GLENCOE II

'Glencoe' (foaled 1864) was a notable Australian Thoroughbred racehorse who won the 1868 Melbourne Cup. Under his breeder/owner, Richard Dines, Glencoe won the 1867 AJC Sires' Produce Stakes then was sold to prominent horseman, John Tait. In 1868, he won several major races, including Australia's most prestigious event, the Melbourne Cup in which he beat twenty-five horses.
Glencoe raced as a six-year-old, retiring as a winner of many of his country's most important races. At stud, he proved not to be successful.
