MISSTEP TO RACE AGAIN I Leo J. Marks Star to Be Returned to Training After a Season in the Stud. LEXINGTON, Ky., May 14.— When he has completed his first season in the stud, which will be early in June, Misstep, six-year-old chestnut horse by Upset — St. Theresa, by Marathon, will be put back into training. This decision was announced by Leo J. Marks, the great racers owner, after Misstep had been thoroughly examined at Le Mar Stock Farm by Dr. Edward W. Hag-yard and trainer Mose Lowenstein. Misstep was pronounced by both of his examiners to be "as sound as a bell of brass" and he previou.Vy had been so pronounced by Dr. D. L. Proctor, the Le Mar Farm veterinarian. James Lucas, superintendent of Le Mar Farm, says that Misstep is one of the best mannered horses in the stud that he has handled in a long experience and he, too, sees no reason why he should not give a good account of himself in racing the coming fall. He will be sent East to be trained at Belmont Park, from where he will go to Arlington Park, then to Saratoga, then to Belmont Park, and other New York meetings, closing the season in Maryland. After that he will be returned to Le Mar Stock Farm, where he will make the season of 1932. Messrs. Marks and Lowenstein went to Louisville this afternoon to inspect the horses in training at Douglas Park.
