ARABIAN, TURK, AND BARB 155 



a peculiarly marked and energetic vitality. From the Nineteenth Volume of the 

 General Stud Book, for example, which has appeared while I write these lines, 

 Mr. F. H. Birley, after weeding out all with American native blood, traces 693 

 mares to the Burton Barb Marc, 515 to the Dam of the two True Blms, and only 

 499 to Tregonireir s Natural Barb Mare ; and this is out of a total of 5,898 mares 

 traceable to 54 famous ancestresses. Here are the lists, in greater detail, of those 

 classic winners which trace back to Trcgomotir s Natural Barb Marc through Sir 

 \Y. Ramsden's Byerly Turk mare.

It will be interesting to add that although the family from which these great 

 horses have descended was originally picked out rather for its running qualities than 

 for the sires who have sprung from it, the following stallions who have sired
