CRACK TWOYEAROLD OF 1920 EXCELLENT LINES OF DESCENT OF MR WHITNEYS SPEEDY AND UNBEATEN COLT TRYSTER By EXILE EXILETryster Tryster which won the Jamaica Youthful Stakes on June 19 and by so doing still retains his un ¬ beaten certificate is a brown by Peter Pan Tryst by St Amant In all Tryster has been sent to the post four times leading off on May 27 at Belmont Park by an easy win of a purse race from Hildur Touch Me Not and seven others Mr Whitneys brown next won the Juvenile Stakes at Relmont Park easily but in his next race was hard pressed when conceding a matter of sixteen pounds to withstand the attentions of the beginner Kirkleviugton and this makes out Kirklevington also to be a colt having some pretensions to good class for the amount of weight he was in receipt of was offset by his own inexperience in racing racingPeter Peter Pan sire of Tryster it would seem is in for a real good season for in addition 1o Tryster he also has Prudery running for him Peter Pan a rather gross horse though a really wellbred one must necessarily be well suited by mares which carry the blood of St Simon Hanover and Meddler and it is from these line steel frame feminine marcs that Peter Pan is now begetting his best bestThe The sixyearold Tryst so far as I am able to discover never faced the starter and is a daughter of the Derby winner St Amant from Grcenvale winner as a twoyearold of the Matron Stakes and two other races and is a daughter of Hamburg by Hanover and this of itself a matter of no small moment The blood of Hanover it seems bears the same relation to bloodstock breeding in this country as did that of Macaroni to England Moreover the Macaroni line is practically extinct in England as also if some effort of conservation be not quickly made will be the Hanover line in this country That such a state of affairs should be permitted to exist is almost past comprehension in the face of the performances this year of such as the Kentucky Derby and Suburban winner Paul Jones Exterminator Prudery and Tryster Verily the Hanover iniluencc is for good and good alone aloneMineola Mineola ancestress of Tryster is i daughter of that really good brood mare sire Meddler and is the dam of the Saratoga Cup and Lawrence Realization winner Johreu and traces to that fast mare Helter Skelter by Pell Mell son of Young Melbourne MelbourneThe The more I study the breeding of thoroughbred horses the more do I become convinced that success in this line of endeavor is not a mere matter of chance but rather the coupling up of certain special strains of blood and also the paying of attention to the makeup and individual characteristics of sire and dam Sires of the size and bulk of Peter Pan no matter the style of their breeding must have wire and whipcord in their mates such as Is tobuJonmlin the St SiinousjHam vers juui juuiMediers Mediers Besides thisr ewirHe the blending of the blood of Herod Matchem and Eclipse tends to bring about results or how comes it that Peter Pan is found scoring such good success of mares in whose veins flow the blood of Hanover St Simon and Meddler Also the oldtime maxim of return tlie best blood in the dam to the best blood in the dam of the sire must not be forgotten In Trysters case the Her ¬ mit of Nellie is returned to the Hermit of Cinderella and remembering always that in breeding to a mare you breed to the blood and not to individual racing excellence 1I1U 1I1Ua Himyar Alarm Domino 23 j Hira Commando 12 brown a 1801 j Mai Maij Maunie G raj I f Enquirer I Lizzie G brown 1S98 j Da DaI 1 J The Peer Emma C Lurline I tine j tFloxl Glctiuew Hermit 5 Newminster Newminsterchestnut 8 j Touchstone TouchstoneI chestnut 1804 J Jla I Beeswing Cinderella la 2 J j Seclusion I Tadmor chestnut 188S I Miss Sellon i See Saw SawMazurka G I Buccaneer Mazurka J Margery Daw I Mabille J Parmesan Rigolboche Galcpin St Frusquin 22 j st Simon 11 St Angela brown 1893 j Plebeian St Amant it 14 Isabel Parma f brown 1901 jy I Doiicaster Lady Lovcrule I Windermere Nellie j Hermit Hippia Hamburg 23 Hanover 15 Hindoo j Bourbon Belle bay 1895 J j Grecnvale T Lady Reel f Fellowcraft Mannic Gray brown 1907 I St Gatien Meddler Mineola J 1 Busybody I Hurly Burly J Riie7 1 Helter Skelter Imported fNo family number
