. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. ABBOTSFORD. Record 2:19 1-2. Ai»hisf»v<l will make tlie season ol I 8S6 at the Oak. land Race Track, Oakland, 4'aJ. 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 r,f Kosciusko, by SirArcby. Mambrino Chief was mated with Woodbine, daughter of thorough- bred Woodford, and the produce was Woodford Mambrino, a hqrsc, taking into consideration his limited opportunities in Ihe stud, that outranks by what he has accomplished, all other stallions. Of the eighty-nine colts and fillies eired by him at Woodburn, not more than seventy-five reached maturity, and many of these were not handled for speed. When wasted by disease, Woodford -Mambrino made a wonderful campaign on thB turf, and he gained on a slow track at Minneapolis, arecord of 2:2lh. He has thirteen sons and daughters that have trotted in '2:90 or better—Abbotsford 2:19J, Malice 2:19^, Manetta 2:194, Mambrino Dudley 2:2nj. Convoy 2:22',"Magenta 2, Manfred 2:25, Pancoast 2:21? (sire of Patron, ff-vear-old record 2;), Rachel 2:2to|, Inca2:27, Lady McFatridge 2:29, Dacia 2:291. Geo. A. Ayer 2:30. Woodford Mambrino was also the sire of Priuceps", the sire of Trinket 2:14 . It is proper todraw 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::ill list, and only two of them. Dex- ter and Nettle beat 2:20. Hambletonian's percentage of 2:80 performers is within a fraction of one in thirty-six. Woodford Mumbrino's per- centage of 2-MO performers is within a fraction of one in Beven. In other words, Woodford Mambrino, nmkiny opporluuily tbe basis of cal- culation, is five times greater than Hambletonian Young Columbus by Old Columbus; dam Black Maria, bv Harris' Hambletonia
