Brunette’s grauddam, Birthday, is also granddain 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 j erfoim&nees * ill show. He has also proved himself to be one of the most ; ucoessful sires in the country, and is mentioned in h »N.Z.
