claim that Verdict carries more of the
blood of old Peavine and Washington
Denmark than any horse living as his
breeding will show.
Verdict's career as show horse has
rarely been equaled-winning as two
year-old and as three year-old straight
through the fair circuit without break
closing his three year-old career at the
Louisville Horse Show by winning two
first ties in his class and winning second
in his class for stations any age, thus
going against the pick of any aged stall
lion from kentucky, Tennessee and Mis-
souri,, in a ring of fifteen horses. Yer
diets show career was cut short in 1902
by sickness only showing at Richmond
and Lexington where he won first pre-
miums in aged stallion class.
In 1904 Verdict had fully recovered
from his illness and after making heavy
season he showed first at KirkSvllle,
where he won the $500 stake for best
stallion, mare or gelding, also first for
best aged stallion. His second show was
at Lexington, where he won first, then
to HarrOdsburg where he won f1rst In
aged stations, first in sweepstakes us
entries), first in combined ring and first
in model ring at the fair Verdict met
with an unfortunate accident which kept
him from going to the Louisville Horse
Show, for which he was being especially
prepared under the able supervision OF
Mat ;. Cohen. In 1906 Verdict's colts
won first in colt ring and first in stallion
and three of his get.
The farmers of Madison and adjoining
counties have rare opportunity to
patronize such stallion as Verdict, and
have decided to keep him in Madison
county permanently since as a rule all
first-class stations are sold at high prices
and 90 to other States. There never was
a time in the history of the county when
first class horses commanded such prices
ms they do today But it is only by
patronizing the best that these prices are
obtained. 1t is not what you pay for the
season of colt, it is what you get that
counts in the long run.
