THE PURE-BRED AND HIGH CLASS CLYDESDALE STALLION Awamoa. ; AWAMOA is by the champion horse Young Banker (1, N.Z. Stud Book), im- Sir ted from Scotland by theHon Matthew ohnes. Dam, Lena, imported from Scotland, by Luck's AU; g.d, Jessie Brown, imported, by Old Times, dam by Lochfergus Champion. Awamoa is therefore a horse of great lineage; m fact, he is one of the best bred horses m the* world. On one side he is sprung from the Prince of Wales and on the other from Lochfergus; and anyojne who pretends to knowledge m these matters un derstands that these two sires wijiws the most successful stud horses that the *rorld has ever known. Awamoa has been-a. most euccessful breeder. The colt Regent was never beaten m the ring, and lowi^bd the colors of the famous British Lion when only two years old, and was sold at 350 guineas. The filly Nompareil II has n«ver been bea*.en wherever shown. It would^^ccupy too much space for a card to enumerate ana comment on all the prizetakers tlmi have sprung from Awamoa. His yearling gets arc better than ever, and anyone thinning of using this stallion should take a^trip to Oamaru and inspect the young stock m the paddocks at Awamoa. Besides being a great breeder, Awamoa had a good career m the show ring. As a yearling he took first at- Oamaru, first at Christchurch, first at Timaru, and first at Dunedin; as a two year old, first at Christchurch, and secoad at Oamaru; as a three year old, first at Oamaru and champion horse of the,, yard; following year second at Oamaru and second at Timaru; and when seven years old wat champion at Oamaru. It will thus be seen that Awamoa has been successful m the ring; he has been very successful as a breeder; he has proved himself a sure foal getter ; hence hi 3 value m the district where he goes to travel. Terms, £4; £2 payable January 2, 1892; and £2 when mare proves m foal.. All mares changing hands to be paid for by the person engaging the horse. Groom's fee,. ss, payable at time of service.
