TO STAND THIS SEASON., .The Thoroughbred Horse Macilleathean "Will stand m Ashburton, and Travel the Surrounding Districts this Season. I\,CACILLEATHEAN is a handsome Ixl. dark brown or black horse, and stands 16 hands high. He was got by the English Tim Whiffler out of Flying Scud. Flying Scud ws a dark bay mare, bred m Victoria by Mr J. Harper m 1805, and was got by Fisherman. Tim Whiffler was scarcely ever beaten and has won as many cups and handicaps as any other horse m Bng]and. He won che Chester Cup, and ran a dead heat with Buckstone for the Ascot Cap. Buckstone was another grand horse, and was famous no only for his dead heat he ran with Tim Whiffler for the Ascot C'dn but also for his match against the Earl of* Glasgow's Knowsley for 500 guineas a*ide, which he won m a canter. Tim, Whiffler was the sire of Briseis, who wot. the Melbourne Cup and Derby, and the dam of Macilleathean beiug by Fisherman shows his grand strain o<" blood, as a study of the Stud Book will show that Musket's grea success has been from Australian bred mares, for the descend ants of the grand old Fisherman, viz., Martini-Henry, Nordenfeldfc and Trenton are all descended from Fisherman on the dam's side Season money due on January Ist, 1891 ; guarantee money due on July Ist, 1891.
