Book excerpt: Excerpt from The General Stud Book, Vol. 19 of 19: Containing Pedigrees of Race Horses, &C., &C., From the Earliest Accounts to the Year 1900 Inclusive Tn]: Nineteenth Volume of the general stud book is now published, bringing the roduces down to the end of 1900. The colours of the brood mares ave been added in this volume, as it was suggested that it would be of interest to breeders. The increased importation of horses and mares bred in u.s.a. And Australia, which, as stated in the last Volume, though accepted in the Stud Books of their own country, cannot be traced back in all cases to the thorough-bred stock exported from England, from which, more or less, they all claim to be descended, induced the Publishers to refer the question of the admission of such animals into the Stud Book to the Stewards of the Jocke Club as the highest authority on all matters connected with the urf. The Stewards, after kindly consulting most of the principal breeders, came to the conclusion that any animal claiming admission should be able to prove satisfactorily some eight or nine crosses of pure blood, to trace back for at least a century. And to shew such performances of its immediate family on the Turf as to warrant the belief in the purity of its blood. Therefore all the imported horses and mares, which are included in this Volume have been submitted to this test. In the Appendix 1060) will be found the particulars of the case of Newhaven ti, whose claim for admission shewed the necessity for some authoritative decision.
