The Celebrated Imported Running
HORSE,
7 »
ROYALIST,
_ ■m -✓
HAS commenced the season
at Edgefield court-house, S. C. and will
lie let to niaresat THIRTY DOLLARS
the season,' payable by note the first day
of January next, which may be 'dis
charged 1)/ TWENTY DOLLARS
when the- mare is first put or taken
from the stand—FOßTY DOLLARS
«
to insure a mare to be in foal, (if she
is brought to the horse in due time")
payable by note, and due as soon as it
j is user named that she is in foal, or dis
posed of—one .dollar to the groom,
paid at the stable door. ' We have pro
vided a sufficient quantity of wheat for
any number of mares that may be left
with the horse, gratis—arid vvdl feed
with grain, pointedly as directed at 25
cents per day, to be paid when the maie
is taken from the stand. , We have fur
nished two servants to attend the mares,
and every care shall be taktn to give
satisfaction and avoid accidents or es
capes, but will not be accountable for
either.
ROYALIST is a full blooded racer—
Tie was bred by his royal highness the
prince of Walts, was got by Saltram,
son of Eclipse by Minsk, who covered
at 200 guineas the season—his dam by
Herod, grand dam by Morsk, g. grand
dam by Blank, g. g.grsnd dam by Dri
ver, g. g. g. grand dam by Smiling
Tom, g. g. g. g. grand clam by Oyster
foot, g. g. g. g. g. grand dam by Com
moner, Sec.
ROYALIST is full brother in blood
to Whiskey, Oscar, Whip, &c. and it
is gi' uup bv the best judges that havi
Seta him, that his equal for beauty,
great strength, running parts, and ac
tion, can scarcely be surpassed in En
gland or America. Me stands nearly 1
sixteen hands high, a deep mMiogony
■.bay, and as to his running performan
ces, the following will shew that they
■ire ecpial to any horse of his day.
PERFORMANCES.
In 1793, at 3 years old, the first time
Royalist sturteo, lie won 400 guineas at
New-Markct, beating iurd Grosvenor’s
chesnul filly by Pcloooooooo’s, out of
Marine, and the duku of Bedford’s colt
by Highflyer, out of Conigonde. He
started l'ur the Craven stakes, and beat
Dare Devil, Agamemmon, Coriander,
Seagul, Golden Rod, Fort William, and
six others. The next time lie started,
he won a subscription plate fo*’ 50
pounds each, beating Patriot, Cymbe
line, Brimstone, Robin Gray and seven
others. He- also beat the duke of Bed
ford’s colt by Highflyer, and the duke
of Norfolk’s grey filly by Dungannon,
a sweepstake of 200 guineas each, at
four years old. He beat lord Egre
mont’s aged hoise Seagul, a match for
200 guineas across the flat at New-
Market, in 1795. He be.d Don Quix
otte, Galico, the duke of Bedford’s
Cub, and Mr. Durand’s filly by Saltram,
for the Craven stakes.— He walked over
the course at New-Market, for 1200
guineas, and no horse dare start against
him. He also beat several others of
| tiie most capital horses in England, too
( tedious to enumerate, but may be seen
by the Racing Calenders and Sporting
Magazines, which upon a recent exam
ination it is found, that Royalist is far
the best racer that has ever been sold
to America, except Whip and Buzzard;
from tiials they had with the best hor
ses in England, they were ail nearly
. equal in speed and bottom, as the re
cords describe, beating all the best hou
ses of their day, except Whiskey.—
This advertisement will disappear in
five weeks, as it will give full informa
tion in that time.
We expect to keep the best import
ed horses at the above stand, or near it,
for several years.
