He is a dark brown or black horse, stands 16 hands high, got by English Tim WhifH r, out of Flying Scud. Tim WhifHer was by Van Galen, out of Sybil, by Uglj Buck, out of Sylph, by Titba da puts, Van Galen being by Van Tromp, out of JLittlo Casino, by Inheritor. Flying Scud was a dark bay mare, bred in Victoria by Mr J. Harper in 1865, got by Fisherman, her dam being Jeanette by Little John, Whilhelmina by Romeo, Moss Rose by Emigrant, the Lmer mare (For extended pedigree see English and Australian stud books ) Tim Whiffler was scarcely ever beaten in England. The dam of this horse being by Fisherman shows his grand blood, as a study of the stud book will show that Mmket’s great success has been from Australian bred mares, for the descendants of the grand old Fisherman, viz., Martini- Henry, Nordenfolt, and Trenton, are al descended from Fisherman on the dams side. Terms: One Mare, £3. A reduction will be made for two or more mares from one owner. Groomage fee, ss, payable on first service. GEO. APPLETON, 9638 Proprietor, AsbWtop-
