THE FASHIONABLY-BRED STALLIONS, 



NUTBOURNE and ELDRIDCE, 



WDI make the season of 1S89 at my farm, ttiree miles east of Tarrytown, Westchester Co., N. Y., 

 and twenty-flve miles from New York city. Several prominent Kentucky breeders have urged 

 me to \ei Nut bourne go to that State, but I have concluded to keep lum at home. His full 

 brother, Nutwood, is the only horse, living or dead, with a 7-ecord under 2:20 having Jive of his 

 produce tvith records under 2:30, thus showing his capacity to get a high rate of speed. Be- 

 eides, he is the sire of 24 in the 2:30 list, eight of which were added last year. 



Terms: For A^M^towrwe, $150 for the season ; for Eldridge, %\QQ the season. Mares not 

 proving with foal to either horse may be reiiirned the following season free of charge. 



NUTBOURNE, 



g. h., 16 hands high, foaled 1877, by Belmont (sire of Nutwood, record 2:18^), dam Miss Russell, 

 the dam oi 3Iaud S., record 2:08?^, by Pilot, Jr., second dam Sallie Russell, by Boston (thor- 

 caghbred), etc. As will be seen, Nutbom-ne is not only out of the dam of Maud S., but he is a 

 full brother to Nutwood, record 2:18J£, and Cora Belmont, record 2:24}4. As a five-year-old, 

 Nutbourne trotted, with very little handling, in 2:21)34, last quarterin 3.5 seconds; but since then 

 has not been trained, as he has been used exclusively for the stud. Nufbourne''s full brother. 

 Nutwood, is so popular that his services have been raised to $500. The editor of the Turf, 

 Field and Farm, in speaking of the foals at my farm by Nutboarne, says of one, "It is a trotting 

 gem of the first water," and of another, "There is no disposition to do anything but trot. I 

 never saw so rapid a colt of its age." 



ELDRIDGE, 



b. h., 1534 hands high, foaled 1877, by Edward Everett (sire of Judge Fullerton, record 2:18), 

 dam Jessie Kirk, dam of Majolica, record 2:15. Jessie Kirk is by Clark Chief, son of Mambrino 

 Chief. Edward Everett, the sire of Eldridge. is the sire of twelve trotters in the 

 2:30 list, among them the late Commodore Vanderbilt's favorite road horse Mountain Boy, 

 record 2 :20-'.i. "Eldridge is a grandly formed horse, a rich bay, with black points, and has trotted 

 atrial on inytrack at Tarrytown in 2:20^4. His dam being the damof M ijolica, heshouldmake 

 a great sire. He has sired only four foals, and I sold one oftriem— the two-year-old colt Cart- 

 ridge,— for $4,000. One of the best judges in the country says of him: "Eldridge has a 

 splendid hock, and a good, flat leg— in fact, the best set of legs I have ever seen; and his re- 

 markably loose, easy way of going shows that he has an elasticity that he can inapart." 



Mares sent to be bred to Nutbourne or Eldridge can be kept on Mr. George W. Campbell's 

 farm, just on the opposite side of the road from my place, on reasonable terms. Mr. Campbell 

 makes a specialty of taking care of trotting stock.
