By referring to the English Stud Book and American
Turf Register, 1t will be evident to any one, that a better
bred horse cannot be found in England or America. In
addition to his fine breeding, he has great size, stamina
ana muscular power, which would be a desirable cross for
the racing stock Of the present day. All Of his family. ei.
ther IN England or America, have been good performers
OF long distances.
