MACILLEATHEAN is a handsome dark brown or black horse, and stands 16 hands high. He was got by the English Tim Whiffler out of Flying Scud. Flying Scud was a dark bay mare, bred m Victoria by Mr J. Harper m 1865, and was got by Fisherman. Tim Whiffler was scarcely ever beaten, and has won as many cups and handicaps ks any other horse m England. He won the Chester Cup, and ran a dead heat with Buckstone for the Ascot Cap. Buckstone was another grand horse, and was famous not only for his dead heat he ran with Tim Whiffler for the Ascot iC'dti but also for his match against the Earl of Glasgow's Knowsley for 500 guineas aside, 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 being by Fisherman shows his grand strain of blood, as a study of the Stud Book will show that iMusket's great success has been from Australian bred mares, for the descend ants of the grand old Fisherman, viz., Martini-Henry, Nordenfeldt and Trenton are all descended from Fisherman on the dam's side : Season money due on January Ist, 18$1 j jjaarantee money due on July Ist, 1891.
