; Saratoga" won a dash in one mile in 1 .42^, beating Knight Templar and eight others; Monmouth Park, won a dash of one mile in 1 :45|, beating Jack of Hearts and two others ; won a selling race, one mile, in 1:44; Jerome Park, won dash of three-quarters of a mile in 1:19J, beating Clarendon, Valparaiso and nine others; won a dash of one mile in 1:50^, beat- ing Marathon and others. In this race, to a false start the horses ran the distance, and Montrose finished first in 1 :45f . At Saratoga, was second in a dash of one mile, won by Fireman in 1:44 ; Monmouth Park, was second in a dash of one mile won by Sir Hugh in l:44f ; was second in a Selling Bace, one mile, won by Viola in 1:44^ ; Sara- toga was third in a dash of one mile and a furlong, welter weights, won by Boule- vard in 1 -Ml : Jerome Park was third in a dash of one mile, won by Marathon in 1 :45|. Was unplaced in his other races. It will be observed he ran good seconds to such horses as Grenada and the great Luke Blackburn. This closes his racing career, having given away in his fore legs. Duke of Monti'ose is a blood bay, full 16 hands high with black points; is a large, fine, well developed horse, and possessed a wonderful turn of speed. He is inbred to Waxy through his famous sons. Whalebone and Whisker, and traces through the dams of Vandal and Ruric to the famous old Lady Grey, the grandam of Lexington, from whom so many successful sires and bro^d mares liave descended.

The family from whicli lie descends is a good racing one. llis dam, Lida, and gran- dam, Lize, were not trained. Eclipse, the sire of his grandam, was the race-horse of his day ; he beat all the best horses of his time, and won the great sectional match, the North against the South, run over the Union Course, L. I., May 27, 1823, for $20,000 a side, Eclipse beating Henry, who won the first heat, in7:37i, 7:49, 8:24. Gabrielle, his great grandam, was by the renowned Sir Archy ; was a fine race-mare, and dam of tiie noted Geo. Martin, which beat Reel and Hannah Harris (four-mile heats) in 7;33, 7:43. Enquirer has not had a fair chance in the stud ; he was virtually retired for several years, there being five living fonls reported by him in 1878, four in 1879, and three in 1880. Yet lie has always held a high position as a winning sire. Amongst the best of his get, all winners, are Leauder (Searcher), mile in l:41f ; McWhirter, 2 miles, 3:30^ ; the fastest race was run by a three-year old, Lizzie Whipps(two mile heats), in 3 :36i, 3:39 ; Harkaway (mile heats) in 1:43, 1:42^ (two mile heats), in 3:39, 3:35^- ; Solicitor, two miles in 3:34i ; Bill Bruce, three-quarters of mile in l:15i, mile heats 1 :43J, 1:44, 2 miles in 3:36* ; McHenry, Blue Eyes, 2i miles in 1 :55J, and 21- miles in 3:58f ; Goodnight, seven-eighth of mile in 1 :28|, mile 1:42*, and 1^ miles, 120 lbs., in 1 :55* ; Getaway, li miles in 2:07f, fastest on record 2-mile heats in 3:36^, 3:35* : Falsetto, U miles in 2:08|, 2 miles in 3:3oi with 118 lbs. : Pinafore, one mile live hundred yards in 2:11.

Turner, Carrie M, Bailey (now Revenge), Response, Bosque Belle, Gen. Jackson, Rambeau, Mascolte. He had but four or five representatives on the turf in 1882, and they won a fair share of the races in about the fastest time. Enquirer is a dark bay with an irregular-shaped stav in his forehead and a narrow streak of grey hair running down his face and left hind leg, white above the pastern and three white splotches in left flank.

ENQUIRER— Continued. the injury to his ankle, which caused his retirement from the turf. Enquirer traces through several crosses of Sir Archy to the great imp. Diomed, winner of the first English Derby, and a horse in which the best stock of America can be traced through uncoutaminated sources. There is no better line through which tO' perpetuate and retain this blood, with the Whalebone and Pantaloon blood in- herited through his sire. He is IGi hands high gh-th 78 in., length of shoulder 29f in., circumference of arm 22 in., around the leg below the knee 9 in., from point of shoulder to tuin of the buttocks 69 in., from point of hip to point of hock 3Si in., around the gaskins 18 in., and weighs 1,200 lbs. EOLUS, ^WINNER OF THE CITY HOTEL STAKES AT BALTIMORE, AND OTHER GOOD RACES,) Will stand the season of 1883 at the EllersUe Stud near Charlottsmlle^ Albermarle County, Va., at $100 the season. Applicatio7i to H. J. Hancock, proprietor, Overton, P. O., Va. Yearlings xoill he sold an- nually. EoLus, by imp. Leamington, son of Faugh-a Ballagh, bred by Major Thomas W. Doswell, Bullfield Stud, Hanover Junction, Va., foaled 1868, dam Fanny Washing- ton, dam of Rappahannock, etc., by Revenue, sou of imp. Trustee, out of Sarah Wash- ington the dam of Oratrix. Inspector, etc., by Garrison's Zinganee, son of Sir Archy. Leamington, his sire, can be found in this book. Fanny Washington, his dam, was one of the best mares of her day ; was winner at all distances, 2 mile heats in 3:47f, 3:40i, 8 mile heats in 5:43, 5:44i, defeating Tar River, and in 5:43i, 5:33f, she won 4 mile heats in 7:37, 8:02, defeating La Variete, Endorser and others, and beat the best ones on all the tracks ; her full sister. Sue Wa-hington, was also noted as win- ner at all distances. Revenue, her sire, won at all distances, and was the sire of the great Planet, Exchequer and other good race-horses. Sarah Washington, his gran- dam, was one of the best mares of her day, winner at all distances ; 3 mile heats in 5:42, 5:39i, and beut the famous Lady Clifden 4 mile heats. She produced In- spector, one of the best race-horses of his day, and Oratrix that beat the noted Bostona. Eolus did not start as a two-year old, but won three out of the six races in which he started as a thiee-5'ear old, a club purse, 2 miles, at Saratoga, in 3:38| ; a purse, If miles, in 3:14^, beating such horses as Tubman, Frogtown and others, and the City Hotel Stakes at Baltimore, \\ miles, in the mud, in 2:55 He did not start as a four- year-old, and only won three races at five years old ; \\ miles at Baltimore, in 2:43| ; If miles at Saratoga, in 3:15, and one of 1^ miles in 2:02*. He was clo^e up in several races in first-class company. When six years old he ran three races, won two, one of 2i miles at Baltimore, in 4:39, and one of two mile heats, in 3:40, 3:39J, 3:36f, Mart Jordan winning the second heat. This third heat is the fastest and best third heat ever run, and stamped him as a race-horse of the first water, possessing both speed and stamina. He had but one representative on the turf in 1881, Eole, and although much out of condition during the year, he ran creditably in all his ra'^es and won some of great merit, notably his If miles in 3:07^, one mile and five furlongs in 2:49f, one mile and a fuilnng, with 116 lbs., in 1.58f, one mileand three furlongs in 2:24, \\ miles in 2: Hi, \\ miles in 2:89^. In 1882, Eole, although saddled with the top weights, won the great Metropolitan Stakes at Jerome Park, \h miles, in 2 '41, defeating General Monroe, Monitor, Parole, etc., and the Jockey Club Handicap, 2 miles, in 3:381, car- rying 128 lbs. to Monitor's 122, he be'ng second. In the Coney Island Cup he forced Hindoo to run the fir.st 2 miles in 3:29f, and the 2^ miles- in 3: 58, the fastest race at ihe di.'tance during the year. Eole Avon the Monmouth Cup, 2J miles, in 4:07f, beat- ing Girofle and Monitor. He won theC hampion Stakes, the Morrissey Stakes at Sara toga, and the Autumn Cup at Coney Island, 3 miles, in 5:26^, in which he defeated Lida Stanhope, Thora, Glenmore and four other.s. In this race he carried 120 lbs, and conceded all lumps of weiglit. When beaten ho was out of condition or over loaded by the handicappers. Eolist is the only other colt by him which has been trained. Eolus is a dark bay horse, with star in his forehead and two white hind heels, full 15f hands, and weighs 1,100 lbs. He is a large, fine horse, of great substance and power, and in addition 10 his Waxy blood tlirough Whalebone and Whisker, he has four dis- tinct crosses of Sir Archy on his dam's side, and traces to Eclipse and Herod through his collateral branches. The stock all possess .symmetry, constiution and staying powers. He should command the patronage of the public. The Horse- Breeders^ Guide and Hand Booh. 41 PEDIGREE OF EOLUS. be !3 Waxy. Peuelope.

FALSETTO, (WINNER OF THE PHOENIX HOTEL STAKE AT LEXINGTON, CLARK STAKE AT LOUISVILLE, TRAVERS AND KENNER STAKES AT SARA- TOGA, N. Y., ALL IN 1879). Will stand the season of 1883 at the Woodbiirn Stud, A. J. Alexander proprietor, near Spring Station, Ky., at $50 tJie season. Application to L. Brodhead, Spring Station. Annual sales of yearlings in May. Falsetto, by Enquirer, son of imp. Leamington, bred by the late Col. J. W. Hunt Reynolds, Fleetwood Stud, Ky., foaled 1876, dam Farfaletta, dam of Felicia, Fortuna, «tc., by imp. Australian, out ot Elkhorna, dam of Elkhorn Arcturus, etc., by Lexing- ton. Leamington, Enquirer, Australian and Lexington, all noted horses covering the "first four crosses of the blood of Falsetto, are to be found in this boolt. His dam, Far- faletta, has never produced any thing but good ones. Felicia and Fortuna were both ^ood race mares and creditable performers. Falsetto made his maiden effort at Lex- ington, Ky., May 10, first day of the Spring meeting, in Phoenix Hotel Stakes, \\ miles. Falsetto, never having smarted before, vi^as ignored in the betting. Trinidad, Ada Glenn and Lilly R., were the three favorites. Ten horses started, Falsetto won, defeating Ada Glenn by a neck, Scully a good third, Trinidad, Lily R., Hamadan, Wissahickon, Bucktie, Bailey and Black Hills unplac-^d ; time, 3:08f. Falsetto's second appearance was at Louisville, Ky. , May 20, in the Kentucky Derby, \\ miles ; he ran second to Lord Murphy, suffering his first and only defeat. Strathraore, Trinidad, Ada Glenn, One Dime, Gen. Pike, Bucktie and Wissahickon also started ; time of race, 2:37. Same place, May 27, won the Clark Stakes, 2 miles, defeating. Bucktie, Trinidad, Mary Ann, Gen. Pike, Borak and Wissahickon ; time, 3:40J. Fal- setto, with his stable companions, was sent to Saratoga at the conclusion of the Louis- ville meeting, and had nearly two months in which to rest and prepare for their en- gagements at that point. Saratoga, .luly 19, he met the hitherto invincible Spend- thrift, also Harold, Jericho and Dan Sparling, in the Travers Stakes, If miles. The history of the race is too well known to require repetition here. Falsetto won ; Si)endthrift was second, Harold third; time, 8:09^, a very fast race for the track. VVhile not detracting in the least from Falsetto's magnificent performance, it is safe to say that Spendthrift was not liimself, as his wonderful race for the Lorillard Stakes, at Jerome Park, June 10. amply proved. Saratoga, Aug. 12, won the Kenner Stakes, 2 miles, defeating Spendthrift, .lericho. Monitor and Harold ; time, 3:35|-. Total win- nings in his three-year old year form, $18,275. Falsetto was then purchased and sent to England by Mr. P. Lorillard, lie paying $18,000 for him ; giving away in one of his legs in liis preparation, he was returned to America and sold to the Woodburn Stud. Falsetto is from one of the great racing families of America, his dam, grandam and great grandam were h ludled but little, but all have produced winners ; Mary Morris, his fifth dam, was a fine race-mare at all distances, aiid was the dam of the two fine race horses, AVild Irishman and Prankfort; her dam was the great grandam of Pa- role, and from tlie same bhiod in a direct line sprang Rattler, Cbilders and Sumpter, all good race-horses and stallions. Flirtilla, by Sir Archy, was out of the same family, ,and from her came Ringgold, the sire of Onward and Delaware. The imported Cub Mare, from which all this stock emanated, was out of Amaranthus, dam by Second, and they truce through popular racing families of England to the Layton Barb Mare. Falsetto, has four of tlie best racing strains in this country to begin with, and his blood is pure through a long line of distinguished horses ; if racing lineage is worth anything, Falsetto must make a successful sire. He is inbred to Lexington, and has the Waxy blood on both sides, from Whalebone, winner of the Derby in 1810, to Whisker, winner in 181o, and his son Memnon, sire of Envoy, won the St. Leger in 1825. He is also very strongly inbred to Diomed through Lexington, Am. Eclipse andGabriella. Falsetto is a brown, stands 10 hands | of an inch high, with a blaze in his face and snip o:i the nose, and four white ankles. He is a grand-looking horse, without any surplus lumber, ami can scarcely fail in the stud. If he is bred to Le.ving. ton mares or tlie daughters of Lexington mares through racing strains he will not fail.

Alex- ander, Woodburu Stud, Ky. ; foaled 1870, dam Aerolite the dam of Mozart, Ruther. ford, Spendthrift, etc., by Lexington 2d, dam Florine, the dam of Idlewild, by imp- Glencoe, out of Melody by Medoc, son of Am. Eclipse. As a two-year-old Fellowcraft started five times and won one race. At Long Branch was unplaced in Hopeful Stakes, one-half mile; unplaced in a dash of three-quarters of a mile; won a dash of three-quarters of a mile in 1 :20, beating Marsyas and three others. At Saratoga was unplaced in the Flash Stakes and in the Saratoga Stakes, same place. As a three- year old he started nine times and won one race. Jerome Park, was unplaced in the Belmont Stakes; was second to Survivor in a dash of \\ miles, run in 2:15f ; was unplaced in the Weatherby Stakes, \\ miles; same place, was third to Tom Bowling and Springbok in tlie Jerome Stakes, 2 miles; was third in the Grand National Handicap 2| miles, won by Preaknessin 4:08f, with Harry Basset second. At Sara- toga was unplaced in the Travers Stakes, 1^ miles, won by Tom Bowling in 3 :09|c Same place, was second in the Sequel Stakes, won by imp. Ill Used in 3:40^ ; same place, walked over for a sweepstakes for three year-olds, 2 miles. When four years- old he started twelve times and won three races. At Jerome Park was unplaced in the Fordham Handicap; also in the Jockey Club Handicap; unplaced in a race of mile heats won by Kitty Pease in 1:43|, 1 :4'4 ; was third in purse race. If miles ; third in Handicap Sweepstakes, 2^ miles, won by Kitty Pease in 4:35-}. At Long Branch, was unplaced in a race of two-mile heats. Same place, won purse, $1,000, 4 miles, in 7:43. Again, same place, was second in a race of two-mile heats, won by Vandaliie n3:49, 3:37. At Saratoga, August 4, was third in a dash of three miles, won by iSpringbok in 5:42J, with Preakness second. Same place, won dash of 1-^ miles in 2:42i^, beating Katie Pease, The Governess and Wanderer. Same place, was second in a dash of 2^ miles, won by Wanderer in 4:00-i. Same place won dash of 4 miles in 7:19^, beating Wanderer and Katie Pease. Tliis was the best race, at the distance, ever run up to that date. The first mile was run in 1:471, two miles in 3:38, three miles in 5:29^, and the four miles as stated. This closed the turf career of Fellowcraft, and since his retirement, while he has had a limited advantage a^ a sire, still he has sired some fast horses. Knight Tem[)lar won threetiuarters of a mile in 1 :14, three-quarter mile heats, in 1 :16f . 1 :161, and one mile in 1 :4J, all of which are very creditable, 1 :14 being the fastest time on record for three-quarters of a mile. Blue Lodge won heats of three-quarters of a mile in 1:20, 1:19J beating Brambaletta, Pilgrimage Maggie C. and others. She ran dead heat and divided Citizen's Plate with Long Taw, at St. Louis, 1^ miles, in 155J. Blue Lodge won some good races in iu 18S2. Fel'owcvaft is only cred. ited with ten foals, three of which are rising two years old. Nearly all that have been trained have won. Fellowcraft is a rich chestnut, with star and two white hind feet, is well formed and a fine blood-like specimen of a horse, 1(5 hunds high. He is hand, somely bred, and was a racehorse with great speed and the capacity to stay over a dis- tance of ground, He is strongly inbred to Diomed and imp. Medley, son of Glmcrack by Crii)plc. son of Godolphin Arabian; he possesses the Waxy blood through Whisker and Whalebone, and numerous crosses to Herod and Eclipse, the pedigree terminating in the blood of Medley by Gimcrack. With a chance he will make a real good sire. The Horse-Breeders' Guide and Hand Booh. 47 PEDIGREE OF FELLOWCRAFT. (S^ §5 Comus. Clinkerina.

FOXHALL, (WINNER OF THE BEDFORD STAKES AND THE BRETBY NURSERY HANDICAP PLATE AT NEWMARKET, IN 1880 ; THE GRAND DUKE MICHAEL STAKES, THE CESAREWITCH STAKE (HANDICAP), THE SELECT STAKES, THE CAMBRIDGESHIRE STAKES HANDICAP AND GRAND PRIX DE PARIS, ALL IN 1881.) FoxHALL, by Kiug Alfonso, son of imp. Phaeton, bred by A. J. Alexander, Wood- turn Stud, Kj'., foaled 1878, dam Jamaica by Lexington, son of Boston, out of Fanny Ludlow by imp. Eclipse, son of Orlando. Foxhall was selected and purchased for James R. Keene, Esq., by S. D. Bruce, when a yearling, and has only raced in Eng land and France. King Alfonso, his sire, can be found in this book ; also Lexington. the sire of his dam. Jamaica, his dam, was never trained, but his grandam, Fanny Ludlow, was a good race-mare ; she won a dash of 1^ miles at Saratoga in 1869, in l:56i, the fastest race ever run at the distance to that day. Mollie Jackson, his great grandam, was Vandal's best daughter ; she was winner from one to four mile heats, won 3-miIe heats in 5:3o^, 5:o4|, 5:28|, the fastest three heats ever run, aud the third heat unequaled to this day ; she ran the ninth mile in 1:48^^. Foxhall made his debut at the Newmarket Second October Meeting in the Bedford Stakes, five furlongs, de- feating Myra, who was favorite at 3 to 1 on her, Ishmael and Mynheer. Same meeting, was second to Savoyard in the Ashley Sweepstakes, five furlongs, beating Simnel, Lam- prey and Montgomerie, Newmarket Houghton Meeting, won the Bretby Nursery Hand- icap Plate, five furlongs, defeating Heyday, the favorite, to whom he gave 24 lbs. , Accel- erato and fifteen others. Heydey was the.f avorite ; this stamped him as a first-class colt. At three years old was second to the great Bend Or in the City and Surburban Hand- icap, with Post Obit, Peter, Prestonpans, Petronel and seventeen others behind him. He then crossed the Channel and won the Grand Prix de Paris, one mile and seven furlongs, defeating Tristan, Albion, Fiddler and six others. The race was run in 3:17. He was returned to England, and without a gallop started in the Ascot Cup but was unplaced. Newmarket First October Meeting, w^on the Grand Duke Michael Stakes across the flat, 1 mile, 3 furlongs, 73 yards, beating Don Fulano, Ishmael and Maske- lyne. Second October Meeting, won the Cesarewitch Stakes (handicap), 2 miles, 2 furlongs, 28 yards, carrying 110 lbs. , defeating Chippendale, Fiddler, Petronel and fif- teen others ; won the Select Stakes for three-year olds, Rowley mile, beating Tristan and Maskelyne. Houghton Meeting, won the Cambridgeshire Stakes, (handicap), \\ miles, carrying 126 lbs., defeating Lucy Glitters (3), 91 lbs., Tristan (3), 107 lbs., lbs., Peter (5), 140 lbs., Bend Or (4), 134 lbs., and 27 others. This is the only time in the history of the turf that the two great handicaps were ever won by one and the same horse, except when Rosebery, a four-year old, won the Cesarewitcli in 1876, with 103 lbs., 7 less than Foxhall carried, and the Cambridgeshire with 117 lbs., 9 less than Foxhall carried, he only three-years old. No horse has ever won this race with the weight carried by Foxhall. He won the Ascot Gold Cup in 1882, and was defeated when out of condition, by Fiddler, whom he had beaten in several races. It is hoped that when he retires he will be returned to America. The Horse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 49 PEDIGREE OF FOXHALL. Economist. Fanny Dawson. Glencoe. Marpessa. Touchstone. Ghuznee.

Application to I), Swigert, Muirs P. 0., Ky. Anmial sale of yearlings in May. Glenelg, by Citadel, son of Stockwell, bred by R. W. Cameron, Clifton Stud, Staten Island, N. Y., foaled 1866, dam Babta, imp. when in foal to Citadel by King- ston, son of Venison, out of Alice Lowe, by Defence, sou of Whalebone. Glenelg was purchased by Hon. A. Belmont, in whose colors he ran all his races. Glenelg was a tirst class race-horse ; did not run at two years old. He made his debut in the Bel- mont Stakes in 1809, running second to his stable companion, Fenian, one mile and five furlongs, in 3:04^. Saratoga, 1869, won the Travcrs Stakes, If miles in 3:14. Same year won the Champion Stakes at Jerome Park (mile heats), beating Vespucius, who won the first heat, and five others, in 1:48^, 1:48|, 1:49. Same meeting ran second to Vespucius in the Annual Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:54, Invercauld, Niagara, Blarne}^ Stoue, etc., behind him ; 1870, June 7, was unplaced in Westchester Cup, won by Helmbold, 3i miles, in 4:11. Same meeting won purse If miles, beating Vespucius, in 3:16|. October 8, won the Maturity Stakes, for four- year olds, 3 miles, in 5:42^^, beating Helmbold. October 11, ran third to Niagara and Mozart, in Grand National Handicap, 2^ miles, in 4:09^ — Glenelg carried 119 lbs. to Niagara's 104, botli four years old. Saratoga, Jidy 14, Glenelg won the Sweep- stake for All Ages, IJ miles, in 2:18i, beating Maggie B. B., Niagara and others. July 15, ran third to Helmbold and Hamburg in Saratoga Cup. 2J miles, in 4:03f. August 16, ran third to Judge Curtis and General Yorke, 1-| miles in 2:40^. August 18, won purse. If miles, in 3:12.}, beating Alta Vela, &c. Long Branch, July 30, ran second to Helmbold, in Monmouth Cup, 2^ miles, in 4:33}. August 2, won dash, 1|- miles, in 2:37|, beating Legatee and others. Baltimore, October 29, won the Bowie Stakes, 4 mile heats, in 7:47, 7:44, beating Niagara and distancing Abd-el-Kader, Nannie Douglas, Plantagenet and Carrie Atherton in the second heat ; 1871, Jerome Park, June 13, ran second to Preaknessin Westchester Cup, 2ir miles, in 4:15|-, beat- ing Helmbold. This closed his turf career. While on the turf he met the best horses and at all distances, and won a large majority of his races with the top weights. He lost one or two races which he would have won but for an ugly habit of turning the wrong way as the flag fell. Citadel, the sire of Glenelg, was a good race-horse. In 1863 he won the Prince of Wales Stakes, at Newmarket, Cesarewich Course, 2 miles two furlongs 28 yards. Same meeting won Free Handicap Sweepstakes, 2 middle miles of Beacon Course — 1 mile 7 furlongs 158 yards, and ran reputably in others. Kingston, the sire of Babta, was one of the best race-horses wdiich ever started in England ; was a winner at all distances, from two years old up to five, carrying tbe heaviest weights and against the best horses of his day, from one to four miles. He was by Venison (son of Partisan and Fawn, by Smolensko), dam Queen Anne, by Slane. The late Mr. Wm. Blenkiron thought the Kingston cross superior to all others, and very many of his daughters were in Middle Park Stud. Glenelg is much inbred to Waxy, through his sons Whalel)one, Whisker and daughter AVeb, and the collateral branches are full of the blood of Eclipse, Herod, Regulus and the Godolphin Barb. Glenelg is a blood bay full 16i hands high, of grand presence, having a beautiful head and neck, running into well-set, oblique shoulders, well covered with muscle ; deep, roomy chest, with good breadth through the heart ; most excellent body, strong back, the ribs running close up to the" hips, which are broad and well rounded, with good length, long well-muscled quarters, and great length from the point of the hip to stifle and thence to the hock, which is well shaped, tapering gradually into the shank, with most excellent legs and sound,, good feet. Taking him altogether, there is not a handsomer, better-formed and more blood-like stallion in the world, with most excellent temper. There are few (if any) of his colts whicn are not handsome and well-shaped, and generally good feeders, with immense speed. Ashe could stay a distance with weight, most of his colts po.ssess these qualities in an eminent degree. The best of his get are Ferida, the equal of -any mare which ever started in America. She has won at all distances; from one to four mile heats, has met and defeated the best, her four-mile heat race in 7:?3i, 7:41, is not (Jonihnicd on page 56.

GLENELG (Imp.)— Continued, only the fastest race ever run by a mare, but the average of the two heats is better than Lecompte's -when he beat Lexington, and better than Fashion's when she heat Bos- ton. Monitor, a winner at all distances, Westchester, Baltimore and Coney Island cups — If miles, in 3:02f ; 2^ miles, in 4:36i ; 3J^ miles, in 3:44A^ ; the fastest ever run at the distance. Other good ones by him are Ada Glenn, Dan Sparling, Aella, Clara D, Bertha, the best mare over timber in America, Judith, Edenderry, Gladstone, Harry Gow, Jennie B, Kitt}' Clark, Lillie R, Mintzer, Post Guard (Gen. Philips), Strathspey, D»nicheff, CammieF, Glenita, Minnock, Harlequin, Vender, Mirth in England, Diana, Orion, Sally Polk, Start in England, Faustina, Vanderdecken, Glencairne. Lotta C, Glen Dudley, Glen Jorsa in England, Glendolin, Susquehanna and Saratoga in Eng- land, Alta B. , Herbert (Tom Plunket), Magnate, Little Minch, Corsair, Arsenic, Heel and Toe and many others. Glenelg is very handsomely and fashionably bred, running back to Eclipse, King Herod, Highflyer blood and many times to the hard-bottomed and stout Whalebone blood. He also has, through his sire, Citadel, across of Glencoe through Pocahontas, the dam of Stockwell. This blood is highly prized in England, and in America it is invaluable, and will ultimately prove itself. Glenelg's stock are all handsome, blood like, speedj^ and stout ; but, like all the other stallions in the country, the best of his get are from Lexington mares, bred from daughters of Glencoe. Glenelg has always stood high as a sire, his stock have invariably good legs and feet, and his daughters will be of inestimable value in the stud. GLENGARRY (Imp. Glengarry will be located for the season of 1883 at the Kennesato Stud, near Gallatin, Tenn., andvnll he permitted to serve mares at $50 each, vnth the privilege of returning next season if not in foal. Ap>p>lication to he made to Gapt. James Franklin, Gallatin, Tenn. GijENGAnRY, by Thormanby, son of Melbourne or Windhound, was bred by Capt. Lane, foaled 1866, dam Carbine by Rifleman, son of Touchstone out of Troica, dam of Comfit by Lanercost. Glengarry was imported in the fatal lot on the Helvetia in December, 1866 — thirty-five out of thirty-nine head were lost on the passage, and those which survived were so badly used up that they were unfit to race. Glengarry was trained, after he seemingly recovered from his injuries, and started in the Hopeful Stakes, 1868, at Jerome Park, five furlong.^, 1:06A, and a sweepstake, half a mile, in .54f, and was unplaced, both won by Bonny Lass. At Jerome Park, 1869, was fourth in the Belmont Stakes to Fenian, Glenelg and Invercauld, one mile and five furlong.*, in 3:04^, with Viola and three others behind him. Ran third in Club Purse to Vespu- cius and Belmont, one mile and a furlong, in 2:08i, track muddy. At four years old ran second to Cottrill, in Fordham Handicap, 1:^ miles, in 2:12^. beating R. B. Con- nolly, Nannie Douglas, Corsicaii, Metarie and three others. Was unplaced in Club Purse, heats of If miles, won bj"- Sanford in 3:15f, 3.-17i, track heavy. Thormanby, his sire, although credited with a double paternity, was unquestionably by Windhound, the son of Pantaloon, by Castrel ; he won the Derby, defeating, among.st others. The Wizard, winner of the 2,000 guineas ; he also won the Ascot Gold Cup in 1861 ; he was sire of Atlantic and Charibert, winners of the 2,000 guineas. Alice Hawthorne, Thormanby's dam, was the best mare of her day in England, won the Goodwood Cup in 1844 and the Doncaster Cup in 1843 and 1844. Glengarry is bred from speedy blood on the sire's side and well fortified on the dam's side by the stout crosses of Waxy, Herod and Eclipse. For his chances he has sired some good colts. Keunesaw is the best produce of his dam ; Matagorda is also a fast and good mare and winner of seven races in one year ; Peru was also a good performer and the best produce of her dam ; Greenland, although an uncertain horse, ran, when fit, some most excellent races ; he won the Great Metropolitan Stakes at Jerome Park, 1| miles, in 2:40|, beat- ing Geo. McCullough, Parole and others. The Cash Handicap at Saratoga, 1^ miles, in 1 :54i, defeating a good field, mile heats, in 1 :45, 1 :45. He is also sire of Capt. Franklin, Gladiola, Emma Cooper, Glenarm, Kingsland, Martinique (London), all winners. He is a brown, 16^ hands high; a well shaped, robust and fine horse, with a broad white stripe down his face — no other white. We expect to see some good ones from his lo'n.s.

Will he located at the Fairoiew Stud Farm, near Gallatin, Sumner Co., Tenn., and lo'dl he permitted to serve mares at |oO each, for the season, and $5 to the groom. Apjjlication to he made to Charles Heed, Gallatin, Te?in. Annual Sales in July, at Saratoga. Highlander, by Blair Athol, son of Stockwell, bred by Mr. Gulliver, foaled 1868 dam Bistre, the dam of Verbena, by West Australian, out of Blister, dam of Maidstone and Cheddington by Bay Middleton. Highlander, from an accident, never raced, but he is bred as fashionably and truly as it is possible to breed a horse for racing purpose! His sire, Blair Athol, was the best son of the great Stockwell. Blair AthoLwon both the Epson Derby and the Don caster St. Leger, and was the sire of Prince Charlie, win- ner of the 3,000 guineas, Scottish Queen and Cecilia, winners of the 1,000 "-uineas, Sil- vio, winner of both Derby and St. Leger, and Craig Miller, winner of the St. Leger. West Australian, the sire of his dam, won the triple events, 2.000 guineas, Derby and- St. Leger, and was sire of The Wizard, winner of the 3, 000 guineas, and Summerside, win- ner of the Oaks, He was also the sire of imp. Australian, which was so successful in America. Bay Middleton, the sire (;f his grandam, was half-brother to Glencoe on 'the sire's side, won the 3000 guineas, and Derby, in 1 836, and was the sire of Hermit, winner of the 3,000 guineas. Aphrodite, winner of the 1,000 guineas, and of the great Flying Dutchman, winner of the Derby and St. Leger, in 1849, Ellington and Andover, winners of the Derby. He also sired Brown Dutchess, an Oaks winner, Amsterdam, Autocrat, Fly-by-Night, Ellen Middleton, dam of Wild Dayrell, Eunice, the dam of Saunterer, Bridal, dam of Special License, and others. Touchstone, the sire of his great grandam,. Hope, was one of the best racehorses of his day, won the St. Leger, the Doncaster Cup,, in 1835 and '36, the Ascot Gold Cup in 1836 and '37, and was the sire of Flatcatcber and Nunnykirk, winners of the 2,000 guineas. Cotherstone, winner of the 2,000 guineas. and Derby, Orlando, winner of the Derby, and Surplice, winner of the Derby and St. Leger, Mendicant, winner of the 1,000 guineas, and Oaks, Blue Bonnet, winner of St. Leger, and the great Newminster, winner of the St. Leger, whose son. The Hermit,, stands at the head of winning sires in England. In addition to his crosses of Glencoe and Priam, both grand ones, he has the Whalebone and Whisker, one of which won the Derby in 1810, and the other in 1815. Highlander has three crosses of Imp. Diomed through his best daughter, Young Giantess, and crosses of Matchem through Maiden, and traces through an own sister of Eclipse to a daughter of Brimmer. The pedigree is rich in blood of the noted winners of the classic events. Highlander cov ered a few mares in England, prior to his importation, and Buz, one of his get, ha& been a winner. None of his colts have started in this country, but, from conformation and constitution, should make their mark. Highlander is a rich brown, 16 hands high, with white blaze in his face. He measures 78 inches around the heart, and below the knee 8 inches. He is a very fine horse through his heart and shoulders, with good body and wide strong hip, and with good mares should get race-horses, or blood from the highest racing sources is a failure.

(WINNER OF THE SEQUEL AND KENNER STAKES, AT SARATOGA 1873,) Will be used as private stallion in the Nursery Stud, Hon. A. Belmont, pro- prietor, near Babylon, L. I., JST. Y. Yearlings sold annually in June. Ill-Used by Breadalbane, owu brother to Blair Athol, son of Stockwell, bred by Col. Townley, foaled 1870, dam EUermire, dam of Elland, by Chanticleer, 3d dam Ellerdale, dam of Formosa, winner of the One Thousand Guineas, Oaks and St. Leger in 1S68, by Lanercost, out of the dam of Colsterdale, by Tomboy. lU-Used made his first appearance on the turf as a three-year old in the Belmont Stakes^ won by Spring- bok, but getting a bad start was unplaced. He won two races out of three starts. At Saratoga won the Sequel Stakes, 2 miles in 3:40^, beating Fdlowcraft and four others. Same place won the Kenner Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:39, beating imp. Strachino, Spring- bok, Waverly, Whisper, Catesby and other good horses. This closed his turf career. Breadalbane his sire is own brother to Blair Athol, and although he did not win any of the great events, the Derby or Leger, he won the Prince of Wales Stakes at As- cot, the Gratwicke Produce Stakes, 1^ miles at Goodwood, and other good races. EUermire his dam won eight races, at three-years old, including two Queen's Plates for mares. Ellerdale, his grandam, was also a winner of several important events, in- cluding the Great Yorkshire Stakes. Lanercost her sire was third in the St. Leger to Don John, and won the Ascot Gold Cup, and Cambridgeshire Handicap. He has covered only one or two mares outside of those in the nursery, and has gotten some very reputable performers. Foiester won as two-years old, and in 1882 won the Withers Stake, one mile, in 1 :46^, Belmont Stakes \\ miles, in 2:43, the Barnegat Stakes, If miles at Long Branch in 2:54, carrying 123 lbs. ; and Jersey Derby, If miles.

It would be difficult to find in the Stud Book, a higher bred horse than Ill-Used. He has a double cross of Whalebone through the famous Irish Birdcatcher, and five other Waxy crosses tlirough Whisker, Web, Pyrrha, Kiss, etc., in addition to a Glencoe cross through Pocahontus and Mel- bourne through Blink Bonny. Ill-Used is a blood bay 15 hands 2^ inches high, with a half moon star in his forehead, near fore and hind legs white to the ankle, off hind foot white around the coronet, and white hairs at the root of his tail showing his Bird- catcher descent.

LEVER Will stand the season of 1883 at the Elmendorf Stud, D. Swigert, 2)ro])rietor, near Lexington, Ky., {if not sold) at the season. Ap- plication to D. Swigert, Muir^s Post O^lce, Fayette Co., Ky. Annual sales of yearlings in 3Iay. Lever by Lexington, son of Boston, bred in the Woodburn Stud, Kentucky, foaled 1863, dam Levity, dam of Ruric, Legatee, &c., by imp. Trustee, son of Catton out of Alaric's and Vandal's dam by imp. Tranby. Lever was never trained, having been injured in one of his hocks when a yearling, but from his high breeding and the racing qualities of the family, he would doubtless have been a superior race-horse. He is by the emperor of stallions, Lexington (admitted to have been not only the best race-horse this country has ever produced, but its most successful stallion); dam Levity (dam of Ruric, Lightsome, Mildred, Legatee, &c.), by imp. Trustee, who was a good third for the Derby iu 1833, won by St. Giles, beating Margrave, who won the Doncaster St. Leger the same year, in which Trustee was again third ; Trustee by Catton (son of Golumpus), dam Emma, by Whisker (own brother to Whale- bone), Web, Woeful, &c., by Waxy). Trustee was a most successful sire, having gotten the renowned Fashion, who distanced Boston and afterward beat him in the great sectional match, the North against the South, for $30,000 a side, run on the Union Course, Long Island, May 10, 1843, in 7:331^, 7 : 45, which was the fastest and best race run to that day Reube, Revenue and other good ones. 3d dam Vandal's dam by imp. Tranby (son of Blacklock, by Whitelock). Blacklock was a distinguished race-horse in his day, starting in twenty- three races and winning seventeen. He was equally as famous in the stud, having sired such horses as Brutandorf, Buzzard, Brownlock, Belzonj, Laurel, Malek, Velocipede, Voltaire, Belshazzar and Tranby. Tranby's dam was by Orville, winner of the Doncaster St. Leger in 1803. He started in no less than thirty-nine races, winning twenty two, the most of them at four miles and over. He was also one of the most distinguished stallions of his day, being the sire of the great Emilius, Master Henry, Bizarre, Souvenir, &c. For many years, Lever was in an obscure neighbor- hood in Scott County, Ky., and covered no thoroughbred mares. Finally, by mere accident, Sally of the Valley was bred to him, and produced Essillah, who won twelve races in one season. He sired Leveler, a capital race-horse, winner of the Clark Stake, at Louisville, 2 miles in 3:37, Merchants Stake, at St. Louis, mile heats, in 1:45, 1:45 1:51, Milon won first heat, and the Viley Stake, at Lexington, 1% miles in 3:073^, and the Kentucky St. Leger Stake, two miles at Louisville in 3:42|, Lou Lanier a fine race-mare and good winner in fast time, Mahlstick, winner of Louisville Cup, 3i miles in 4:07J^. Greely Stakes, St. Louis, three miles in 5:40, one mile and furlong in 1:503^, and three miles in 5:33. Other good ones, all winners, by him, are Sweetheart, Petrel, La Gloria, Lamartine, Okolona, Louise, Harry Mann (Punch), Palanca, Maj. Hughes, and a few others. The colts by him are about the best the mares ever produce, and the few good mares he served, produced good race-horses. A careful analysis of Lever's pedigree, will show that he not only possesses the stoutest and speediest blood of our native stock, but traces through the collateral branches on the dam and sire side to that grand old mare. Lady Grey, from which so many distinguished race-horses, stallions and brood mares have descended. He has also a large infusion of the blood of Diomed, Highflyer, Herod and Eclipse. He stands 15 hands 3i^inches high ; has a neat, well-shaped head, fine ears, good, strong neck running into most excellent, well-set shoulders; great depth of girth ; good, strong, well-muscled back, with round, well-ribbed body ; strong hips, with good length of whirlbone, stifle and thence to the hock ; he has Tranby legs, which look as hard and firm as whalebone with good, sound feet.

LISBON, (WINNER OF THE ALEXANDER STAKE AT LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY, 1876,) Will stand the season of 1883 at theWoodburn Stud Far in, near Spring^ Ky. at $50 the season. Application to L. Brodhead, Spring, Ky., Annual sales of yearlings in May. Lisbon by imp. Phaeton son of King Tom, bred by Richard Ten Broeck, foaled 1874, dam imp. Lady Love by Stocliwell or Caterer, son of Stockwell, second dam Chore Amie by Sweetmeat, out of Blame by Touchstone. Phaeton will be found in this volume, his dam Lady Love was a winner in England at two-years old, and won the Stewards Cup at Chester at four-years old, Chere Amie her grandam was also a race- mare and winner. Caterer the reputed sire of Lady Love was a good race-horse, he won the Findon Stakes at Goodwood when two-years old, defeating Wingrave, Alvediston, Kaiser and others, and was second to the Marquis in the 2000 guineas with Alvediston, Wingrave and thirteen others behind him. Sweetmeat the sire of his gran- dam, was a superior race-horse, won the Queen's Vase at Ascot, and the Doncaster Cup in 184r», he was the sire of Mincepie and Mincemeat, both Oaks winners, and Macoroni winner of the Derby and 2000 guineas, and second in the list of winning sires in 1882. Touchstone the sire of his great grandam Blame, won the St. Leger, the Ascot Gold Cup in 1836-37, and the Doncaster Cup in 1835-36, and was second to no sire of his day. Lisbon started three times as a two-year old and won one race. At Louisville, Ky., won the Alexander Stakes, half mile, in :49|, beating McWhirter and seven others. Was third in the Colt Stakes at Lexington, Ky., three-quarters of a mile. King Faro and McWhirter running dead heat for first place, in 1:18J. In this race Lisbon beat Allen Pinkerton, Headlight, Planetarian and Edingburg. Was third in the Belle Meade Stakes at Louisville, three-quarters of a mile, in 1 :17, won by McWhirter, Baden-Baden second. As a three-year old he started only twice, and was^ unplaced in both of his races. Only a few of Lisbon's get have appeared on the turf, but the performances of Ripple alone have made him conspicuous as a sire. Ripple, the season of 1881, won seven of his eleven starts. He won the Long Branch Handi- cap, \l miles, in 2:101, beating Checkmate, Parole and Sir Hugh; also the Shrewsbury Handicap, If miles, in 3:09f. In this race he carried a penalty of 5 lbs. and 3 lbs. overweight. He unfortunately died that winter. Lisbon is a red bay, full 15i hands high, vrith a blaze face and four white aniiles, he is a horse of immense substance and power, and in conformation second to none, is very muscular like all of Phaeton's sons, and great constitution. In addition to his double cross of Glencoe through King Tom and Stockwell, he has a double cross of Touchstone on each side, four or five crosses of Waxy through Economist and Emma by Whisker and Camel and Sir Herculus by Whalebone, fortified by the blood of Herod through the famous Highflyer, and Eclipse through Pot 8- OS and King Fergus. The blood is worth preserving through the grandaughters of Phaeton and daughters of Great Tom, King Ban and King Ernest. The Horse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Booh. 105 PEDIGREE OF LISBON.

Crucifix, another sistei', is the dam of Fairplay and Quito. Levity, the great grandam of BlHckburn, was the dam of Lever, Legatee, Brenna (the dim of the tine race-mare Lradamante). and of Ruric, by imp. Sovereign, who won two prominent stakes at Lexington, Ky., when three years old, and was sold for $o,000, a high price in those days. The Tranby mare, his fourth dam, was the dam of the great race-horse and superior stallion Vandal, (who won three-mile heats in 5:86, 5:33), Alaric (who was the first horse that ever ran two miles in tiie thirties in America; this he did at Lex- ington, in 1845, winning a second heat in 3::J9), Atala and Volga, etc. Blackburn is a light bay, with large slar and two white ankles behind; he stands, fairly measured, 15 hands and 3^ inches high, has a tine, well-shaped head, with great breadth of forehead, indicating much brain power, well-set on a good-shaped nock with very wide throttle; his shoulders are well-set and oblique, the shoulder blade bemg very broad, with great depth of girt, and his body is large, well-ribbed home to very broad, strong and muscular hips, with great length from point of hip to whirlbone, and thence to stifle and hock he has good bone, broad knees and ex- cellent hocks ; measures tj9A in. around the girth; length of shoulder, 37i in.; around the arm, 19 in. ; below the knee. 8 in.; from point of shoulder to poiutof buttocks^ 64 in. ; from hip to point of hock, 38 in. ; around gaskins, 17 inches His pedigree is a happy combination of speedy and stout crosses, being much in- bred to Diomed through his best son Sir Archy, and from the family which produced Lexmgton and Vandal. If high form and raciU;^ ability, with faultless action coupled with high breeding and lacing descent are tokens of excellence, Luke Black- burn is the peer of any horse living, and must prove an invaluable stallion.

Non Parielle, own sister to Silverhair, by Kingston out of England's Beauty by Irish Birdcatcher, son of Sir Hercules.

Jerome Park, won a dash of one mile and a furlong in 2 :02, beating Consignee, Lord Zetland and four otheis. Was un- placed in the other three races. As a four-year old he started twice and was unplaced in both races. Gladiatuer, ranked as a race-horse second to none, he won the 2,000 guineas, Derby, St. Leger and Grand Prix de Paris, in 1865, and is the only horse which ever accomplished this wonderful feat. Monarque, his sire, won the New- market Handicap, and the Goodwood Cup, and was sire of Reine, winner of the 1,000 guineas, and many notable winners in France. Kingston, the sire of his dam, was one of the noted horses of England, and Non Parielle, his dam, is own sister to Silverhair, the dam of Silvio; which won both the Derby and St. Leger in 1877. His grandam was by Irish Birdcatcher, one of the best and most popular horses that has ever graced the English harem, he proved his quality in The Baron who got Stockwell and Rataplan, England's beauty was the dam of The Rake that the late Joseph Dawson thought one of the best horses he ever trained, not excepting Peter or Prince Charlie. He has a double cross of Whalebone, with Whisker, Venison and Touch- stone, and his pedigree runs through old Penelope the dam of Web, AVhalebone, Whisker and other famous horses and successful stallions. Only one or two of his colts have been trained ; he will be a success with a fair chance. Matador is a dark bay with a few white hairs in his forehead, black legs, and is 16 hands high, and a strong, well shaped horse all over, and of excellent temper.

J., AND HAS ONLY SERVED A FEW MARES OF THE OWNERS WHICH WERE UNCER- TAIN BREEDERS, HE IS FOR SALE AND CAN BE PURCHASED ON APPLICATION TO COL. S. D. BRUCE, "TURF, FIELD AND FARM," N. Y.) Moccasin, by Macaroni, son of Sweetmeat by Gladiateur, bred by Mr. H.W. Deacon, foaled 1874 and imported by Mr. Lorillard when a yearling ; dam Madame Strauss, dam of Rawcliflf and Ormelie, by King Tom, son of Harkaway, out of Jetty Treffz, by Melbourne, son of Humphrey Clinker, by Comus. Macaroni the sire of Moccasin, won tiie 2,000 guineas and the Derby in 1863 and is the sire of Spinaway, winner of the 1,000 guineas and Oaks, Camelia winner of the 1,000 guineas, and of Macheath the best two-year-old in England this year, 1882, and now favorite for the Derby. Sweet- meat, Macaroni's sire, was by Gladiateur second to Bay Middleton in the Derby. Sweetmeat was a noted race-horse, ran twenty-four times as a two and three-year-old, and met but one defeat, he won the Doncastev Cup and other important events. Moc- casin has a double cross of that popular blood Pantaloon, which is famous for speed and staying qualities, and is a true racing strain. Pantaloon's son Van Amberg was second to Coronation in the Derby, and Sitirist, another sou, won the St. Leger, beat- ing Coronation; he is sire of Ghuznee winner of the Oaks and of Cardinal Puff, El- thiron, Hobbie Noble, The Riever, second to West Australian in the St. Leger, Hernandez, winner of the 2,000 guineas, and of Windhound, the sire of Thormanby. Leamington was out of a daughter of Pantaloon. King Tom the sire of his dam is too well known to need comment, sufficient to say he was by Harkaway out of Pochahontas. the dam of Stockwell and Rataplan, by Glencoe. His grandam is by Melbourne, sire of West Australian, winner of the double events, Derby and St. Leger, Blink Bonny winner of the Oaks and Derby, and the dam of Blair Athol winner of the Derby and St. Leger, Sir Tatton Sykes winner of the St. Leger, Cymba and Marchioness winner of the Oaks. The Melbourns areremarkble for size, sub- stance and soundness, large bone and racing shape. Moccasin never raced, but from his colts, all out of mares the refuse of his owner, has sired some very reputable performers. Vampire and Faith won six races out of twenty -four starts in 1881. Vampire three, carried 140 lbs., and ran a mile 1 :46i. The two-year-old P. Lorillard, has won four races out of seven starts this year, 1883. Amazon and Disdain are both creditable performers, Disdain won Optional stakes. He is a dark bay or brown with great substance and power, fine temper and full 16 hands high. He should be invaluable to perpetuate the King Tom strain of blood through the de- scendents of Phaeton, King' Ban and Great Tom.

Oct. 12, won dash of 4 miles in 7:33^^, beating Harry Bassett and King Henry. This closed the turf career of Monarchist. He was relegated to the stud, and has covered onlj' a very limited number of mares. The best of his get are Little RuflSn, winner of the Tobacco Stakes, at Louisville, Ky., mile heats in l:44f, 1:44|, Fireman (Mon- treal), Marchioness, a mile in 1 :41, Mate, ch. f. Miss. Hardaway, Experiment, Storey, winner of Chicago Stakes, 1^ miles, Una B, Josie H (Louise d'Or), Frankie B, win- ner of nine races out of fifteen starts as two-year-old, a mile in 1 :45, and winner of the U. S. Hotel Stake at Saratoga, 1| miles in 2:40^, beating Apollo Boatman, etc., IdaB, John Sullivan (Darley), Monte, Monarch, three-quarters of a mile in 1:14, mile 1:44; Green Stakes at Louisville, and Dixie Stakes at Baltimore, 2 miles 3:44 ; track heavy. Aristocrat, a winner in England. The family is one of the great racing ones of America. The horses have been large winners on the turf, and successful sires, and the mares have almost uniformly been successful and paying investments as brood mares. So if a racing strain is worth anytliing. Monarchist must be a successful sire with the strong infusion of Archy blood on both sides, and he is much inbred to the great English Eclipse. Monarchist is a beautiful bay, 16 hands, with a large star in his forehead and snip on his nose, both fore and near hind pasterns white, and is almost a finished model of a race-horse, no extra lumber, but clean-cut and highly finished. A little inbreeding from him will serve to perpetuate one of the best racing families in the world.

MUSCOVY (Imp.) Muscovy toill be located at the Fairview Stud Farm near Gallatin, Sumner Co., Tenn., and will he permitted to serve mares at |50 each and $5 to the groom. Application to he made to Charles Reed, proprietor, Gal- latin, Tenn. Anmial sale of yearlings at Saratoga, in July. Muscovy by The Drake, son of the great Stockwell, bred by Her Majesty the Queen; foaled spring of 1873, dam Lady of the Manor, the dam of Athbania, Bluestone,etc.,by Yoltigeur, winner of the double events, Derby and St. Leger; 2d dam Hersey, the dam of Bay Celia, Desdemona,etc ., by Glaucus, winner of the Gold Cup at Ascot and Good wood Stakes and sire of Refraction, winner of the Gaks Stakes at Epsom, out of Hes- ter dam of Palmyra, Chatham, The Nabob, etc., by Camel son of Whalebone and sire of the great Touchstone, Launcelot, etc. The Drake, sire of Muscovy, was a winner in his two and three-year-old form and is a stoutly bred horse, being a son of the Em- peror of stallions, Stockwell, and out of a daughter of Pyrrhus the First, a Derby winner, and his great grandam a daughter of Jerry, a St. Leger winner. The Pro- vost, the sire of his grandam, ran a dead heat for second place in the St. Leger won by Charles XII. He has a double cross of Waxy through the brothers Woful, Whisker and Whalebone. Muscovy is bred for speed and stoutness, the pedigree on both sire and dam's side tracing through a long line of distinguished performers in the great Classic events, and is full of Eclipse and Herod blood through their most famous sons, Pot-8o-s and Highflyer, upon the favorite Oriental sources, Godolphin Barb and Darley Arabian. Muscovy never raced ; but some of the best sires, for causes, made no repu- tation on the turf. Muscovy is a very dark brown horse, full 16 hands high, with black points. He is truly shaped all over and full of substance and quality. The Horse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 121 PEDIGREE OF MUSCOVY. AS. .2 la Sir Hercules. Guicciolli. Economist. Miss Pratt.

Glencoe out of Chloe Anderson by Rodolph, son of Sir Archy Montorio, by Sir Archy. Norfolk did not run at two-years old, but made his debut at St. Louis, May 16th, 1864 in the sweepstake for three-year olds,, mile heats which he won in 1 A^\, 1 :47, beating Tipperary and four others. June 7th, 1864, won the Jersey Derby at Paterson, N. J., \\ miles, in 2:46J, defeating Tipperary and ten others. May 23d, 1865, won two mile heats at San Francisco, California, beating Lodi, in 3:43:J^, 3:42f, 3:51f. September 18th, 1865, Sacramento, California, won two mile heats, beating Lodi in 3:37i, 3:38^. Same place September 23d, 1865, won match three mile heats, beating Lodi in 5:27^, 5:29i, the fastest and best two heats ever run. Lexington the sire of Norfolk was the best race-horse and stallion ever bred in America. Norfolk is the peer of his best son if not the best one. His dam Novice was a fine race-mare and daughter of the great Glencoe, his grandam Chloe Anderson was by Rodolph the best race-horse of his day ; he met and defeated all comers ; beat Angora in the great match between Kentucky and Tennessee, four mile heats and won a second heat of three miles, in 5 :40, the fastest ever run at the distance to that day 1836. Norfolk in addition to being a son of the great Lexington and a Glencoe mare, is full of Archy and Diomed blood being very much inbred to those famous horses. Boston the sire of Lexington was by Timoleon by Sir Archy by Diomed. Boston's dam by Ball's Florizel son of Diomed, Lexington's gi-andam was by Sumpter son of Sir Archy by Diomed, Novice, Norfolk's dam by Glencoe, his grandam Chloe Anderson by Rodolph, by Sir Archy Montorio by Sir Archy by Dio- med, Sir Archy Montorio's dam Transport by Virginius by Diomed, Belle Anderson his great grandam was by Sir Archy of Transport by Sir Archy by Diomed, dam Transport by Virginius, by Diomed, and her dam Butterfly was by Sumpter, by Sir Archy, by Diomed. Much of his excellence comes from this hard bottomed blood, Norfolk is a bay, truly shaped all over, and for his chances an excellent sire, the follow- ing of his get have been winners : Bill Hazel, Emma Skaggs, Winters, Maid of the Mist, Scamperdown, Boston, Dice Box, Ballot Box, Snap, Twilight, Vanderbilt, Brad- ley, Morphine, Connor, Trade Dollar, Flood, Ralston, Duke of Norfolk, Lonesome, and Duchess of Norfolk, one of the best three-year olds of the year.

ONONDAGA, (WINNER OF THE JUVENILE STAKES AT JEROME PARK, JULY STAKES AT LONG BRANCH, AND KENTUCKY STAKES AT SARATOGA, 1881.) Will he used as private stallion in the McGrathiana Stud, near Lex- ington, Fayette County, Ky., Milton Young, proprietor. Annual sales of yearlings in May. Onondaga by imp. Leamington, son of Faugh-a-Ballagh, bred by Mr. A. Welsh, Erdenheim Stud, Pa., foaled 1879, dam Susan Beane, dam of Stratford, Sensation , «fec. by Lexington out of Sally Lewis, dam of John Morgan, Hunter's Lexington, Acrobat, &c., by imp. Glencoe. Onondaga as a two-year old started in nine races, of which he won four ; Jerome Park, won the Juvenile Stakes, half a mile in 501, beating Gerald, Memento and twelve others ; Sheepshead Bay, won match three-quarters of a mile in 1 : 15^, beating Sachem ; Monmouth Park, won the July Stakes for two-year olds, five furlongs in 1 : 02^, beating Gerald, Memento and three others ; Saratoga, won the Kentucky Stakes for two-year olds, three-quarters of a mile in 1 : 16, beating Nightcap and Glenarm ; Sheepshead Bay was second in the Surf Stakes for two-year olds, five furlongs, won by Stonehenge Julietta Colt, in 1 : 03i ; at Monmouth Park, was third in the August Stakes for two-year olds, three-quarters of a mile, won by Stonehenge Julietta Colt, in 1 : 16, and was unplaced in his other races. Onondaga complaining in his legs was retired ; he is from one of the great racing families of America, is own brother to Sensation, the invincible horse of his year, his dam is own sister to Acrobat and Hunter's Lexington, and half-sister to John Morgan ; all were good race-horses, and for their chances, successful sires. The pedigree is well- fortified with Arcby and Diomed blood, upon the Eclipse and Herod, and traces through the dam of Medoc to the family which gave Lexington and other famous horses to the country. Onondaga is a chestnut, 15| hands, large star in his forehead, and snip on the nose, with white hairs in his flanks, left hind foot white above the ankle ; he is a good shaped horse, and was quite speedy ; the family is a racing one, and upon good mares should reproduce itself.

PLENIPO Will stand the season of 1883 at the Richland Stxid, near NashvilUy Tenn.y at |25 the season. Application to B. F. Gockrill, proprietor, Nashville, Tenn. Plenipo by imp. Bonnie Scotland, son of lago, bred by B. F. Cockrill, Richland stud, Tenn., foaled 1874, dam Dora by imp. Australian, son of West Australian, ou?^ of Lindora by Lexington, son of Boston. Plenipo was one of the most promising colts in Tennessee, but like many others, his trainer was not satisfied with good work and great speed, so he fell a. victim to too many trials, the fate of very many good horses. At three-year old ran second to Melvern in Commercial Hotel Stake, at Nashville, IJ miles in 2 : 14, track heavy ; in this race, Felicia, Joe Burt, Alice Murphy and two others were behind him. Complaining he was laid up and started in one race, when six years old, and was unplaced. Plenipo was named from his striking resemblance to the famous Lion of Doncaster, Eng. , Plenipotentiary, and is from one of the racing families of America, from it came Picayune, the great gi-andam of Plenipo, she was a fine race-mare, and the dam of the famous race-horses Doubloon, Florin, Louis D'or, she was also the grandam of Quartermaster, the great grandam of Madge, Ventilator, and the great grandam of Vagrant, Bounce, Ella and other good ones. He has an infusion of the blood of Tramp, Buzzard, Plenipotentiary and Whalebone, through Bonnie Scotland, and the Melbourne, Emilius and Whisker blood through Australian, which is well fortified through his dam with Archy and Diomed, and doubled on that of the Godolphin Arabian (Barb). Plenipo is a chestnut, with white stripe in his face, and very much resembles the pictures of the great English horse. Plenipotentiary, hence his name. He is full of substance and quality, with good legs and feet, and taking him all over it would be difficult to find a finer specimen of a race-horse.

POWHATTAN, (OWN BROTHER TO PAROLE), Will stand the season o/" 1883 at the Woodburn Stud, A. J. Alexander, proprietor, near Spi'ing, Woodford County, Ky., at $50 the season. ApjMeatioti to L. Brodhead, Spring, Ky. Annual sales of yearlings in May. PowHATTAN by imp. Leamington, son of ,Faugh-a-Ballagh, bred by Mr. A. Welch, Erdenheim Stud, Pa., foaled 1879, dam Maiden, dam of Parole by Lexington, son of Boston, out of Kittj^ Clark by imp. Glencoe. Powhattan started in only one public race, that at Long Branch, meeting with an accident he was unplaced. He was considered quite promising, and ran a very fast trial at Jerome Park, in the spring. Leamington, his sire, can be found in this Vol. Parole, his own brother, has been one of the noted popular favorites of the Turf. After racing in his three, four and five-year old form in this country, he was sent to England, and won the Newmarket Handicap, last 1^ miles of the Beacon Course, beating the great Isonomy, Lina and three others. He won the City and Suburban handicap, IJ miles, 119 lbs., beating Rdiotto, Cradle and fifteen others, and the great Metropolitan Stakes (handicap), 2|- miles, 124 lbs., beating Castlereagh ; the Great Cheshire Handicap Stakes, IJ miles, carrying 134 lbs., defeating Reefer, Sir Joseph, Ridotto and four others, and also won the Epsom Gold Cup, 1| miles, 125 lbs,, beating Alchemist and Primrose. The family has always been a successful racing one. Maiden, his dam, won the Travers Stakes at Saratoga ; the grandam and great grandam were all winners, and from the stock have come such horses as Mary Morris, Wild Irishman, Frankfort, Falsetto, Felicia, Fortuna, Sumpter, Childers, Rattler, Ringgold, Flirtilla, Mary Wynn, Tom Kimball, Cassandra, The Countess, Turco, John Bascomb, Helen Mar, Ann Merry, Tiger, Ann Innis, Hebron, Meteor, George Kinney, and in the early days of racing. Old Slamerkin. Then on the score of blood and racing lineage, Powhattan should commend himself to the public. Powhattan is a solid bay, with large star, left fore and right hind ankles white, his head is bony and expressive, with large, full eyes, high at the withers like his noted brother, good barrel, great depth of girth, with good loin and fine coupling, and has the Lexington hind leg ; he is 16^ hands high : whilst he has not the racing record of his great brother, he is a Leamington from a racing family on both sides, and as all the Leamington's are successes in the stud, he should be. Flying Childers electrified the world by his brilliant racing career, but his brother, Bartlet's Childers, excelled him in the stud, as also did Cade, his famous racing brother, Lath. Powhattan is much inbred to Sir Archy and Diomed, and traces back without a flaw, through Amaranthus dam to the Layton Barb Mare. The Horse- Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 131 PEDIGREE OF POWHATTAN.

RAYON DOR (Imp.) (WINNER OF THE CLEARWELL AND LEVANT STAKES IN 1878 ; ST. JAMES' PALACE .STAKES, THE GREAT CHALLENGE STAKES, CHAM- PION STAKES AND DONCASTER ST. LEGER, IN 1879,) Will stand the season of 1883 at the Algeria Stud, near Erie, Pa., the prop- erty of Mr. W. L. Scott, as private stallion. Rayon d'Or (Ray of Gold), by Flageolet, son of Plutus, bred in Dangu Stud, France, foaled 1876, dam Araucaria, dam of Chamant, Camelia, etc., by Ambrose, sort of Touchstone, out of Pocahontas, dam of Stockwell, Rataplan, King Tom, etc., by imp. Glencoe. Rayon d'Or made his debut in England as a two-year old by winning^ the Levant Stakes, half a mile, at Goodwood, carrying 133 pounds, beating Flavius, Galantha and two others. At Doncaster, in September, he won a sweepstake, at at three-quarters of a mile, with 139 pounds, beating Cliaribert and Reconciliation At the Newmarket Second October Meeting won the Clearwell Stakes, cariying 131' pounds, with such horses as Ringleader and Bay Archer, 133 pounds each, second and third, and three others; the Glasgow Stakes, at the Newmarket Houghton Meeting, three-quarters of a mile, beating Ringleader and Glencairn. During the winter and spring which followed, Rayon d'Or was much fancied both for the 3,000 guineas and Derby, but his running was a disappointment. He was third to Charibert and Cad- ogan for the 3,000 guineas, and was unplaced for the Derby, won by Sir Bevys. At Ascot, on the first day, he was third for the Prince of Wales Stakes, to Wheel of For- tune and Adventure, but on the third day he won the St. James Palace Stakes with 133 pounds, over the severe " Old Mile," beating Charibert, Ruperra and seven others. At Goodwood Rayon d'Or won the Sussex Stakes, one mile, beating Ruperra, Leap year and Exeter, and won the great Doncaster St. Leger, Ruperra second and Exeter third, and fourteen others unplaced, including the winner of the Derby, Sir Bevys. The next day Rayon d'Or " walked over" for the Zetland Stakes, Mr. Crawfurd's Pell Mell Colt saving his stake. At the Newmarket First October Meeting won the Great Foal Stakes with 131 pounds, beating Discord, Palmbearer and three others, but at the same meeting was beaten by Bay Archer for the Newmarket St. Leger, he yielding 7 pounds, after which Rayon d'Or won the Select 8takes, Rowley Mile, beat ing Discord and three others; the Champion Stakes, across theflat, one mile 3 furlongs 73 J^•^rds, beating Placida, the Oaks winner, Exeter and five others, and the Grea Challenge Slakes, Bretby Course, six furlongs, beating Lollypop, Placida, Parole and others. He ended his three, year-old career by running third for a handicap "Across the Flat " to Out of Bounds, who carried 110 pounds to Rayon d'Or's 136 pounds. His earnings for the year amounted to |87,735. As a four-year-old Rayon d'Or began by winning the Prix du Cadran, 3 miles and 5 furlongs, beating Zut, Salteador and others, and the Prix Rainbow, 3 miles and a furlong, beating Zut and Clocher at the Paris Spring Meeting in March. He was immediately afterward sent to England, where, on tl)e 16th of April, at Newmarket, he " walked over" for the Post Stakes (the two middle miles). At the Newmarket First Spring Meeting — two weeks later — he walked over for the Prince of Wales Stakes (the Cesarewitch Course). At Ascot he won the Rous Memorial Stakes over the New Mile, carrying 133 pounds; but in run- ning for the Hardwicke Stakes at the same meeting over the Swiulej' course (mile and a half) he was beaten a head by Exeter, to whom he was giving 10 pounds.

RAYON D'OR (Imp.)— Continued. Cremorne, the Derby winners of 1871 and 1873. He ran second to Uhlan in Brightoa Cup; won the Grand Duke Michael Stakes at Newmarket First October Meeting; won a free handicap sweepstakes across the flat, and the Jockey Club Cup at the New- market Houghton Meeting. As a four-year-old he ran second to Boiard twice in France; won tlie Claret Stakes at Newmarket, England; was second to Boiard in the Gold Cup, and third to King Lud and Boiard in the Alexandra Plate, both at Ascot. This closed his turf career. Plutus, his sire, was unplaced in the Derby of 1866, but won some races and ran creditably in others. Araucaria, Raj^on d'Or's dam, was the dam of Camelia, winner of the 1,000 guineas, and ran a dead heat and divided the Oaks Stakes with Enguerrande. Chamant, by Mr. Lorillard's Moi'temer, out of Araucaria, won the Middle Park Plate and the Dew- hurst Plate in England at two years old, and at three won the 2,000 guineas. The blood on the sire side is a combination of Touchstone through Orlando, a Derby win- ner. Bay Middleton, son of Sultan, a Derby winner, Venison and Glencoe, through Darkness, a winner of the Ascot Stakes. On the dam's side Touchstone, St. Leger winner, Priam, Derby winner, and Glencoe, through Pocahontas, dam of Stockwell, Rataplan, King Tom, etc. An analysis of the tabulated pedigree will show that he is richly and fashionably bred; he has a double cross of Glencoe, a triple cross of Diomed, a double cross of Touchstone, fortified by the blood of Whalebone, doubled in upon the Herod and Eclipse blood on both sides to the Byerly Mare, dam of the Two True Blues. Rayon d'Or is probably the most magnificent specimen of his race ever imported. He is the highest-priced horse ever shipped across the Atlantic. His cost delivered at his home is little short of !j?40,000. In color he is a rich true chest- nut, with a large, rather faint, star in his forehead, standing 16 hands, 3^ inches in height. He has a beautiful head, very broad between the eyes, with a very fine, clean and tapering ear; neck long, but broad w^liere it enters the head; shoulders well set and broad, with great depth of girth; good, round barrel, with splendid back, hip and loin. His hips will be found broad, with great length from the point of the hip to whirlbone, and thence to stifle and hocks, the latter clean cut and well placed, and the finest, soundest and best set of legs ever seen under ahorse; in fact, it is one of his great excellent points, and certainly nothing is more essential to a good race-horse. Rayon d'Or (Ray of Gold) deserves his name. Bred to the daughters or grandaughters of Lexington possessing the Australian or Glencoe blood, or to the daughters of Bon- nie Scotland with the Lexington Glencoe and Archy blood, he must and will be a grand success in the stud. REBEL Will stand for the season o/lBSS at the stahles of Oapt. W. Cottrill, near Mobile, Ala. Services only hy private contract. Rebel, by Socks, son of imp. Albion, bred by John L. Connally, Haze Co., Texas, foaled 1861, dam Betty Wharton, by Othello, son of imp. Leviathan, out of a daughter of imp. Consol, by Lottery, she out of Lady Huntsville, own sister to John Bascomb, by Bertrand. Rebel may have been a first-class horse as a racer, but we have no record of his performances. Socks, the sire of Rebel, was a fine race-horse; he beat Planet in the Hutchison Stakes, mile heats, at Charleston, S. C, in 1859, in 1:48^, 1 :47|, and the following week won the Hutchison Stakes, same place, 2-mile heats, in 3:41, 3:48 J, beating Fanny Washington and Hennie Farrow. Albion, the sire of Socks, was imported as a yearling. Was a winner at from one to three-mile heats, and famous as a stalion. On the dam's side, Rebel is exceptionally well bred, and is descended from one of the oldest and most noted racing families in America. Othello, sire of his dam, out of Sally Burton, by Sir Archy, was a very fine race-horse at all distances. Imp. Consol, the sire of his grandam, was a successful sire, having gotten the prodigy, Miss Foot; she won a second heat of four miles in 7:35, and in the fall of 1842, beat Argentile and Alice Carneal, Lexington's dam, four-mile heats, at Lexing- ton, Ky., in 7:42, 7:40, the best and fastest race run in the state to that date. His great grandam, Lady Huntsville, was own sister to the great race-horse, John Bascomb, the conquerer of Post Boy in the great match over the Union Course, L. I., by the celebrated Old Bertrand. The family has always been a racing one, Ratler, Childers, Sumpter, Wild Irishman, Frankfort, Parole, Falsetto, and a host of others, trace back to the imi). Cub Mare, through Old Slamerkin by imp. Wildair. The best of Rebel's get are Sam Harper, Ella Htrper, Little Reb, Capt. Fred. Rice, Judith C, Bessie Davis, Tunic, Col Sellers {iiVas Tug Wilson, alias Little Dan), Texan and others, all of which have been winners. Rebel is a dark brown horse, full 16 hands high, with gray or silvered legs. He is a well shaped horie, possessing great constitution which he im- parts to his progeny.

ROSSIFER (Imp.) Mossifer will he located the season of 1883 at the Fairview Study near Gallatin, Sumner County ^ Tenn., and will serve mares at $50 the season, and |5 to the groom. Application to Mr. Charles Reedy proprietor, Gallatin, Tenn. RossiFER by Rosicrucian, son of Beadsman, bred by Mr. W. Blenkiron, Middle Park Stud, dam Fenella, dam of Candahar, Cleveland, &c., by Cambuscan, son of Newminster, out of La Favorita by Monarque. Rossifer, from an injury to one of his ankles, was never trained. Rosicrucian, his sire, own brother to the Palmer, won three out of his four races at two-years old, such as the Criterion Stakes at New- market Houghton Meeting, defeating a field of seven, including Leonie and King Alfred, at three-years old was unplaced in the 3,000 guineas, won by Moslem, and in the Derby, won by his half brother, Blue Gown ; when four years old, won the All- aged Stakes at Newmarket Houghton Meeting, defeating Formosa and Heather Bell ; at five years old, won six out of thirteen races ; the Craven Stakes at Goodwood, defeating Vespasian and others ; the York Cup and the All-aged Stakes at Newmarket, beating Normanby, Kingcraft, &c. ; Beadsman, the sire of Rosicrucian, won the Derby in 1858, and is sire of Blue Gown, winner of the Derby, Pero Gomez, winner of the St. Leger and other good horses ; Cambuscan, the sire of Rossifer's dam, won the July Stakes and Croome Stakes at Newmarket, his only two races as a two-year old. He was unplaced in the Derby, won by Blair Athol, and was third to Blair Athol and Gen. Peel in the St. Leger, he won five races that year and defeated Gen. Peel, the sire of Camballo, winner of the 2,000 guineas ; Monarque, the sire of his grandam, won the Goodwood Cup and French Derby, and was sire of Gladiateur, winner of the 2,000 guineas, Derby, St. Leger and Grand Prix de Paris. The pedigree is a racing one throughout, he has a double cross of Touchstone, two crosses of imp. Priam, through his famous daughters, Crucifix and Miss Letty, both Oaks winners, his gransire, Newminster, on the dam's side, was out of the famous Beeswing, wha won the Ascot Cup and the Doncaster Cup in 1837, and again in 1840, 1841 and 1842, and a thrib])le cross of Whalebone through his great son. Defence, and a double one through Camel, the sire of Touchstone, so that if one wishes to breed to a horse of racing descent, possessing both speed and bottom, the blood of Rossifer cannot be excelled. Rossifer is a bay horse, lull 15^ hands high, without white, is truly shaped, and should get race horses. The Horse- Breeders^ Guide and Hand Book. 139 PEDIGREE OF ROSSIFER (Imp.) m 3 O Lottery.

Saxon is a brown horse, 15| hands, with a plain head, good well placed shoulders, strong back, broad hip and large mus- cular thighs and stifles, with good legs and feet. He has a double cross of Touch- stone and traces through Whalebone and Pot-8-os, several times to Eclipse and through Orville to Beningbrough, by King Fergus, son of Eclipse. The blood is both speedy and stout, and his descendents must be valuable to the thoroughbred horse of this country. Saxon's pedigree has not been given in full until in this volume, where it can be found fully extended, through the noted Coffin Mare.

SPENDTHRIFT, (WINNER OF THE SANFORD STAKE FOR TWO-YEAR OLDS AT LOUIS- VILLE, YOUNG AMERICA STAKE, No. 1, AT NASHVILLE, BELMONT, LORILLARD STAKES AT JEROME PARK, CHAMPION STAKES AND JERSEY DERBY AT MONMOUTH PARK.) Will stand the .'^eason of 1883 at the farm ofWm. 31. Kenney^ Lexington, Ky., at $50 the season. Application to Wm. M. ITenney, Lexliigton, Ky. Spendthrift by imp. Australian son of West Australian, bred in the Woodburn Stud, Ky., foaled 1876, dam Aerolite, dam of Mozart, Rutherford Fellowcraft, etc., by Lexington out of Floriue, dam of Idlewild, by imp. Glencoe. Aerolite, Spendthrift's dam is one of the great brood mares of the Woodburn Stud as lier produce shows, her full sister Idlewild was the best mare of her day, ran 4 miles when five years old, 117 lbs., in 7:26J, and is the dam of Wildidle that ran 4 miles, in 7:25^. Spendthrift was the Phoenomiual two-year old of 1878, won all his races five in number, at Lexington, Ky., won Sweepstakes for two-year olds, one mile, in 1:58^, beating Montreal, Scully and three others. At Louisville, Ky., won the Sanford Stakes for two-year olds, one mile, in 1:46^, beating Montreal, Trinidad and five others, among which was Good- night and Strathmore. Same place won a Sweepstake for two-year olds, one mile, in 1:45. At Nasliville, Tennessee, won the Young America Stakes, No 1, for two-year olds, three-quarters of a mile, in 1:16J, beating Lord Murphy, Charlemagne and Cal. Morgan. At same place, won a Sweepstake for two-year olds, one mile, in 1 :44^, beat- ing Lord Murphy, the only other starter. Season of 1879 he started eight times, won five races, and was second in three. Spendthrift made his first appearance at Jerome Park, May 31. He ran second in the Withers Stakes, one mile, w^on by his stable companion, Dan Sparling, Report was third, Harold, Plevna and Mulrooney unplaced. Time. 1 :48. Spendthrift is really entitled to the credit of this valuable stake, as he was almost pulled to a standstill to allow his companion, Sparling, to win. Same meeting, June 5, won the Belmont Stakes, H miles, deteating Monitor, Jericho, Pawnee, Rochester and Harold ; time, 3:42f. Same meeting, June 10, won the rich Lorillard Stakes, If miles, defeating Harold, Magnetism, Report, Dan Sparling, Monitor, Rochester, Jericho, Board man, Plevna and Eunice. This race was the grandest achievement ever accomplished by a three-year old in America. Spendthrift, who carried 5 lbs. penalty for winning the Belmont Stakes, making his weight 128 lbs. and was almost left at the post. Harold delayed the start by his ugly temper, and gave Spendthrift a vicious kick just as the signal for the start was given. Harold bolted off in the lead, and Spendthrift was the last to leave the starting point, fully 50 yards in his rear. Harold never ran so well before, and led all through the first mile. Spendthrift began to creep up, but made no perceptible gain until a mile had been run, he then began to p iss Lis horses, but had to take the extreme outside of the track to get around them. The excitement was in- tense when Harold turned into the stretch with fully 30 yards lead on Spendthrift. Coming down the straight Spendthrift gradually gained on Harold and collared him at the seven-eighth pole. The race was then over as the game son of Australian came on and won easily by two lengths, Harold second. Magnetism third ; time, 2 :25i. Monmouth Park, Jnly 8, won the Jersey Derby, 1\ miles, defeating his only competi tor, Wilful, with ease ; time, 2:53. Saratoga, N, Y., July 9, Spendthrift met the son of Enquirer, Falsetto, for the first time. The two colts were bred and raised within a few miles of one another, but the former having changed hands, represented the East, and the latter the South. The race was for the Travers Stakes, If miles. Falsetto won, Spendthrift was a good second, Harold third, Jericho and Dan Sparling unplaced ; time, 3:09J. The report was current, just before this race, that Spendthrift had been complaining in his feet, and was also muscle sore. Spendthrift had undoubtedly lost the form tliat he displayed when he won the Lorillard Stakes, which was the best and fastest race ever run in America by a three year old. Same Meeting, x\ug. 12, Falsetto again defeated Spendthrift, wlio finished second, in the Kenner Stakes, 2 mile" ; Jericho was third, Monitor and Harold unplaced ; time, 3:35^. Monmouth Park, Aug. 23, Spendthrift won the Champion Stalies for all ages, li miles, defeating Report, Bramble, Volturno, Harold and Bonnie Oaks ; time. 2:41 J. The track was heavy and slow. Jerome Park, N. Y., Oct. 2, Spendthrift, although unfit to run, starred in the Jerome Stakes, IJ miles ; Monitor won ; Spendthrift second, Report third, Jericho fourth ; time, 3:12. The performances of Spendthrift, in or out of condition, were all creditable as the time and weights will slunv. Spendthrift did not start as four- year old, ran two races at Jerome Park when unfit al 5 years old, was second to Bar- rett, one mile, in 1 :44^, and was unplaced in the other race. Spendthrift has the Touchstone, Whisker and Whalebone blood on the sire's side, the Glencoe on the dam's side, and is much inbred to Sir Archy and Diomed, with the Gimcrack blood through imp. Medley. As Fellowcraft is a success, Spendthrift must be. The Horse-Breeders^ Guide and Hand Book. PEDIGREE OF SPENDTHRIFT. 147 N So W Comus. Clinkerina. Cervantes. Daughter of. Camel. Banter. Whisker.

STONEHENGE (Imp.) (WINNER OF THE COTTAGERS' CUP AT LONG BRANCH, 1873,) Will be located during the season at the Mroohdale Stud, Mr. D. D, Withers, proprietor, near Hohndel, N'. J., and used as a private stallion. Stonehexge, by Blair Athol, best son of Stockwell, bred by Mr. W. Blenkiron, foaled 1870, dam Coimbra, dam of Light Wine, etc., by Kingston, son of Venison, out of Calcavella, dam of Queen Bee, etc., by Irisli Birdcatcber. His sire, Blair Athol, won the double events, Derby and St. Leger, and his sire, Stockwell, was the greatest and grandest of all the English stallions. Kingston, the sire of his dam, traveled all over England, and was winner in the best of company. Irish Birdcatpher, by Sir Hercules, son of Whalebone, was not only a good race-horse, but he got The Baron, winner of the St. Leger, and he got Stockwell and Rataplan. Birdcatcher was also Sire of Daniel O'Rourke, a Derby winner, Songstress, winner of the Oaks, Knight of St. George and Warlock, winners of the St. Leger. Faugh- a-Ballagh, the sire of Leam- ington, was own brother to Birdcatcher. Stonehenge made his debut as a two-year-old in the Nursery Stakes at Jerome Park, but was implaced. This was his only start in his two-year-old form. When three years old, he started six times, won one race, the Cotagers' Cup, at Long Branch, 1^ miles, in 2:44|, He was third to Tom Bowling in the Robins Stake, with Lizzie Lucas and The Minstrel behind him. Was third to Survivor and Fellowcraft in a race of IJ miles, with four others behind. He was un- placed in his other races. The Julietta colt showed himself a good two-year-old. He won the Surf Stakes at Sheepshead Bay, 5 furlongs, in 1 :03i, beating Onondaga and Memento ; won August Stakes at Long Branch, three-quarters of a mile, in 1:16, with 115 lbs., beating Wyoming, Onondaga and Memento. Was second in 1882 to Forester, in the Withers Stakes, second to Runny mede, in the Tidal Stakes at Sheepshead Bay. one mile, in 1:43|, Won Club Purse, one mile in 1 :43|^, beating Barrett and Fellowplay. Buckstone (2) won the Moet and Chandon Stakes, three-quarters of a mile in 1 :21, track heavy, defeating a field of five. Won the Homebred Produce Stakes, three-quarters of a mile in 1 :18|, both at Long Branch. Very few mares were ever bred to Stonehenge. He is a blood bay, with blaze face and snip, near hind leg roan and white to the hock, is fifteen hands, 2i inches high, and weighs 1,140 lbs. With a Glencoe cross, through Stockwell, and a double cross of Whalebone, through Irish Birdcatcher, fortified by the blood of Eclipse and Herod, he only needs a chance to distinguish himself as a sire.

Strachino, by Parmesan, son of Sweetiijeat, bred by Lord Bradford, foaled 1870, dam May Belle, dam of Waterwitch, Rosabel, etc., by Hetman Platoflf, son of Brutan" dorf, out of a daughter of Sultan, sire of imp. Glencoe. As a two-year old, Stracbino started three times; was second to Count D'Orsay, in a Sweepstakes for two-year-olds, three-quarters of a mile, in 1,19^, and unplaced in the other two races. When three year old he started five times and won two races. At Saratoga, won dash of IJ miles, in2:llir, beating Joe Daniels, Ortolan and Wizard. Same place, August 5, won the Summer Handicap, 2 miles, in 3 :36f ; was second to imp. Ill-Used in the Kenner Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:39. He was then retired from the turf and placed in the stud. Parmesan, his sire, was a good horse, and sired Cremorue, who won the Derby and Grand Prix-de- Paris, in 1872, and Ascot Gold Cup in 1873, and also Favonius, winner of the Derby and the Goodwood Cup. Hetman Platoff, the sire of his dam, was a superior race- horse ; sire of Cossack, winner of the Derby, and the dam of Daniel O'Rourke, winner of the Derby, and Knight of St. George, winner of the St. Leger. Sultan, the sire of his grandam, was the sire of imp. Glencoe, Ibrahim, Bay Middleton and Achmet, win- ners of the 2,000 guineas ia 1834-35-36 and '37. Bay Middleton, also won the Derby. Muley, the sire of his great grandam, was the sire of imp. Margrave, Leviathan, and Little Wonder, a Derby winner. The most creditable of Strachino's get, are, Strych. nine, and Neufchatel, both showed themselves good horses. Strychnine's races were principally over the timber. He won \\ miles, over six hurdles, in 2:50J; won IJ miles, over five hurdles, in 2:19^, and several other good races. Neufchatel won Rancocas Handicap, one mile and a furlong, in 1:57, and purse at Saratoga, same dis- tance, in \•y^^\. Other winners by him are, Baby, Ersilia, Hope (Sphinx), Peytoaa Barry and Sinbad. He has only covered a very few mares. Strachino is a black, 15^ hands high, well and truly shaped, but a little light in bone. He is a finely bred horse, and much inbred to the famous Pot-8-os, son of Eclipse on both sides, with a large infu- sion of Herod blood, through his best sons, and traces through the famous Lady High to the old Montague Mare.

STRATFORD Will be used as private stallion in the Chester Valley Stud, Chester Valley, Pa.^ the property of A. J. Cassatt, Exq. Stratford (Leamington 2d), by imp. Leamington, son of Faugli-a-Ballagh, bred by A Welch, Erdenheim Stud, Pa., foaled 1873, dam Susan Beane, dam of Sensation, by Lexington, son of Boston, out of Sally Lewis, dam of Hunter's Lexington, John Morgan Acrobat, etc., by imp. Glencoe. Stratford was an exceedingly promising horse as a two-year old, but having been taken with a severe attack of distemper, was totally unable to start and the disease left him in such a poor plight, having injured hislungs, so that whilst he had speed, he was unable to stay a distance. At three j^ears old he started in fifteen races, winning two, running second in five, third in one, and un- placed in the others. Point Breeze Park, Pa., won purse three-quarters of mile a in l:17i, beating Durango, Paladin, and four others ; same place won purse heats of half a mile in :49f, :49i, :49|, beating First Chance, who won first heat, Hobkirk and'Grey Lag, the fastest three heats ever run. Jerome Park, ran second to Ambush, one mile in 1:48, beating Woodlands. Long Branch, ran second to Romney, three quarters of a mile in 1:18. Faithless Hattic F, and three others behind him. Point Breeze Park ran second to First Chance, three quarters of a mile in 1:15, beating Culpepper and two others. Ran second to Waco, one mile in 1 :44, beating Hobkirk, Emma G and another. Washington, D.C., ran second to Burgoo, \^ miles in 2:14, beating First Chance, Fadladeen and one other. As a four year ran unplaced in three races. Stratford is a highly bred horse, own brother to the great Sensation, and is bred from one of the great racing families of America, a family which werealmost uniformly large and profitable winners on the turf, and very success- ful as stallions and broad mares, the family which produced Sensation, John Morgan, Acrobat, Hunter's Lexington, Motto, Nannie Lewis, Glenmore, and a host of others, possessing speed, conformation, racing lineage and blood he cannot fail as a sire. Stratford is a brown, 15| hands, with a Leamington blaze in his face and black legs, he has magnificient shoulders, good middle piece, good back hip and loin, and excellent legs and fee^. He much resembles his sire in general conformation and appearance. llie Horse-Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 155 PEDIGREE OF STRATFORD. Waxy. Penelope. u '^ Iiish Escape. Young Heroine. Buzzard.

J , IN 1867,) Will stand the season of 1883 at the Elmendorf Stud, Fayette County, Ky., at the season. Application to D. Swigert, Muir^s P. 0. Ky, Annual sales of yearlings in 3Iay. ViEGiL by Vandal, son of Glencoe, bred by Hymen C. Gratz, Woodford County, Kentucky, was foaled spring of 1864, dam Hymenia, dam of Ansel, Mollie Wood, etc., by imp. Yorkshire, son of St. Nicholas by Emilius. Virgil was a good race- horse, he wnn at Patersou, N. J., in 1867, mile heats, in 1:51^. 1:51, beating Dot, Mittie and Metarie, track heavy ; Jerome Park, won mile heats, in 1:48, 1:50^, 1:49, Beating Morrissey, No. 8, and otliers ; at Saratoga, won three-quarters of a mile in 1 :181, beating Annie Workman, Luther and others ; was second to Ruthless in Sequel Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:37^; at Paterson Fall Meeting, won mile dash, beating the noted James A. Connolly, Redwing, etc., in 1:48^ ; same place, won Sequel Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:48|, beating Morrissey. After the death of Mr. R. A. Alexander, in 1867, he passed into the hands of Mr. Swigert, and ran a few races ; was then sold and put at work over timber. In 1871, won 1-J miles, over six hurdles, in 2:48f, and two mile heats, over eight hurdles, in 4:08, 3:58 ; ran a dead heat in one with Blind Tom ; was second in two others, and third in one ; in 1872, ran second in one race. Vandal, the sire of Virgil, was the best son of Glencoe, not only as a race-horse, but as a sire ; his turf career vv'as short but brilliant ; he won three mile heats, in 5: 36, 5:33. Imp. Yorkshire, the sire of his dam, was a very successful stallion, being the sire of Zampa, Magic, Modonna, Princeton, Wagram, Waterloo, Lodi and a host of others. Virgil's first foals came out in 1875 ; as two year olds, he had only nine living ; Vagrant won nearly all the two-year old stakes at Lexington and Louisville, and the following year, vv^on the Pho-nix Hotel Stake at Lexington, \\ miles, in 1 : o6f ; the Kentucky Derby at Louisville, li miles, in 2:38i, beating Creedmore, Parole and others ; he also won the Grand Exposition Stakes at Philadelphia, li miles, in 2:42^. Vigil, another son, in 1876, then three years old, won the Summer Handicap at Saratoga, If miles, in 3:07J; the Grand National Handicap at Jerome Park; 2^ miles, in 4:11 ; won Dixie Stakes at Baltimore, 2 miles, in 3:41^, beating. Parole, Heretog and Algerine, track heavy, and taking up a penalty of five pounds; won the Breckenridge Stakes, 2 miles, in 3:37J, beating Parole and Virginius, he also won other good races. Vera Cruz, another of the same year, was a first-class horse, won the Sweepstake for all-ages at Saratoga, 1877, IJ miles, defeating Ochiltree and Parole ; won the Breckenridge Stake at Baltimore same year, 2 miles, in 3: 40 J, and the Kentucky St. Leger, 3 miles, at Louisville, in 3:35; other good ones by him are Virginius, Virgilian, Vermont, Fairplay, Blossom, Santa Anita, Valparaiso, Pride, Virginia, Valleria, Vinita, Frank McLaughling, Vici, Joe Rodes, Memento, Vanguard, Uberto, Carley B, a winner of the Travers '^Stakes, 1882 ; the Rebel Stakes, and a mile and a furlong in 1:55. Anglia, Clarence, Cliquot, Mistral, Mamie O, Harry Hill, a real good horse, Nana, Little Katie, Kite, and last, though not lejist, Hindoo, the best horse which has appeared in this country for more than twenty years, for his brilliant performances. I must refer you to his card in this book. Virgil is a dark brown, standing full 16 hands, with a bright star in his forehead. He has quite a neat head and ear; fine, good neck ; well placed, oblique shoulders ; good depth of girth ; well-shaped body, ribbed home to broad, strong liips, with good sweep in his quarters. He was roughly used toward the end of his racing career, and, in consequence, his legs show the effects of his knocks over the timber. He is yet vigorous and in fine health, and was^ at the head of the list of winning sires in 1881, and'bids fair to earn greater laurels as a sire. He has crosses of Dionied and American Eclipse, and is very much inbred to the famous English Eclipse on both sides, and to the Godolphin Barb.

AMERICAN ECLIPSE (WINNER OF THE GREAT SECTIONAL MATCH BETWEEN THE NORTH AND SOUTH, RUN OVER THE UNION COURSE, I.. I., MAY 27th 1823 BEATING HENRY.) Eclipse, by Duroc, son of imp. Diomed, bred by Gen. Nithaniel Co'.es, Desoris, Queens Co., L. I., foaled May 25th, 1814, dam Miller's Damsel, by imp. Messenger^ son of Membrino, out of imp. mare by Pot-8-os, son of the great English Eclipse. Eclipse was trained at three years old, and tried; and again at four years old ; but ran his first race at five years old, at Newmarket, Long Island, 2-mlle heats, which he won, beating Black-eyed Susan, by Sir Archy, and Sea Gull. March 15th, 1819, Eclipse was sold to Mr. Van Ranst, and in .lune, 1819 won Club Purse, at Bath L. I., defeat- ing Little John, by Potomac, Bond's Eclipse, and James Fitz James. October, same year, won Club Purse at Bath, 4-mile heats, beating Little John, Fearnought, and one other, in 8:13, 8:08. In 1820 and '21 he covered mares on Long Island. October 15th,. 1821, won the Club Purse, Jamaica, L. I., 4-mile heats, defeating the noted Lady Lightfoot, then nine years old. Flag of Truce and Heart of Oak, in 8:04, 8:02. Lady Lightfoot was distanced in the second heat. In May, 1822, won Club Purse over the Union Course, L. I,, beating Sir Walter, by Hickory, in 7:54, 8:00. October, 1823, won Club Purse, 4-mile heats, over Union Course, beating Sir Walter, Duchess of Marlborough, and Slow and Easy, in 7:58, second heat no time. A challenge having appeared in a New York paper in which Jas. J. Harrison, of Virginia, proposed to run Sir Charles by Sir Archy, against Eclipse, 4-mile heats, for $5,000 or $10,000, the race to be run over the Washington Course, the challenge was accepted by Mr. Van Ranst, and |5,000 forfeit put up on each side, the race to be run Noveml/er 20th. Both horses came to the post and the riders were mounted, when Mr. Harrison an- nounced that in consequence of an accident to Sir Charles, he would pay forfeit, but proposed to run a dash of 4 miles, for $1,500 a side. This was accepted, and the horses started. The first two miles were run in 3:50, when Sir Charles broke down, and Eclipse galloped the balance of the distance. Sir Charles carried 120, and Eclipse 12G lbs. On the evening of the same day. Col. Wm. R. Johnson, of Virginia, propos- ed to produce a horse on the last Tuesday in May, 1823, to run 4-mile heats ag&inst Eclipse, over the Union Course, for $20,000 a side. The challenge was immediately accepted by John C. Stephens, Esq. John Richards, intended for the match, broke down, and Henry, by Sir Archy was substituted. The race was run May 27th, 1823. Henry won the first heat,7:37i, Eclipse the second and third in 7:49, 8:24, Eclipse car- ried 126 lbs., Henry (4), 108 lbs. Col. Johnson again challenged to run Henry against Eclipse, the same race, for $20,000, or $50,000, but the challenge was declined. Eclipse was as famous in the stud as on the turf. He stood in New York, Virginia, and Kentucky. The most famous of his get were, Ariel, Lance, Lady Jackson, Black Maria, Shark, Goliah, O'Kelly, Godolphin, Maryland Eclipse, Rocker, Medoc, Midas, Mingo, Ten Broeck, Monmouth Eclipse, Bay Maria, Tom Kimball, Gano, and many others. Ariel was the great mare of her day. She ran fifty-seven races and won forty-two, seventeen of which were 4 mile heats. Black Maria also ran a large number eleven winning ones, at 3 and 4- mile heats. Eclipse was a chestnut horse, 15J hands high, with a star in his forehead and near hind foot white; was heavy set, and full of bone and muscle. The following were some of his measurements : head 23| in. ; neck 25 in.; from point of shoulder to point of buttocks 65f in.; girth 74 in.; around the arm, 21| in. ; below the knee, 7| in. ; around the tibia 18| in. ; the hock 16f in. ; from hip to point of hock 37^ in.; he measured the same around the flank as girth 74 in., and the same height at hip as withers, 61 in. An examination of his pedigree will show that he was very much inbred to the Darley Arabian, through Chlldeis, and to the Godolphin Arabian through Blank, Cade, Regulus and Cripple. Eclipse died the property of Jilson Yates, in Shelby County, Ky., in Aug, 1847, then in the 34th year of his age. The.

BONNIE SCOTLAND (Imp.) (WINNER OF THE LIVEKPOOL ST. LEGER AND DONCASTER STAKES- IN 185G.) BoNNrE Scotland, by lago, son of Don John, winner of the St. Leger in 1838, bred by Mr. W. 1' Anson, foaled 1853, imported by Capt. Cornish into Boston in 1857, dam' Queen Mary, dam of Bahownie ; Haricot, dam of Caller Ou and Blink Bonny, dam of Blair Athol by Gladiator. Bonnie Scotland was badly hurt at two years old, but he came out when three years old and started in four races, winning two, running second in one and unplaced in the other. He won the Liverpool St. Leger, twenty- three subscribers. If miles, beating Omar Pacha, Tom Thumb, and two others ; was fourth in the Great Yorkshire Stakes at York, 176 subscribers, won by Fazzoletto, with Brother to Bird on the Wing second. Stork third. He ran second to Warlock for the Doncaster St. Leger, 133 subscribers, twenty-five starters, St. Leger course. In this race he beat Ellington (winner of the Derby), Artillery, Rogerthorpe and others. He won the Doncaster Stakes, 1-^ miles, ninety-three subscribers, beating Ellington (the Derby winner), Brother to Bird on the Wing, Manganese, Alleppo, California and others. This was his last race. After his importation lie was purchased by ^Messrs. Reber and Kutz and taken to Ohio. There being few thoroughbred mares in that State he made no reputation, sired Malcolm, Dangerous and Ontario; he passed into the hands of E. A. Smith, when he got Frogtown, a capital good horse. Smith sold him to Messrs. Parks, of Illinois, where he got Experience Oaks and Nathan Oaks. From Parka he passed to the hands of Gen. W. G. Harding in 1872, and commenced his brilliant career as a sire of winners ; the first of his get were Belle of the Meade, an excellent two-year-old, and Bushwhacker, winner of the Bowie Stakes and the Great Long Island Stakes, both 4 mile heats. Although dead, he stands, in 1882, at the head of winning sires, and his winning sons and daughters are a legion. The following, the most noted, will show his quality as a sire : Aranza, Brambaletta, 5 furlongs, in l:02i; 7 furlongs, 1:30; one mile and a furlong in 1:54, the fastest on record. Bye the Way, Bonnie Wood Bramble, mile heats in 1:43, 1:44; 1^ miles, 118 lbs., 1:58;. 2J miles, 4:01g. Boardman, mile in 1 :40|. Boatman, 115 lbs., 2 miles, 3:34. Barret,, three-quarters in 1:14, the fastest on record ; 1^ miles, 118 lbs., in 1:56J. Ben Hill,. Bonnie Carie, Baton Rouge, Belle of the Highlands, 1^ miles in 1 :55i. Bye and Bye, Bushwhacker, 2 miles in 3:30 ; 4 miles, 7:31 ; 2 mile heats, 3:36, 3:36^ 3:38 J. Balance All, Beatitude, Boulevard, Bayard, Bounce, mile heats in 1:42, 1.41| ; mile and 3 fur- longs in 2:23J. Bride Cake, Boswell, Bingin, Bathgate, Bombast, Bonnie Castle, Brooklyn, Bliss, Big Medicine, Bootjack, mile in 1:42; ly^^ miles in l:49f ; Baltic, Bosworth, Bancroft, Duke of Kent, Joe Howell, three quarter heats in 1 :14^, 1 :14^, 1:15, fastest on record ; Julia Bruce, Maggie Ayr, Luke Blackburn, H miles in 2:34, fastest ever run ; If miles, 3:04 ; 2 miles. 8:35J ; Glidelia, If miles in 3:01, the fastest in the world ; J. W. Norton and a host of others. His daughter, Kelpie, produced Janet, 4 miles in 7:25. Ontario produced McWhirter, 2 miles in 3:30^, the fastest ever run by a three-year old. Being a half brother to Blink Bonny, the dam of Blair Athol, and from a family which has produced the greatest number of noted horses, his de- scendants should be valuable in the stud. The long list named speaks volumes for the Belle Meade Stud, as nearly evefy animal named was bred there Two sons of the old hero are located there and the blood should be preserved to the country, and there is no better opportunity than to cross his sons on the Lexington and Glencoe blood, and it will prove our theory that in breeding is the surest and best mode to rear the race horse and the only way to preserve and perpetuate pure blood and racing strains. His stock are all remarkable for soundness, symmetry, muscular power, good acrion. with the best of feet. He died at Belle Meade, Feb. 1st, 1880, in the twenty-seventh year of his age, game to the lasi moment.

Glencoe was much inbred to Herod, Eclipse and Matchem. Few of his sons were ever in the stud, as he was notorious as a getter of fillies. Van- dal sired Mollie .Tackson, AltaVela,Vandnlite. Virgil, sire of Hindoo; Coral, the dam of Wanderer and Uncas, and other noted ones; Star Davis, sire of Matt Davis, Day Star and others. It is safe to say that few or none of the most famous horses now on the tuif but have a cross of Glencoe. Glencoe stood in Alabama and Tennessee from 1837 to 1848; he was then purchased by W. F. Harper and taken to Kentucky, where he stood to the day of his death. He was purchased by the late A. Keene Richards in the summer of 1857 and died at his farm in August of that year, aged 26 years. Such was his indomitable courage that he literally died standing upon his feet. His name and fame is as enduring as time. LEAMINGTON (Imp.) (WINNER OF WOODCOTE STAKES AT WARWICK, CHESTERFIELD- STAKES AT DERBY, STEWARDS CUP AT SHREWSBURY, CHESTER CUP AT CHESTER, AND GOODWOOD STAKES.) Leamington, by Faugh-a Ballagh, son of Sir Hercules, bred by Mr. Halford, foaled 1853, dam by Pantaloon, son of Castrel ; Faugh-a Ballagh was own brother to Irish Birdcatcher, and won the St. Leger in 1844; Pant;iloon, sire of Leamington's- dam, was a superior race-horse; started seven times as a three-year-old; won six races, and was first in the seventh, but disqualified for loss of weight.

His daughters have made the reputation of nearly all the stallions in the country and his sons are not failures as evidenced by the breeding of the daughters of Jack Malone, Asteroid and Kingfisher. The difficulty is that they have not had access to the blood and could not with the views of breeders get the best mai'es. Lexington was a blood bay, stanrling 15| hands high, with four white feet above the ankles, a large star and white strip down the face, extending over the upper lip. He was not only the best race-horse America has ever produced, but the emperor of stallions. He died July tst, 1875, in the Woodburn stud, having lived until two of his sons sold for more than was given for liim, $15,000, Npifolli'$15,001, Duke of Magenta |-20.000. The blood is worthy of preservation, and tllis can only be done by some in breeding. PHAETON (Imp. Phaeton, by King Tom, son of Harkaway, bred by Mr. J. Johnstone, foaled 1865, dam Merry Sunshine, by Storm, son of Touchstone. As a raco-horse Phaeton from some unknown cause was a failure. Started once as a two-year old, ran third in the Findon Stakes, three-quarters of a mile, at Goodwood, to Rabican and Vale Royal, beating Ajax, Tibicen, False Alarm, Elmira and Madrid. At three years old, started once in plate for three-year olds, Rowley mile (one mile 17 yards), at Newmarket First Spring Meeting; was unplaced, Vale Royal winning, with Hipp a second. This ended his turf career. His success in the stud was phcenoininal, he got race-horses from all kinds of mares and every variety of blood, but those from the daughters of Lexington and Vandal were his best. 'J'he first, two, or three years he covered but few mares, but in 1H73 he sired King Alfou.'so, Ten Broeck, Katie. Phoebe Mayflower, Pliyllis, St. Martin, Tolona and Aramis. King Alfonso won the Tobacco Stakes at Louisville, mile heats 1 :44^, 1 :4-)^. The Kentucky St. Leger, 2 miles in 3:34^, beating Tea Broeck, Geo. Graliam and others; and The Gait House Stake, 2 mile heats in 3:34, 3:40J, 3:19, boating Geo. Graham, who won the first lieat by ahead from King Alfonso, Emma C and three others. Ten Broeck ran and won in and out of condition, he won many of the prominent stakes, and has the fastest mile on record l:39f, the fastest two miles 3:27i, three miles in 5:31 and 5:26.V, the third best on record, and the fastest four miles in the world, 7:15J. Tolona won l| miles in 2:38f, 2 miles in 3:36i, and 2^ miles in 4:35J,. Phyllis won U miles in 2:37^, and U mileswith 1:51 lbs. in 2:01. St..

PHAETON Imp.— Continued. ■weighed, when in condition, over 1,300 lbs. He had a remarkably neat head, ear and good, strong, -well-shaped neck, great breadth of forehead and width of jaw. His shoulders were oblique and well placed, with muscle well distributed over a broad shoulder-blade, great depth of girth; well shaped, round barrel, ribbed home to strong, broad, muscular hips; his back and loin a model of strength ; great length from the point of the hip to the whirlbone, and thence to stifle and hocks. Cut him off at his knees, and it would have been difficult to find a more perfect model of shape, strength and muscular development. But his legs were very defective, and particularly light below the knee for such an immense carcass. None of his descendants have bad legs. He was a handsomely bred horses. In addition to his double cross of Touchstone, he had the Glencoe, Whalebone and Whisker blood upon the foundation of Herod, Eclipse and Matchem. He died the property of Richard Ten Broeck in the spring of 1874, just as his value as a stallion was established, and in the zenith of his fame; the blood, conformation and constitution of this great horse should be preserved. SIR ARCHY. Sir Archy, by imp. Diomed, son of Florizel by Herod, bred by Col. John Tayloe, Mt. Aery, Va., foaled 1805, dam imp. Castianira, by Rockingham, son of Highflyer, by Herod. Sir Archy, although bred in Virginia, was from imported English sources on both sides. Castianira, his dam, was imported wheu three year old by Col. Tayloe, in 1799, and ran successfully in Virginia. Sir Archy was her second foal, and made his first appearance on the turf over the Fairfield Course, Va., in the sweepstakes, two mile heats; seven started; the race was won by True Blue, defeat- ing Sir Archy, Wrangler, Virginius and others; no time. At Washington, D. C, he was distanced in a sweepstake by Bright Phoebus, own brother to Miller's Damsel, the dam of Am. Eclipse; no time. He was laboring under an attack of distemper in both of these races. Col. W. R. Johnson now purchased him, and the following spring, 1809, won the Post Stake at Fairfield, Va., distance and time not given. The follow- ing week he was defeated at Newmarket, Va., for the Club purse, four miles heats, by Wrangler, after a desperate struggle; no time given. In the fall of the same year he Avon the Jockey Club purse at Richmond, Va. , four miles heats, defeating Wrangler, Ratray, Tom Tough and Minerva. Sir Archy took the lead and ran the first two miles in 3:46, very fast at that date, when tbe race was over, he almost walk- ing over the score. The following week he distanced the field in the first heat of a four mile heat race at Newmarket, Va. ; no time. In a fortnight he defeated Blank for the Jockey Club purse, four miles heats, at Scotland Neck, N. C, in 7:52-8:00. The following day he was purchased by A. J.

Sir Archy was a blood bay with no white except the heel of his right hind foot, full 16 hands high, his shoulders were unexceptional, very deep in his girth, back short and strong, arms and thighs long and muscular and bone large. He possessed both speed and bottom and remarkable constitution which he imparted to all his stock. The more of this blood we can get into our race-horses of the present day the l)etter.

VAJifDAL by Glencoe, son of Sultan, bred by Dr. B. W. Dudley, Lexington, Ky., foaled 1850, dam Alaric's dam by imp. Tranby, son of Blacklock. Vandal was a first- ■class racehorse, did not start as a two-year old, but came out the spring he was three years old, and was distanced the first heat, in the Association Stake, mile heats, won by Darley (Lexington), in 1 : 55|^, 1 : 57, the track was fetlock deep in mud, and the rain pouring down in sheets ; Louisville, Ky., won the Gilt House Stake, mile heats, in 1:51, 1:53, 1:56, track very heavy, beating Ellen Bateman, Madonna, winner of the first heat, distanced in the third, and Campbell's bay colt by Altorf ; same meeting, ran second to Fanny Fern in sweeptake, mile heats, in 1:52|, 1:53, track heav}- ; Garret Davis, Wild Irishman, and Madonna behind him ; Mobile, Ala,, won sweeptake for three-year olds, mile heais, beating Midway in 1 : 5G|, 1 : 57, track heavy ; New Orleans, ran second to Maid of Orleans in Club Purse, 2 miles, in 3:56, beating Betty King ; Lexington, Ky., Spring Meeting, 1854, won Club Purse, 8 mile heats, beating Mary Taylor, Lewis Wetzel and two others, in 5:43J, 6:36| ; Louisville Ky., won Club Purse, 3 miles, in 5:46, beating Mary Taylor; Lexington, Ky., Fall Meeting, ran third in fist heat for the Club Purse, 4 mile heats, won b}'^ Frankfort, in 7:41 ; Vandal was withdrawn. The spring of 1855 he came out and easily defeated Frankfort and Henry Perritt for the Club Purse, 3 mile heats, in 5:36|, 5:38, an excellent race. This closed his turf career. The first of his get Avhich appeared were Ella D, Mollie Jackson and Jack the Barber, all were creditable performers ; Ella D won at 1, 2 and 8 mile heals; Mollie Jackson was the best mare of any day, she won 4 miles, in 7:34, and 3 mile heats, in 5:35i, 5:34|, 5:28f, this third heat is the fastest and best third heat ever run Jack the Barber was also a creditable performer, as was also Seven Oaks, which won seven out of eight races. He covered very few mares, and for some five or six years none, and it was not until he passed into the hands of Gen. W. G. Harding, of the Belle Meade Stud, was he regularly used for stud purposes. He sired Versailles, a fine race-horse. Verge, and Capitola, the dam of King Alfonso, Coral, the dam of Wanderer and Uncas, Virgil, the sire of Vigil, Vera Cruz and the great Hindoo. In the Belle Meade Stud he made his great reputation ; those by him in this stud were Vicksburg, Vanderbilt, Vassal, Nettie B, Ventilator, sire of Mary Anderson, Vaultress. Vagabond, Valentine, Van Leer, Van Dorn, Vindicator, Vortex, Volcano, Valerian, dam of Boatman ; Voltigeur, winner of the Clark Stake at Louisville, defeating Calvin and ten others ; Vinaigrette, winner of the Kentucky Oaks, Vidette, dam of Camargo, winner of the Fall's City Stake, mile heats, in 1:43|, l:43i, and Vandalite, one of the best race-mares which ever faced the starter, winner of the Dixie Stakes at Baltimore, 2 miles in3:351, beating Madge, Brigand and twelve others, and taking up the penalty of 5 lbs. ; won the Breckenridge Stakes, 2 miles in 3:35; ihe best time in which the two races were ever run ; Newburn, (Council Bluffs), Survivor, Highland Vintage, Grey Steel (Grey Friar), Sallie Gardner, Vocalist, and many others. Vandal was a blood bay, with little or no white, 15| hands high, and was the best son of the great Glencoe, and has proved himself a worthy son of a worthy sire. He died at Belle Meade early in the spring of 1872, just as his reputation had been established, and shown to the world that he had not disgraced his high racing lineage, from which the great Lexington had descended. The Glencoe blood has done wonders in England through old Pocahontas, and it should be preserved and perpetuated through his best son and daughters in America. 2 he Horse Breeders' Guide and Hand Book. 205 PEDIGREE OF VANDAL. -d Cj N N a 3 PQ (1) rf) p , SE J^-^ u 1 o SS •iQ a ^S ^ tc PQ <3 O yj;j tfi •is o S 5^ <1 rf, H o 3 cS Q s^ M c3 ^ ,Q a> ^ O.
