It will be seen that Sledmore, Dan’s sire, is a grandson of Irish Bird-Catcher, the grandsire of Stockwell, which is alone sufficient to prove the excellent blood that courses through his veins. Tadmore, the sire of Brunette. Dan’s dam, is also Sire of Seclr.sion, dam of Hermit, the most celebrated sire in England. Brunette’s granddam. Birthday, is also granddam of the celebrated horses, Stockham and Panic, the corner stones of the Australian Stud Book, they being the sires of the most celebrated horses bred in Australia, including Commotion, Wellington, and Pell Mell and several others. Brunette, Dan’s dam. was imported by Messrs Harris and Innis, along with Mermaid and Traducer, which has been proved to be the best blood ever imported to the colony. Brunette has been admitted by competent judges to be one of the best brood mares ever imported south of the Line. Dan has proved himself a most brilliant racehorse, which his performances will show. He has aLo proved himself to be one of the most successful sires in the country, and is mentioned in the N.Z. Referee as having been greatly neglected by breeders.
