Rater, is beautiful chestnut, with remarkably fine
short, and glossy coat of haT full 10 hands I2
nigh with strong clean bone, great muscular power, and
inferior III action to no horse in Virginia. He bears
stronger resemblance TO his noble than any OF
his get Rauer has had the advantage of serving but
few blooded Mares and but of his colts have as vet
appeared on the turf If may be allowed Judge of
these as indicative OF his future the geter OF
comparison with the long attached ~ 90 o",.,,~y,
Johanna, Monster TOnson, &C., SC, frequently running
brother vs. brother brother vs. sister and sister vs.
must beat Primero, the only OF Rather, that has
been trained, at Broad Rock the Spring of 1892
against Mr. Wiuree's Tobacconist, Col. Johnsons Herr
Cline, and NJ Botts's Johanna, of Phills In this
he second in the first heat drawnn the 81, but

he beat with ease.

Black Hawk by Hospur Sir Erin, by Archy; Sir Wal
ter, by Monsieur TonsOn: Damon, by Johanna. He.won
the first heat with great easen starting for the second
he was run against the railing, sustained injury
from which it is probable he will recover and
drown Far back only to be able TO fall with
in his distance He was, however, started, thus dis
abled for the third heat, distanCed under pull the
three last named colts; and | told by a gentleman
who the race did no if pressed could have placed
the contending horse behind the distance stand So il
will be seen that the only colt of Raer's trained
over these courses has beaten the choice OF the get
chey, Johanna, Monster Tonson, Contention and Hot
spur, OF the same age, when they had the advantage Of
choosing from 100 c 40 mares, mostly thorough bred.
