. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. ABBOTSFORD. Record 2:191-2. Abbots ford will make the season oi 1886 at tlie Oak- land Race Track, Oakland, t'al. PEDIGREE. By "Woodford Mambrino; his dam Columbia, by Young Colum "bus, Woodford Mambrino by Mambrino Chief, son of Mambrino Paymaster; dam Woodbine, (dam of Wedgewood 2:19^, by Woodford, son of Kosciusko, by Sir Arcby. Mambrino Chief was mated with Woodbine, daughter of thorough- bred Woodford, and the produce was Woodford Mambrino, a horso, taking into consideration bis 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 Woodbum, not more than seventy-five reached maturity, and many of these were not handled for speed. When wasted by disease, Wiodford Mambrino made a wonderful campaign on the turf, and he gained on a slow track at Minneapolis, a record of 2:21J. He has thirteen sons and daughters that have trotted in 2::i0 or betterâAbbots ford 2:19-1, Malice 2:19$. Manetta 2:19*, Mambrino Dudley 2:201, Convoy 2:22j, Magenta 2:241, Manfred 2:2(5, Pancoaat 2:21? (sire of Patron, :i-year-old record 2;19fr), Rachel 2:2b:Maca'2:27, Lady Mcl-atridge 2:29. Dacitt 2:294. Geo. A. Ayer 2:30. Woodford Mambrino was also the sire of Princeps, the sire of Trinket 2:14. It is 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 1,380 foals out of selectod mares. Thirty-seven of these entered the 2:80 list, and only two of them. Dex- ter and Nettie beat 2:2U. Hambletonian's percentage of 2:90 performers is within a fraction of one iu thirty-six. Woodford Mumbrluo's per- centage of 2:30 performers is within a fraction of one iu Beven. In other words, Woodford Mambrino, making opportunely the basis of cal- culation, is five times greater than Hambletonian Young Columbus by Old Columbus; dam lilack Maria, by Harris" Hambletonian
