Trainer Mose Lowenstein, in commenting en Missteps absence from the Derby said. "Both Mr. Marks and myself deepl. regretted that Misstep did not start in the Latonia Derby. He had been shipped there especially to fill his engagement in the stake, and we were particularly anxious for him again to meet Toro. But the track was in such bad condition Saturday morning, and there being no prospect of any immediate improvement in the going, we decided not to start Misstep.

Misstep is in the Turf and Field Handicap at Arlington Park, and I am hopeful that he will be able to start in that stake." ... . a
