Woodford Mambrino by Mambrino Chief, son of Mambrino Paymaster; dam Woodbine, (dam of Wedgewood 2:19), by Woodford, son of Kosciusko, by SirArchy. Mambrino Chief was mated with Woodbine, daughter of thorough- bred Woodford, and the produce was Woodford Mambrino, a horse, taking into consideration his limited opportunities in the stud, that outranks by what he has accomplished, all other stallions. Of the eighty-nine colts and fillies sired by him at Woodburn, not more than seventy-five reached maturity, and many of these were not handled for Bpeed. when wasted by disease, Woodford Mambrino made a wonderful campaign on the turf, and he gained on a slow track at Minneapolis, a record of 2:21^. He has thirteen sons and daughters that have trotted in 2:30 or betterâAbbotsford 2:19A, Malice 2:193, Manetta 2:19*. Mambrino Dudley 2:20£.

Woodford Mambrino was also the sire of Princeps, the sire of Trinket 2:14. It ib proper to draw a comparison between Hambletonian and Woodford Mambrino. The first-named stallion founded a great family, but in order to do It he got 1,330 foals out of selected mares. Thirty-seven of these entered the 2:30 list, and only two of them, Dex- ter and Nettie beat 2:20. Hambletonian's percentage of 2:30 performers Is within a fraction of one in thirty-six. Woodford Murabrino's per- centage of 2:30 performers is within a fraction of one in seven. In other words, Woodford Mambrino, making opportunity the basis of cal- culation, is five times greater than Hambletonian Young Columbus by Old Columbus; dam Black Maria, by Harris' Hambletonian, son of Bishop's H
