ASHGILL. 93 



Lady Stanley, by the Miner out of Nectar, is 

 a smart looking mare, rather on the little side. 

 She is not a very certain breeder, but all her off- 

 spring that have faced the starter have been fair 

 performers and have won races. 



A bay yearling colt by Roseberry, from her, 

 struck us as being one of the best looking 

 youngsters by that sire that we have seen. He 

 has a good top, nice racing quarters, and good 

 limbs. He seems rather a light-fleshed one, but 

 he is none the worse to like for that. 



Some very useful yearlings had come up to 

 commence their education. Of these we much 

 admired the bay colt by Hagioscope out of 

 Whirlpool (a daughter of See See and Miss Pool 

 by Parmesan). He is a beautifully turned colt, full 

 of quality, and reminded us very much of his sire. 



A powerful grey colt by Barcaldine out of 

 Strathcarron by Strathconan should give a good 

 account of himself if he stands the wear and tear 

 of training ; and Mr. Gladstone's sister to Quick- 

 sand is a racing looking filly which should carry 

 the chocolate and pink sleeves to victory, and 

 which, weHrust, will emulate the steps of her 

 sister Pedsand, whose victories during the present 

 year have helped materially to swell the winning 

 account of the Asho-iH ^stable. 



The yearlings all round are a promising lot, 

 although we fear there is not to be found amongst 

 them a Manganese, a Thorn, or an Apology.
