In the free Iiandlcan July 27 he duplicated his previous race in easily defeating- six of his former opponents in the same time with 109 pounds up. His last performance and third victory at The Meadows track was August 3, in a handicap, where he gave live pounds or more in weight to his tield, comprising the best at the track and scored an easy win in 1:01 with 113 pounds on his back. Jockey Rettig rode him in all three races. Glorio has repeatedlv and decisively defeated the colts which linisbed in front of him in his two starts at Oakland witli the exception of T. II. Williams crack two-year-old Firestone. The two will probably meet at Oakland this winter and a race or two with the Williams colt will afford an opportunity to get at the real worth or Glorio.
