bred horse cannot be found in England or America. In
addition TO his fine breeding he has great sze stamina
and muscular power, which would be desirable cross for
the racing stock OF the present dsyA Of his family

al long distances, and from The promising appearance of
Grey Boards Colts there just concludes that
from good mare his get will be able to compete with the
get OF any other stallion There is promise Of sufficient
size in his Colts and should they fail to run, they will
make valuable horses for other purposes
