POT8OO'S

,—the name of a horse whose performances as a RACER, and progeny as a STALLION, will transmit his celebrity to succeeding generations in various directions: he was bred by the late Lord Abingdon, foaled in 1773, and got by Eclipse out of Sportsmistress, the dam of Lexicon, Jocundo, Roscius, Siddons, Peg Woffington, Sir Thomas, and Sulky. This horse was so named to gratify a little pique against the late Colonel O'Kelly, in allusion to the place of his nativity, ironically called the Land of Potatoes. Upon the turf he proved himself equal to any horse of his time: as a STALLION, few, if any, have stood in higher estimation. Exclusive of an infinity of annual winners, who have ran as COLTS and FILLIES for large stakes, but without a name, he is the SIRE of Parsley, Smack, Telescope, Turnip-top, Asparagus, Coriander, Flea, Misseltoe, Tiny, Alderman, Gumcistus, Cayenne, Chigwell, Golden Rod, Triptolemus, Cynthius, Druid, Emma, Guy, Lady, Lilliput, Polyanthus, Vesper, and Waxy. Aurora, Capsicum, Sister to Druid, Doricles, Edwin, Kidney, Mealy, Vixen, and Warwick. Doubtful, Faunus, Lambourn, Brother to Lilliput, Oliver, Molly Maybush, Rowland, Thereabouts, Golden Dab, and Yorkshire Bite. Dutchess of Limbs, Outcast, Schedoni, Trip-it, Dr. O'Liffey, Scrub, Snuff-box, Worthy, Champion, Crazy Jane, Canterbury, Lampedo, and Trifle.
