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 in Victoria by Mr J. Harper in 1865, and was got by Fisherman. Tim Whiffler was scarcely ever beaten, and has won as many cups and handicaps as any other horse in 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 C'dn but also for his match against the Earl of Glasgow's Knowsley for 500 guineas aside, which he won in 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 Musket'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 Fishernian on the dam's side , Season money clue on January Ist, 1891; guarantee money due on July Ist, 1891.
